Introduction
The course builds on Electrical systems and installations 1. The course will be approx. 50% project work and case solving in groups (problem/challenge based learning) and 50% lectures which support the project work and which build on topics from electrical plants and installations 1
Content
NB! This is an elective course and may be cancelled if fewer than 10 students are enrolled by August 20th.
The academic content of this course is twofold, in addition to including project work.
Electrical installations:
Introduction to modeling transmission lines and 3-phase systems. This includes load and short-circuit calculations, load distribution, as well as voltage drop, power and energy loss. The course further includes analysis and simulation of dynamic behavior. The course provides an overview of protection for distribution systems and in the network, as well as protection of cables, generators and motors.
Project work and professional management:
The students are divided into groups and together they will work practically designing various electrical installations of different sizes and complexity.
Learning outcome
- Be able to model transmission lines and 3-phase systems to carry out load and short-circuit calculations, load distribution, as well as analysis of voltage drops, power and energy losses.
- Have knowledge of analysis and simulation of dynamic behavior. Have knowledge of protection for distribution systems and in the network, as well as protection of cables, generators and motors.
- Be able to use relevant simulation tools related to electrical systems and interpret the results.
- Have knowledge of the integration of intermittent renewable energy resources (solar and wind) into the power grid
- Be able to simulate intermittent renewable energy sources (solar and wind) and analyse theire impact in the electrical power network
- Have knowledge of energy storage sources (battery, hydrogen).
- Have knowledge of voltage stability analysis of power system.
