STE6217 El Machines and Power Electronics 1 - 5 ECTS
Course content
Magnetic field theory, three phase systems. Hazards of electrical power. General structure of electrical machines: transformers, DC machines, induction machines, synchronous machines, mathematical model, stationary analysis and stationary operating characteristics. System components of electronically controlled motor drives. Physical basis of electromechanical energy conversion. Power Electronics, converters and semiconductor components. Grid commutated converters. DC converters. Inverters. New energy sources such as: batteries, solar panels, fuel cells, analog and digital signal processing in power electronics control circuits. Energy Conversion in electrical machines. The combination of motor and power electronics.Objectives of the course
The course will provide an introduction to circuit design as well as a description of the properties of electrical power converters and electric motor drives. Stationary operating characteristics will be emphasized. Students aquire sufficient skills to select and dimension the electric motor drives that are part of industrial systems. After completing the course, students will be able to explain principles and operating characteristics of the main types of electrical machines, and they will be able to make simple calculations, connections and measurements. Furthermore, they should explain main principles and security measures at the development of low voltage systems.Error rendering component
