EEE 552: POWER SYSTEMS DYNAMICS AND CONTROL
Economic load dispatch: system constraints; selection of generators, voltage, running spare capacity, transformer tap settings and transmission line. Network security and merit order scheduling. Dispatch neglecting losses: optimum dispatch, physical integration of co-ordination equations for transmission networks. Exact transmission loss formula; modified co-ordination equations, automatic load dispatch using digital computer. Voltage control: generator voltage, voltage control by reactive power insertion, controlling through power flow by means of magnitude and phase-changing transformers. Frequency control: tie-line loading frequency characteristics, speed governing system.
EEE 500: ENGINEERING PROJECT II
Each student will be required to undertake a simple practical project involving specification, review, analysis, design, development and research. The student is presented with a real world engineering problem, and the solution to the problem must demonstrate a rigorous scientific approach, i.e. problem definition, analysis, design, construction, measurement, evaluation and communication. Students are expected to work largely on their own initiative. The duration of each project is two semesters in the fourth year of study.
