1 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 will be assessed:
- Based on homework carried out in groups of two during the semester;
- Individually on the basis of a written or oral examination relating to the content of lectures and practice sessions
To constitute the final mark, the weighting given to the homework is:
- 50% if the mark of the individual exam is higher than 10/20;
- 0% if the mark of the individual exam is less than 8/20;
- linearly progressive between 0%, if the individual exam mark is 8/20, and 50%, if the exam mark is 10/20
The homework cannot be redone; the mark is acquired in the quadrimester and kept in the event of a second session.
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
