EEEN71307 Electrical Energy Systems (EES) 15 Variable teaching patterns Postgraduate Taught Level 7 James Brooks Unit coordinator Department of Electrical & Electronic Engineering 1 FHEQ level (Framework for Higher Education Qualifications) ' Masters/Integrated Masters P4 ' European Credit Transfer & Accumulation System Rating : 7.5 <div> This unit aims to help the student understand the structure of electrical energy systems (both AC and DC) from the perspectives of a national grid, a distribution network, an industrial/commercial facility and a plane, ship or train transportation system. It introduces the components included within an electrical energy system, the models used to represent each component and the basic analytical techniques used to combine these component models into an electrical energy system. Models will include generators, power transformers, lines, cables, induction motors, loads and power electronic devices; and analytical techniques will include per-unit, phasors and power flow.</div>  <div> <div> Structure of Electrical Energy Systems (7 hours)-           Transmission, Distribution and Industrial/Commercial Networks (3 hours)-           Transportation Systems (2 hours)-           Renewables, & Energy Storage (2 hours)Basic analytical skills associated with an Electrical Energy System (10 hours)-           Per-unit (2 hours)-           VA and V Phasors (2 hours)-           Real and Reactive Power (2 hours)-           2-bus power flows (2 hours)-           Power quality and power factor (1 hour)-           Power vs Energy, includes peak, average and reactive power (1 hour)Components associated with an Electrical Energy System (13 hours):-           Power Transformers (2 hours)-           Lines and Cable (2 hours)-           Synchronous Generators (3 hours) -           Induction Machines (Generators & Motors) (2 hours)-           Load modelling (2 hours)-           Power Electronics, AC/DC converters and DC/AC inverters (2 hours)</div></div>  <div> This unit aims to help the student understand the structure of electrical energy systems (both AC and DC) from the perspectives of a national grid, a distribution network, an industrial/commercial facility and a plane, ship or train transportation system.

The unit runs for 10 weeks, with a total of 150h of student work. It is split into 10 sections, while these map neatly onto the 10 weeks, students have flexibility to progress through the unit at a pace that fits with their other priorities. There are some fixed events, such as coursework deadlines, exams, and weekly tutorials but much of the course can be done at a pace that fits the student.Each section consists of:- An overview of the material, presenting the current learning objectives.- Explanatory material (~3h of student activity/section) in the form of video lectures, papers/articles, the course text, and links to further resources.- Exercises (~4h/ section). These are formative, with feedback given in the tutorial.- Discussion (~2h/ section). Students are encouraged to discuss the exercises and material in the forums where tutors will facilitate peer learning, providing feedback/input if necessary.- Formative Questionnaire. This is to gather students’ questions and highlight misconceptions ready for the tutorial.- Tutorial (~1h/week). Student will video conference with their tutor in groups of 6-8 to discuss and give/receive feedback.</div><div> In addition to the planned activities there is also private study (~50h for the unit) consisting of:- Revision- Coursework- Further practice- Independent/further study</div>  0 Other 100% <table border="1" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="640"> <tbody> <tr> <td style="width:291px;"> Assessment task</td> <td style="width:104px;"> Length</td> <td style="width:151px;"> How and when feedback is provided</td> </tr> <tr> <td style="width:291px;"> - Maple TA online exam- Coursework- Forum discussion- Video presentation </td> <td style="width:104px;"> 2hN/AN/A3mins</td> <td style="width:151px;"> Marked transcriptWritten commentsRubric / tutorialsWritten comments</td> </tr> </tbody></table>  N Grainger, John J., and William D.
