The student's learning outcomes on passing the course
Knowledge:
The student
- has advanced knowledge of power systems dynamics and control
- has advanced knowledge of control systems
- has advanced knowledge of, and is able to analyze the influences of wind and solar power in the power system
- can model and implement a dynamic model in a dedicated simulation tool
- has a good understanding of price mechanisms in the power market.
Skills:
The student
- can develop dynamic equations of individual components like, generators, exciter, governor, etc and integrate them to form complete model
- can design control strategies applied on modern power systems
- is able to simulate the power system model in simulation software, mainly in MATLAB.
General competence:
The student can conduct a project in collaboration with other students.
Teaching and learning methods
- Lectures, exercises and laboratory training
- Flipped classroom and digital learning platforms will be used extensively
- Simulation techniques using Matlab and Simulink
- Individual and/or group training in form of home assignments/project work.
Workload
Coursework requirements - conditions for taking the exam
- Submission of at least 5 numbers of exercises.
- Submission of Report for one Project work in a group
Exam
This exam consists of two parts:
Part 1: Individual written report submission. Counts as 70% of the final grade.
Part 2: Individual written exam. Duration: 3 Hour. Counts as 30% of the final grade
All written aids and calculator are permitted.
Both partial exams must be passed to get a final grade in the subject.
Grades from A to F, where A is the best grade, E is the lowest passed grade, and F is failed.
Examiners
Conditions for resit/rescheduled exams
If a report is graded as failed, the student will be given one more chance to improve the report.
If the student fails the written exam, they can re-take this exam maximum two more times. A resit will be arranged in January the following semester. The students do not need to redo the written report in order to re-take the written exam.
