Electrical technology
7.5 ECTS creditsThe course deals with the following components:
Electrical circuits: calculation with Ohm's and Kirchoff's laws of series and parallel circuits, Thevenin's theorem
Single and three-phase alternating currents: definitions of sinusoidal voltage and currents, using phasor diagram and the j-omega method, Y- and D-connected three-phase systems
Power: active, reactive and apparent power, phase compensation
Transformer: windings-, voltage- and current ratio, transformer formula
Non-synchronous machine: design, moment, rotational speed, slip, loss and efficiency, Y and D connected machine, frequency regulation
Synchronous machine, servo-motor, stepping motor: design, function and application areas
Direct current machine: design, separate and series magnetized machine, moment, rotational speed, loss and efficiency.
