Problem based project organised work in groups. The project can be a disciplinary project, a cross disciplinary project or a part of a multi-disciplinary project, where several groups from the department do different parts of a larger project. Finally, the project can also be a part of a so-called MEGA project where several project groups from more departments are participating, each doing their part of the large project to find a total solution.
The project is based on a problem where the dynamics of an electrical energy system or an electrical apparatus has to be analysed. The problem can be in the area of:
where for instance short circuits, starting procedures, control issues etc. demands that the dynamics of the systems have to be taken into account. The system or apparatus is analysed and modelled and has to be simulated in an appropriate simulation tool. Verification of the models and the simulations are done by measurement in the laboratory or from existing data.
The project must be documented in a scientific way by a summary report, a paper and a poster as described in “Additional Information”.
Since it is a 15 ECTS project module, the work load is expected to be 450 hours for the student

Guidance for the Project of 1st Semester MSc in Energy
Engineering
(For students with a Bachelor’s degree from Aalborg University)
(not INTRO)
1. Demands to the project documentation
The project should fulfil the objectives of the 1st semester
project theme and should be documented to an acceptable technical
and scientific level. The documentation shall include a scientific
paper and a poster, which shall fulfil the standard for an
international conference, e.g. the IEEE specifications. Moreover,
the documentation shall include a project summary report - see
below.
2. Project documentation
The following material must be uploaded to the system “Digital
Exam” on the date given for the submission:
3. Conference participation
The paper must be presented, by one or more group members at a
conference arranged within the Department of Energy Technology. The
conference will be run in the same manner as an international
conference. The project poster must also be presented at this
conference. All group members must attend the conference and the
poster session to be allowed to participate in the project
examination.
4. Project summary report
The project summary report should elaborate the project details and
conclusions. The maximum length of the summary report (report
without appendices) is 50 pages. For more information see
semester description in Moodle.
5. Project exam
The project evaluation will take place at a later date than the
conference.
At the project examination the project group shall present its project work in accordance to the Examination Policies and Procedures.
The presentation and assessment of the project is conducted in English.
