Sommario/riassunto

Covers all aspects of electrical systems for nuclear power plants written by an authority in the field Based on author Omar Mazzoni's notes for a graduate level course he taught in Electrical Engineering, this book discusses all aspects of electrical systems for nuclear power plants, making reference to IEEE nuclear standards and regulatory documents. It covers such important topics as the requirements for equipment qualification, acceptance testing, periodic surveillance, and operational issues. It also provides excellent guidance for students in understanding the basis of nuclear plant electrical systems, the industry standards that are applicable, and the Nuclear Regulatory



Commission' rules for designing and operating nuclear plants.' Electrical Systems for Nuclear Power Plants offers in-depth chapters covering: elements of a power system; special regulations and requirements; unique requirements of a Class 1E power system; nuclear plants containment electrical penetration assemblies; on-site emergency AC sources; on-site emergency DC sources; protective relaying; interface of the nuclear plant with the grid; station blackout (SBO) issues and regulations; review of electric power calculations; equipment aging and decommissioning; and electrical and control systems inspections. This valuable resource: -Evaluates industry standards and their relationship to federal regulations -Discusses Class 1E equipment, emergency generation, the single failure criterion, plant life, and plant inspection -Includes exercise problems for each chapter Electrical Systems for Nuclear Power Plants is an ideal text for instructors and students in electrical power courses, as well as for engineers active in operating nuclear power plants.

Sommario/riassunto

This handbook addresses the interrelatedness of nationalism, identity, language, linguistics, and multilingualism in an African context. It covers multilingualism, language and identity, language endangerment, language shift, language maintenance, language contact, diglossia, language decline, language death, language vitality, and much more in, linguistically, one of the richest regions on earth. The variety of alphabets and oral traditions immersed in folklore, made more linguistically complex through issues of inter-borders, and the long history of foreign intrusions and colonialism, has meant a collision of identities and linguistic peculiarities. This book considers these facets in relation to language endangerment in numerous geographies within the African continent. It confronts these questions under the rubric of multilingualism, linguistic geography, and a panoply of other sub-studies. By investigating a multitude of topics around the themes of multilingualism, identity, and language endangerment in Africa, this volume brings together these dimensions to showcase interdisciplinary research in studies of African languages and linguistics. Relevant to applied linguists, socio-linguists, cultural linguistics, language teachers, anthropologists, and scholars in African cultural studies more broadly, this is a vital, urgent text challenging language, and identity, endangerment.
