Prerequisites
Basics of electrotechnique and electrical machines.
Learning outcomes
The course aims at complementing the basics of electrical machines learned in the previous courses, with a generalized approach at the operation of the electrical machines. This includes a general method to calculate the inductances in mutual rotating electromechanical structures; the elementary machines and their models in different reference frame. The description of construction and operation principles of the synchronous machine, not included in the previous course, will complete the program.
Course contents
Inductances - Inductance calculation methodology for electrical machines with rotating parts.
Magnetic fields in electrical machines - Spatial and temporal distribution of magnetic fields in rotating machines with simplified assumptions.
Electromagnetic torque calculation in rotating electric machines - Electric machine equations.
Equations of rotating machines with one or more concentrated windings. Transformation of the equations in different reference frames. Generalized electrical machine (general equations and torque calculation).
The synchronous machine (steady state operation as a generator and motor)
Complementary notions on the asynchronous machine.
