Learning outcomes
On successful completion of the course, the students should
be able to describe large electrical power systems and their main components
understand three-phase systems, power flow as well as active and reactive power
have and understanding of power flow/load flow problems and be able to find solutions for such
be able to analyse faults in a power system
understand how integration of variable power sources and increased use of electric vehicles impact the power grid
Course contents
Transmission lines, models of the distribution system, three-phase systems, per unit systems, modelling of power system elements, power flow, fault analysis, introduction to the integration of renewable energy sources, introduction to the impact of electric vehicles on the power system.
Teaching methods
Lectures and exercises. Digital tools will be used for calculations and simulations. The workload is estimated to be 27 hours per credit for the average student.
Examination requirements
Mandatory exercises must be handed in and approved. The number of mandatory exercises will be given in Canvas at the start of the course.
Assessment methods and criteria
4 hours individual written exam. Grading by letters.
Evaluation
