Elkraftsystem, 7,5 hp

The course package ELKRA is in total 7.5 hp and consists of the following courses:

• EPO601, Electric Power System - Overview, 3 hp
• ELA701, Electric Power System - Analysis, 4.5 hp

An admission for the course package results in admission for both courses and it is optional just to complete EPO601 or both courses. EPO601 covers lectures and shorter theoretical assignments. ELA701 covers longer assignments where the theory is implemented in simulation studies using DigSiILENT PowerFactory.

Course content

The course covers control and stability aspects of the power system and is focusing on the dynamic operation of the power system and the factors that affect the control and stability. Topics included in the course are:

• loadflow in the power system
• voltage control and voltage stability in the power system
• transient stability in the power system
• frequency control and frequency stability in the power system
• impact on the stability criteria in the power system by the performance and control of active and reactive power from the different components in the power system
• impact on the loadflow and stability in the power system from the future changes in the power system
• measures to maintain the power system stability during future changes in the power system

In the course ELA701 the theory will be implemented in simulation studies using DigSILENT Power Factory.

Schedule

The course will have hybrid lectures where you can participate either at Campus or online via Zoom. The lectures are recorded and are available at Canvas afterwards. The schedule will be posted closer to the start of the course and will contain 4 lecture days (9-16) and 4 shorter questions sessions online.

Examination

EPO601: Shorter assignments with analytical calculations using software such as Matlab, Phyton etc.

ELA701: Longer assignments including simulations studies in DigSILENT PowerFactory

Prerequisites

The course is at advanced level and is intended to introduce to power system control and stability and the impact of the ongoing changes in the power system. To get the most out of the course, a basic knowledge of power system operation including load flow and fault cases is recommended, typically corresponding to a bachelor in electric power engineering or work at a grid company/producer.

Industri och akademi

Detta kurspaket är framtaget i samverkan med industrin inom ramen för ett av våra utbildningsprojektet. Projektet syftar till att ge kurser på avancerad nivå till en mix av studenter och yrkesverksamma för att förstärka den svenska industrins konkurrenskraft.

Vi tillämpar validering av arbetslivserfarenhet. Även om du inte har formell behörighet, exempelvis betyg eller examensbevis, kan du ha de kunskaper som motsvarar behörighetskraven för kursen. Det innebär att vi kan bedöma din kompetens utifrån både formella meriter och arbetslivserfarenhet.

För att vi ska kunna validera, bifogar du din meritförteckning under fliken "Meriter" på antagning.se eller i vårt lokala anmälningsformulär när du gör din anmälan. Blankett finns på vår hemsida www.hv.se/elektroteknikkurser.
