Energy Conversion Systems and Components

electromechanical energy conversions. It provides the prerequisites for continuing on to the EEA master’s program.

This course unit will:

• Allows you to define the three-phase sinusoidal operating mode for balanced, unbalanced, and nonlinear loads.
• Define the properties of dielectric components.
• Present the basic laws and methods for studying magnetic components
• Define the principles, models, and experimental tests for characterizing inductors and transformers.
• Design an electromechanical system for the motor.
• Present the topologies of electric actuators and their equivalent models from a circuit-based perspective. It will also cover the main characterization tests used for actuator modeling.

The practical component consists of an initial section of tutorials followed by a practical session on the same topic, which enables students to understand and apply theoretical principles and to implement measurement methods and techniques.

The main objective of this course is to provide the fundamental concepts and calculation methods for studying electrical engineering components using equivalent circuits.

The student must be able to analyze a problem involving sinusoidal sources and arbitrary electrical loads under steady-state operating conditions. The student must be able to characterize a signal using the series Fourier decomposition.

The student must be able to prepare or analyze test data sheets for an iron-core inductor, a single-phase or three-phase transformer, a direct-current machine, or an induction motor.

He will be able to design an electromechanical system.

This course unit can serve as the basis for a junior-year project.

- A solid foundation in basic mathematics and physics.

- Basic concepts of materials and components used in electrical engineering. Methods for analyzing circuits operating under steady-state sinusoidal conditions.

- A student with a two-year degree in electrical engineering or applied physics.
