Description: This course provides an introduction to modelling the dynamics of all types of AC generators and the related power converters to graduate engineers. It is intended for graduate engineers and PhD students, with an interest in wind power generation, having an electrical or mechanical engineering background, but who have not studied electrical machine dynamics as a part of their degree programme. In this way it will provide a basis for further, more advanced courses in the dynamics and control of wind generator systems e.g. Power Electronics in Renewable Energy Systems and Electrical Aspects of Wind Turbine Systems.
