Objectives of the Course To learn principles of transient analysis, overvoltages and currents and how these effects on power systems. To simulate travelling waves and lightning transients and their effects on power system will be aim of the course.
Course Content This course intends to teach the students power system stability problem and handling, creating controller for stability issues and usage of a programming language on power system applications. The course covers the following topics: Introduction to power system structures and simulation, Synchronous machine modeling, Excitation system modeling, Turbine-Governor modeling, Interconnected multi-machine modeling, Transient stability analysis, Linearized modeling and the control problem, Signal analysis, Power System Stabilizer (PSS) design, Voltage Stability, Frequency Stability.
Course Methods and Techniques Learners will be provided with as many opportunities for hands-on practice as possible with the aim of striking a balance between learner-centeredness and sufficient guidance.
