This course is a basic introductory course on the concepts and structure of power systems stability. The material of the course aims to introduce students to the basic concepts of power systems stability, the structure of power systems stability, the operating characteristics of power systems stability and analysis and models of basic components of power systems stability.
It also refers to introductory concepts of interconnected power systems, so that the student will acquire an overall understanding of the procedures and methodologies for analyzing and resolving a power systems stability problem. In this sense, the course is the basis on which specific methodologies and techniques of power systems stability are developed in individual special courses.
Finally, the aim of the course is to promote understanding of the importance of power systems stability.
Upon successful completion of this course the student will be able to:
- understand the basic and critical characteristics of power systems stability, their connection with the overall production, transmission and distribution of electrical energy.
- apply tools and techniques to analyze and solve load flow problems
- Analyze and calculate the basic elements of power system stability.
- Work with the fellow students to create and present a team project in a power system stability study including system analysis, distribution load flow, stability, and basic mathematical models
