Objectives
  • Teaching the students to systematically analyse and solve problems regarding electrical drive-applications
  • The course focuses on topics which graduates must know to succesfully select, specify and maintain modern electrical drives and their electronic controls
  • A practical approach by hands-on exercises on laboratory-implemented drive-platforms is strongly emphasised


Topics
  1. Study of the IC 1524
    • Study of the IC 1524 as base in the control of DC-choppers
    • Lab-exercises (measurements) on the IC 1524
  2. Study of the IC TCA785
    • Operation of the IC
    • Thet IC as base of an AC-controller and B6-mutator.
    • Lab-exercises (measurements) on these steerings.
  3. Steering in 4 quadrants with 2 B6-mutators
  4. Analysis of a frequency-convertor
    • Analysis of the frequency-convertor of the lab
    • Exercises on programming a frequency-convertor


Prerequisites
Basic knowledge of elektricity, elektronics and mathematics
