Entry requirements

Note: Admission requirements for non-programme students usually also include admission requirements for the programme and threshold requirements for progression within the programme, or corresponding.

Prerequisites

Electrical systems

Intended learning outcomes

The overall aim is to provide overall knowledge of the energy system with emphasis on the electrical system. In the end of the course the student should know about how to:

explain and understand how the electrical grid is constructed and controlled
explain and understand critical stability issues and the how safe operation is maintained
perform calculations on three-phase power transfer and draw equivalent per-phase-circuits
perform calculations on phase-compensation of reactive loads
perform calculations on symmetrical and unsymmetrical three phase systems
perform calculations on three phase power transformer
describe the principle function and perform calculations of different electrical machines such as
- Asynchronous machine
- DC-machine
- Synchronous machine
perform calculations in power electronics with thyristors and diodes and regulators
explain and understand the principles of different battery-technologies and what the implications for the end user is.

Course content

The course will give basic knowledge about energy systems and examples of technical applications in various areas. The principles of different kinds of equipment in the power and heating areas will be treated. Here electric power has a central role.

Three phase systems and calculations (phase diagrams, synchronous generator, the jw-method etc.)
Single- and three-phase transformers
DC machine (machine types, electromechanical relationships, speed-control, efficiency and losses)
Asynchonous machine (structure, electromechanical relationsips, efficiency and losses)
Power electronics (rectifiers, diodes, thyristors, inverters)

Using the above as foundation, technical areas that are relevant from an energy perspective will be studied.

Energy conversion
Batteries
Charging
"Smart grid"
Infrastructure

Regulations (apply to LiU in its entirety)

The university is a government agency whose operations are regulated by legislation and ordinances, which include the Higher Education Act and the Higher Education Ordinance. In addition to legislation and ordinances, operations are subject to several policy documents. The Linköping University rule book collects currently valid decisions of a regulatory nature taken by the university board, the vice-chancellor and faculty/department boards.

LiU’s rule book for education at first-cycle and second-cycle levels is available at http://styrdokument.liu.se/Regelsamling/Innehall/Utbildning_pa_grund-_och_avancerad_niva.
