Content
This course is structured into two main sections:
1. Power System Supervision, Operation and Protection (Lect.-No. 080231 & 080232)
- Introduction to electrical power systems and operational tasks
- System architecture of power system control centers
- Algorithms for power system calculation, supervision and operation
- Substation automation and protection architecture
- Power system protection functions and algorithms for short circuit calculation
- Future trends in control centers
2. Power System Stability, Dynamics and Control (Lect.-No. 080146 & 080147)
- Stability in electrical power systems
- Dynamic power system modelling and simulation
- Small signal and transient rotor angle stability
- Frequency stability
- Voltage stability and voltage control
- Measures to improve stability
Goals
- Understanding the tasks, functions and mathematical calculations/algorithms at all levels of grid control and operation
- Learning about the different types of stability, the models used to analyze system dynamics and stability, the operation and influence of control and measures to improve stability
