Student Contribution Band: | Band 2 |
Administered by: | College of Science and Engineering |
The knowledge provided by this subject includes: Fundamentals of power engineering; Single phase and three phase power system modelling and analysis; Construction, modeling and performance analysis of rotating electric machines (direct current and alternating current), as well as induction motors; Steady state characteristics of synchronous machines; Transmission lines parameters, transmission modelling and performance analysis; Introduction to power flow analysis, bus admittance matrix, and use of numerical method for power flow analysis; Introduction to stability analysis of power systems; Power quality and control of power system; Symmetrical components and their networks; Fault analysis (single line to ground, line to line, double line to ground).
Learning Outcomes
- be able to manipulate the equations governing power transmission lines and so show competence in the various levels of modelling available;
- demonstrate an understanding of the fundamental concepts of power system transients and their analysis techniques;
- from a detailed knowledge of their characteristics, be able to analyse the steady state performance of induction and synchronous machines.
