| Course contents :
| 1st part : Modelling of components and controls
- dynamics of the synchronous machine: time constants, inductances, state equations, per unit systems, rotor motion
- power system modelling under the quasi-sinuosidal approximation
- induction machine: modelling and behaviour after a disturbance
- turbines and speed governors: thermal power plants, hydro power plants
- excitation systems and automatic voltage controllers
- static var compensators
- series compensation : fixed and variable (FACTS devices).
2nd part. Stability
- stability notions in electric power systems : definitions, links with notions from system theory
- small-signal angle stability : analysis of the one-machine infinite-bus system, then of large systems, modal analysis. Stability improvement : design of controllers aimed at damping oscillations, in particular the power system stabiliser
- transient (angle) stability : analysis (equal area criterion) and improvement
- frequency stability
- voltage stability : analysis of short- and long-term voltage collapse scenarios, stability improvement. Demonstration of the ASTRE software.
