Objective
To introduce students to the theories, concepts and application of power electronics and electrical motor drives.
Synopsis
This course introduces students to the fundamentals of power electronics, which include power semiconductor switches, rectifier (AC-DC), choppers (DC-DC), and inverters (DC-AC). Emphasis will be on the power converter operations and analysis of their steady state performances. The course also exposes students to some basic converters design and the selection of suitable converters for certain application. In addition the course covers the operation and selection of converters for DC and AC drive systems. At the end of the course student should be able to critically design power converters at given specification using application software.
Course outcomes:
At the end of the course the students should be able to:
