Content and learning outcomes
Course contents
The course is divided into four parts as follows:
Introduction with course information and presentation of the electric power system as a part of a sustainable energy system.
Basic modelling and analysis of the electric power systems: from physics of electricity, basic circuit analysis to modelling of AC systems to power flow assessment.
Studies of the performance of the power system including aspect of new development with e.g. integration about renewable energy, operation and stability and market.
Conclusion with course summary.
Intended learning outcomes
After passing the course, the student shall be able to
describe conceptually the technical basic properties and the performance of the electric power system with main function to deliver electricity between production, consumption and storing
describe the basics of synchronous generators
describe the basics of the three phase transmission system
carry out calculations per unit in the electric power system
describe the basic impact of different power loads on the electric power system
formulate and solve current flow analysis problem
describe the basic behaviour of the the electric power system based on simulation tools.
TEN1 - Written exam, 3.0 credits, Grading scale: P, F
Based on recommendation from KTH’s coordinator for disabilities, the examiner will decide how to adapt an examination for students with documented disability.
The examiner may apply another examination format when re-examining individual students.
Ethical approach
All members of a group are responsible for the group's work.
In any assessment, every student shall honestly disclose any help received and sources used.
In an oral assessment, every student shall be able to present and answer questions about the entire assignment and solution.
