The aim of the course is to clarify problems of mechanical system solution methods, load types, torque types, operational situations analysis, electromechanical transient states, stability, losses, dimensioning and projection of electric drives, electric drives with DC motors, electric drives with induction motors, electric drives with synchronous motors, drives with stepping motors, switch reluctance motors - always with emphasis on principles, mathematical models, speed control, braking, block diagrams of control, principles of induction motor vector and direct torque control, traction applications.
On the course completion the students are able to implement various types of semiconductor converters and electric machines, to perform their projection and dimensioning, to handle various types of electric drives such as electric drives with DC separately excited motors, electric drives with DC serious excited motors, electric drives with induction motors, electric drives with synchronous motors, to apply proper control methods in case of start, speed control, and braking, to take advantage of knowledge of electric drives application in engineering practice.
