Glover, Sarma, "Power Systems Analysis & Design", 3rd Ed, 2002

Goals

The intent of this course is to provide an understanding of techniques for analyzing power flow and voltage control in three-phase power systems, power system parameter modeling, load flow and stability studies and the behavior of the power system under transient conditions.  The PowerWorld simulator (included with your text) and MATLAB will be used to develop load flow programs based on utility data provided to the IEEE, and for fault studies.

Topics

• Fundamentals of three-phase power systems, History, Per Unit
• Control of Real and Reactive Power, Voltage Control
• Network and component modeling
• System solutions (load flow project using PowerWorld and MATLAB)
• Symmetrical Components
• Fault Studies (project using PowerWorld and MATLAB)
• Power System Stability
• Deregulation
• Power Quality

ABET: Course Learning Objectives: Students must demonstrate the ability to

1.    Perform fundamental three-phase power system calculations.

2.    Solve practical steady-state power system problems.

3.    Conduct a load flow study and implement in PowerWorld Simulator and MATLAB.

4.    Conduct a fault study and solve using PowerWorld Simulator and MATLAB.
