This book covers structural and foundation systems used in high-voltage transmission lines, conductors, insulators, hardware and component assembly. In most developing countries, the term “transmission structures” usually means lattice steel towers. The term actually includes a vast range of structural systems and configurations of various materials such as wood, steel, concrete and composites. This book discusses those systems along with associated topics such as structure functions and configurations, load cases for design, analysis techniques, structure and foundation modeling, design deliverables and latest advances in the field. In the foundations section, theories related to direct embedment, drilled shaf ts, spread foundations and anchors are discussed in detail. Featuring worked out design problems for students, the book is aimed at students, practicing engineers, researchers and academics. It contains beneficial information for those involved in the design and maintenance of transmission line structures and foundations. For those in academia, it will be an adequate text-book / design guide for graduate-level courses on the topic. Engineers and managers at utilities and electrical corporations will find the book a useful reference at work.

Design of Mechanical Power Transmissions addresses the classic problem of the need for an intermediate device between a mechanical power source and driven load that converts the motor output torque and speed to the torque and speed needs of the load. The content emphasizes the mathematical modeling and design performance analysis of the more commonly available fixed and variable ratio mechanical transmissions. A special feature of this monograph is that in every analytic development the solution process begins with the application of fundamental engineering principles to appropriate physical models. All presentations include a combination of text explanation of the solution development together with illustrations of the symbolic mathematical process. The goal is to provide an understanding of the basic theory and models that are appropriate to the engineering application of the relevant subject matter in a succinct manner. The knowledge content covered includes: Chapter 1: definitions of force, torque, work and power: relation between torque, speed and power. Chapter 2: rolling contact, involute gear tooth geometry, diametral pitch, gear ratios, simple and compound gear trains. Chapter 3: planetary gear system analysis, general gear ratio relationships, classic gear ratio outputs, interpretation. Chapter 4: example applications, manual mechanical hoist, variable high gear ratio hybrid planetary. Chapter 5: fixed ratio transmission performance, effect of input/output rotation on reaction torque, energy loss inclusion. Chapter 6: variable speed ratio transmissions, fluid coupling, torque converter, strengths and weaknesses. Chapter 7: transmission selection, variable speed power output and load, start up time. This monograph is not intended to be a textbook or comprehensive reference source. Its purpose is to assist the once acquainted reader in recalling relevant knowledge content or to provide concise complimentary assistance to those acquiring the knowledge for the first time in a structured learning environment.

Although many textbooks deal with a broad range of topics in the power system area of electrical engineering, few are written specifically for an in-depth study of modern electric power transmission. Drawing from the author’s 31 years of teaching and power industry experience, in the U.S. and abroad, Electrical Power Transmission System Engineering: Analysis and Design, Second Edition provides a wide-ranging exploration of modern power transmission engineering. This self-contained text includes ample numerical examples and problems, and makes a special effort to familiarize readers with vocabulary and symbols used in the industry. Provides essential impedance tables and templates for placing and locating structures Divided into two sections—electrical and mechanical design and analysis—this book covers a broad spectrum of topics. These range from transmission system planning and in-depth analysis of balanced and unbalanced faults, to construction of overhead lines and factors affecting transmission line route selection. The text includes three new chapters and numerous additional sections dealing with new topics, and it also reviews methods for allocating transmission line fixed charges among joint users. Uniquely comprehensive, and written as a self-tutorial for practicing engineers or students, this book covers electrical and mechanical design with equal detail. It supplies everything required for a solid understanding of transmission system engineering.

This second edition of Design for Mechanical Power Transmission contains more than twice the content of the original monograph. New materials include the addition of a chapter on Flexible Element Drives covering flat and v belt systems, chain link drives and an overview of CVT., more design example applications with solutions in all chapters, material on selecting commercially available transmissions and added case studies of matching power source to load requirements where performance characteristics vary with speed. In addressing the classic engineering problem of matching power source outputs to driven load requirements this revision continues to emphasize: modeling and analyzing the kinematics and operational performance of mechanical transmissions, applying the resulting mathematical relationships to the solution of steady state power transmission design problems and demonstrating how power source outputs and load requirements that vary with speed can be matched to accommodate start up transients. The following list of chapters and subheadings summarize the specific topics covered. Chap. 1 Definitions - force, torque, work, power, torque / power versus powerChap. 2 Gear kinematics - involute properties simple & compound trains, reverted compound trainsChap. 3 Epicyclic gear trains - epicyclic kinematics, compound epicyclic trains, planetary gear trainsChap. 4 Gear train applications - hybrid reduction systems, continuous ratio planetary, engine speed governor, Chap. 5 Fixed ratio transmission - operational performance, restraint requirements, power loss effectsChap. 6 Variable ratio transmissions - fluid couplings, torque convertersChap. 7 Flexible element drives flat and v belt drives, chain drives, CVTsChap. 8 Matching power source to load - performance criteria, speed effects, startup time

Engineers and managers at utilities and electrical corporations will find the book to be a useful reference at work. This book presents the current state of electrical technology applied to the calculation and design of high voltage power lines, both aerial and underground, by means of an original approach based on the simple exposure of theoretical bases that allow the reader to apply them in the subsequent resolution of numerous real engineering examples. The examples in each chapter are developed in detail and have been selected in order to address the diversity of electrical and mechanical calculations required by the design of high voltage power lines. The book consists of chapters dedicated to the electrical design of lines, mechanical calculation of conductors, supports and foundations, design of grounding facilities and calculation of underground lines. There is no other book that gathers, in such a detailed way and with a focus eminently practical, all aspects related to the design of high voltage lines.
