Course Purpose and Objectives: The course provides basic and advanced concepts of power system analysis. Development of analytical skills to perform analysis of power systems. Analyze balanced and unbalanced systems using symmetrical components. Study transformers and per unit sequence models, transmission line modeling, power flow solution techniques, bus impedance and admittance matrices, power system stability. Projects and term papers to develop a deep understanding of the operation of power systems so that the students are well prepared to enter the workforce as network engineers or to perform research
in this area.
 
Learning Outcomes:
• Ability to model and understand the operation of basic power system components such as transformers and transmission lines.
• Demonstrate understanding of the technical, economic and environmental implications of the design of power systems.
• Ability to analyze power systems under steady-state conditions and fault conditions.
• Demonstrate thorough understanding of the concept of power flow in a large power system and ability to calculate the power flows through the use of simulation tools.
• Develop skills in researching particular topics related to power system analysis, demonstrate ability to conduct thorough literature review and
demonstrate ability to compose research reports.
