One Day EEUG Course 20016 in Birmingham

Effects of long HV Cables in Transmission Systems and their Analysis with EMTP-ATP

Organized by Network Engineering department of National Grid, UK and European EMTP-ATP Users Grouop Association

Lecturers: Marta Val Escudero, EIRGRID, Professor Mustafa Kizilcay, University of Siegen

Two EEUG Courses in 2015

The EEUG meeting 2015 in Grenoble was followed by a one day course on 16th September, 2015.

• Session 1: Transformer inrush: importance of Point-On-Wave switching and Residual Flux, held by A. Manunza, M²EC
• Session 2: Modelling of generator and automatic controllers for transient and stability analysis , held by Drs. T.-T.-Ha Pham and D.Penkov, Schneider Electric

Additionally there was a two days beginners course

Introduction in EMTP-ATP/ATPDraw for simulation and analysis of Power Systems

Courses Objectives: The objective of this course is to give to beginner participants a good first hands-on experience on EMTP-ATP and an overview of the EMTP-ATP capabilities. The course is based on the usage of EMTP-ATP demonstrating concepts and teaching through practical study cases.

Main topics:

• Introduction of modeling and simulation with EMTP ATP
• Introduction to EMTP-ATP models and applications
  • Sources & Rotating machines (motor, generator)
  • Conductor (underground cable and overhead line)
  • Transformer (HV/MV, MV/LV)
  • Circuit breaker, switch, contactor
  • Load
  • Power electronics
  • Advanced functions with MODELS
• Practical study cases
  • Short-circuit analysis
  • Motor starting analysis
  • Transformer inrush
  • Basic usage of MODELS language
