Class Energy Electric Systems I

To characterize the electrical power system in terms of its structure, components, requirements and single-line diagram. To know the structure of electrical networks in general, particularly, the Portuguese electrical network; To use the "per unit" system to solve network analysis problems; To establish the model of an electrical network and formulate, from a mathematical point of view, the load flow problem; To apply the linear model to solve load flow problems; To compute the electrical parameters of the different types of lines and establish the respective model in steady-state: the exact model, the equivalent pi model, and the short-line model; To understand the concepts of transport capacity, thermal limit, static stability limit, and voltage stability limit; To numerically characterize load diagrams; To acquire the ability to analyze results and draw technical conclusions.
