Contribution of the course to the program objectives
In view of the LO frame of reference of the "Master Electrical Engineering", this course contributes to the development, acquisition and evaluation of the following learning outcomes:
- AA1.1, AA1.2, AA1.3
- AA2.1, AA2.2
- AA3.3
- AA6.1
Specific LO of the course
Specifically, at the end of the course, students will be able to:

Identify, describe and analyze problematic situations regarding voltage disturbances (diagnosis, curative approach), transient behaviour and faulted operation in power systems
Apply the principles of power system protection
Prevent problematic situations at the planning or project stage of electrical grids and installations (preventive approach)
Propose realistic solutions, from the technical and economic perspectives, and apply appropriate measures to improve power systems stability and solve power quality problems

To this end, they will be able to:

Describe precisely, explain, model and quantify underlying physical phenomena and mechanisms,
Use specialized engineering software tools,
Interpret and correctly apply the standardization concepts,
Analyze and interpret information from technical and scientific literature relating to issues addressed in the course.

Contenu

Transient analysis of power systems
Dynamics of synchronous machines
Unbalanced operation of power systems and unsymmetrical faults analysis
Power systems protection
Power systems small-disturbance stability and large-disturbance (transient) stability
Frequency stability
Voltage stability
Power quality: basic concepts of electromagnetic compatibility, harmonics, voltage rapid fluctuations and flicker, voltage dips and interruptions, overvoltages

Reliability and quality of supply costs for a power system

Méthodes d'enseignement

Lectures
Practical sessions (supervised classroom exercise sessions)

Engineering practice: supervised homework and projects in groups

Modes d'évaluation
des acquis des étudiants

Students are assessed during a written and/or oral examination dealing with both theoretical concepts and the discussion of practical situations (practical industrial case study, numerical exercises).
40% of the final grade will be awarded to the homework and projects assessment.

Autres infos

This course is the logical follow-up of course LELEC2520. It is recommended to have previously completed the latter or an equivalent

According to the opportunities and practical availability, the course can be completed by a technical visit and / or seminars given by experts from industry
