Assessment
The course unit assessment comprises an assignment. The assignment submission date is Friday 30 October 2009 (by 5 pm).
All work submitted must be the individual student’s own work. Each submission MUST include a completed Blue Cover Sheet to confirm that work submitted is that of the individual student and has no part been copied or reproduced by plagiarism.
Penalties
Assignment will receive 10% (of the assignment assessment) penalty for each day late.

ELEC8346 Power Systems Modelling
|
|
| Credit: 6 points Availability: Semester 2 (See Timetable) Old unit code: 624.606, MATH8346 | |
| Outcomes: Students develop an in-depth technical competence in modelling power systems in different operating modes. | |
| Content: This unit covers steady-state network model; sparsity programming methodology; modelling in phase co-ordinates; applications of network models in load flow; short-circuit fault; harmonic and transient stability analyses; dynamic modes of operation subsequent to a disturbance; forms of instability; factors on which the limits of stable operating modes depend; modelling requirements for dynamic analysis; typical solutions; transformation between alternative systems of variables; excitation controller and prime-mover and governor modelling; network modelling in dynamic analysis; requirements relating to detail of modelling; dynamic load modelling; complete multi-machine formulation in d-q axes; axis transformation; numerical integration; compensator modelling in dynamic analysis; contribution of compensators to dynamic response; eigenvalue analysis in small-disturbance stability studies; and investigations of voltage collapse with dynamic models. | |
| Assessment: This includes an examination and/or assignments/projects. The examination assesses the student's ability to formulate models for representing power systems in a range of operating conditions. The assignments/projects test their competence in evaluating power systems responses and understanding their significance in terms of network system design and operation. | |
