Power Systems Analysis - Part 1 (Video On Demand)
Credit: 3 PDH
Subject Matter Expert: Ricardo Romero, P.E.
In Power Systems Analysis - Part 1, you'll learn ...
- The fundamentals of power system analysis and its importance in power engineering
- Key concepts necessary to understanding complex analyses
- The core of power system analyses, three-phase circuits
Overview
Power system analysis is the core of power engineering and an understanding of it is essential for a career in the field. In this first course of the multi-part course series, you will learn the fundamentals of power system analysis. The course is divided into the following sections:
1. Power in Single-Phase AC Circuits: We will start discussing the analysis of power systems, starting from power analysis in single-phase circuits. We will also be discussing the power triangle, complex power, and power flow, which are all key concepts needed to understand more complex topics in power system analysis.
2. Power in Three-Phase AC Circuits: This section covers the core of a power system analysis, i.e., three-phase circuits. We will discuss the types of arrangements of power system loads (e.g., delta or wye connected loads) and will introduce the concept of per-phase analysis of balanced loads.
In each section, several examples are solved to illustrate how to analyze real-world power systems.
