ELEN E9501: Seminar in Electrical Power Networks
Instructor: Javad Lavaei
Time: Wednesday, 10:10am-12:40pm
Location: MUDD 214
Description
One of the grand challenges of this century is the modernization of electrical power networks. This course provides a fundamental understanding of not only the conventional power grid but also the electric grid of the future (known as Smart Grid).
The topics covered in this course include:
Modeling of power systems (transmission lines, transformers, relevant power electronic devices, generators, etc.)
Architecture of power networks
Operation of power systems (study of both steady state and transient behavior)
Control of power networks
Optimization for power networks
Electricity market
Smart Grid
