BEE3205 Power systems analysis, operations and control

This course aims to equip students with the preparatory work necessary for meeting the next day’s operation and the various control actions to be implemented on the system to meet the minute-to-minute variation of system load.

Course objectives 

• To get an overview of system operation and control. 
• To understand & model power-frequency dynamics and to design power-frequency controller. 
• To understand & model reactive power-voltage interaction and different methods of control for maintaining voltage profile against varying system load. 

Course Outcomes
After successful completion of the course,  students should be able to : 

• Understand the techniques to control power flows, frequency and voltage. 
• Learn the Security Analysis, Contingency Analysis.
• Understand the techniques to control reactive power, reactive power voltage coupling concept.
• Explore the significance of power system restructuring.
• Perform system state estimation and explore its importance.
• Learn the power system security and its application as a system operator.
• Carry out load forecasting using available methods.
