Modern Diagnostics Techniques for Electrical Machines, Power Electronics, and Drives

Remote Controlled Practical Education for Power Electronics and Electrical Drives

Distance learning has been promoted across the entire education sector due to the increasing number of people that educate themselves after their working hours or as part of their professional development. Furthermore, universities and high schools already use the Internet extensively for communication with their students. This, combined with the recent developments with regards to the Internet...

Conceptual Design of Power Electronics, Control Strategies and Electrical Machines within Variable Speed Drives

The considered converter-fed permanent magnet motor could alternatively be operated in two basically different states − the vector control mode or alternatively the brushless dc, also known as electronically commutated mode. Several quality aspects concerning the system performance have been comparatively investigated in practical as well as theoretical manner. Focus is thereby given to the num...

Teaching Electrical Drives and Power Electronics: eLearning and Beyond

Today the education is influenced by eLearning facilities and the accent lies in skills and (deep) understanding rather than in knowledge. In the paper survey of the present state of development of eLearning in Electrical Drives and Power Electronics (ED&PE) is given. Problem based and project based education are the keywords for modern education. This gives to the student a very good knowledge...

Control of Electrical Machines for Drives

Electric drive systems are one of the most important components of our life; billions of them are used in industry, traffic applications and private environment. In the recent past an accelerated development of controlled drive systems could be experienced. The scientific and technical background of today’s most important drive systems, the converter controlled DC-drives and the vector controll...
