Teaching Method

Outline:
This course will be held in a lecture style, and taught by a teacher who was engaged in power system analysis, development of operation and planning support systems, and research and development of power devices for power electronics applications (HVDC and FACTS) at Mitsubishi Electric Corporation's electrical system engineering department, leveraging this experience.
The aim of the course is to gain knowledge about the structure of the electrical energy supply system and its components, which play a major role in the energy supply system. In addition, students will learn various control methods and control theories related to the stable operation of supply systems. Furthermore, classes will help students recognize and understand the recent issues of power liberalization (such as electricity trading), deregulation (such as microgrids) and global environmental issues.
Style:
The classes will mostly consist of lectures with handouts. There will also be exercises and homework to help students understand. In addition, the class will go on a factory tour for weeks 5 and 6 to help deepen their understanding of actual machines. Hosokawa is the liaison.
Notice:
A textbook will be used to aid students' understanding, but is not mandatory to buy.
The factory tour for weeks 5 and 6 will take place at consecutive times by changing the timetable.
Students who miss 1/3 or more of classes will not be eligible for a passing grade.
