Description

                 Hi and welcome everyone to our course “Ultimate Electrical Power System Engineering Masterclass”

In this course, you are going to learn everything about power system analysis starting from the power system basics and fundamentals of single phase and three phase electric systems moving to designing and modelling different power system components such as: generators, transformers, and transmission lines, ending with a complete power system studies such as load flow studies and power system faults analysis.

   Thus, this course will be your complete guide in one of the main areas of power engineering:  ( power system analysis )
   The course is structured as follows:

Firstly, an overview on the power system structure is illustrated through the following topics:

   Generation, transmission, distribution, and consumption of electric power
   How to draw a single line diagram (SLD) of any power system

Then, the next topic will be about a review on basic electrical engineering concepts to be a quick refresh for you. The following topics will be covered:

   Different types of powers in power system
   Complex power, power triangle, and power factor definitions
   power factor correction
   Complex power flow in any power system

Then, a complete study of three phase systems is introduced since 99% of  practical electric networks are actually three phase systems. Thus, three phase circuits are explained in depth through the following topics:

   Why we need three phase systems?
   Three phase supply and load
   Different 3-ph connections (star-star), (star-delta), (delta-star), (delta-delta)
   Difference between (3-wire) and (4-wire) 3-ph systems
   The relations between line and phase currents and voltages
   Power analysis in 3-ph systems
   Power factor improvement in 3-ph circuits

Then, you are going to learn the modelling and characteristics of generators in power systems starting from the operation and construction of alternators moving to measuring the performance indices of synchronous generators. The following topics will be covered:

   Construction and operation of alternators
   Salient pole vs. Cylindrical rotor generators
   Generator model in power systems
   Generator phasor diagram and characteristics
   Generator performance parameters
   Power angle curve of synchronous generators

The next topic is about transformers and their use in power systems. We are going to discuss how the transformers work and their importance in power systems through the following outlines:

   Construction and operation of transformers
   Transformer equivalent circuit
   Tests performed on transformers
   Transformer efficiency and regulation
   Three-phase transformer types and connections
   Per phase model of three phase transformer

After that, we are going to a complete modelling of different types of transmission lines with assessing the transmission line performance in electric networks through the following topics:

   Overhead lines vs. Under ground cables (UGC)
   Transmission line modelling and performance
   Short, medium, and long line models
   Lossless transmission lines
   Surge impedance loading (SIL)

Now, after modelling and analyzing different power system components, lets move to the per unit system and learn the concept and importance of per unit in power system analysis through the following outlines:

   Concept of per unit
   Per unit calculations
   How to draw per unit reactance diagram
   Change of base
   Numerical examples on practical power systems

Then, we are going to a complete power flow analysis where we are going to know the electrical parameters for any power system under any operating conditions. The following topics are discussed

   Concept and importance of power flow study
   Definitions in power flow analysis
   Types of power system buses
   Formation of Ybus
   Approximate method
   Iterative methods for load flow analysis
   Gauss-Seidal method
   Power flows and losses analysis
   DC power flow method
   Numerical examples on practical power systems

Then, a complete fault analysis is performed on power systems to find the fault current, bus voltages and line current during the fault. All these outlines are discussed

   Definition, causes, types, and consequences of electric faults
   Complete symmetrical fault analysis using thevenin and Zbus
   Symmetrical components and sequence networks
   Complete unsymmetrical fault analysis using thevenin and Zbus

Finally, after the complete analysis of power system, practical projects are performed on MATLAB related to power systems  as follows :

   Project 1 – Stand alone synchronous Generator
   Project 2 – Synchronous Generator connected to the grid
   Project 3 – Simulation of 3-ph transformers
   Project 4 – Transmission line design
   Project 5 – Power flow study in MATLAB
   Project 6 – Fault analysis in MATLAB
