OVERVIEW

The course is the continuation of the Sistemi Elettrici per l'Energia course of previous year , since the theory of circuits learned from the previous year is used here for modeling the main electric devices.

AIMS AND CONTENT

LEARNING OUTCOMES

The course is designed to provide the theoretical and methodological skills necessary for the understanding of the main devices present in modern electrical power systems, with particular reference to the integration of renewable energy sources (RES).

The course, with strong interactive features, is proposed to support theoretical lectures with a large "experiential" part in which, through the use of dedicated software, the student can apply personally what learnt during the theoretical explanations.

TEACHING METHODS

Lectures and practice exercises with Matlab

SYLLABUS/CONTENT
