DYNAMICS OF ELECTRICAL MACHINES AND DRIVES

Obiettivi formativi

The subject aims to guide the student in understanding the principles of operation of AC machines at variable speed. The module will provide methods to analyze the behaviour of AC drives both in steady state and during transients. Finally, it will give the student knowledge on how torque is controlled in these machines.

Frequenza
Frequenza non obbligatoria, ma fortemente consigliata
Modalità di esame
La valutazione consiste in un colloquio orale in cui lo studente dovrà dimostrare: - la sua conoscenza degli argomenti trattati, - la sua capacità di articolare il discorso in maniera logica e rigorosa, facendo uso di terminologia appropriata, - di saper giustificare tecnicamente le sue affermazioni.
Modalità di erogazione
Traditional face-to-face, with supporting computer simulations.
