The course provides the theoretical background required to model and analyse large power systems. This includes modelling of transmission lines for steady-state and transient conditions, balanced and unbalanced power system fault analysis, the basic power quality indices and power quality analytical techniques. In addition, this course deals with the voltage control techniques used for renewable rich distribution feeders.
Particular topics to be investigated will include:
1. Per-unit calculations
2. Transmission line modelling and analysis
3. Transmission line surge propagation
4. Distribution feeder voltage control
5. Balanced faults
6. Theory of symmetrical components & unbalanced faults
7. Power quality in distribution networks
