The course provides 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)
At the end of the course, students will be able to: Describe the operation of the main electrical devices Describe a real object with a circuit model Predict the behavior of the device starting from the circuit model that has been proposed by exploiting the theory of electrical circuits Present an argument by defining its logical flow, starting from the hypotheses to the final results, respecting the criteria of formal correctness Analyze realistic problems or test cases using the theoretical knowledge imparted in class
Lectures and practice exercises with Matlab
Overview on electromagnetic fields.
The main electrical machines: Transformers, induction machines, synchronous machines
Principles of static conversion in electrical energy
Prodcution of energy from photovoltaic plants
Prodcution of energy from wind plants
Smart Grids

The exam will be exclusively oral, after the report of the exercises carried out during the semester.
The assessment of the achievement of the training objectives will be proposed as follows: 1) The ability to present a topic will be assessed through a general question, in which students, in the face of a limited time, will have to choose what to expose and what to skip, in what order to present the concepts and at what level of detail 2) the ability to analyze a real problem and translate it into mathematical models will be tested by proposing a real case study not addressed during the lessons in which the student will have to interact with the examining teacher to arrive at the solution of the problem
Pre-requisites :
There are no formal prerequisites, but a good basic knowledge of electric circuits is strongly recommended.
