About the course
Aim
The aim of the course is to give the student knowledge of principles for power electronics such as voltage conversion and power control. After completed course shall the student know how to
- explain and analyze the function of DC-DC, AC-DC and DC-AC converters
- calculate the waveforms in DC-DC, AC-DC. and DC-AC converters
- describe the function of common semiconductors used in power control
- describe and model thermal effects
- describe various pulse width modulation principles
- describe the control of DC-DC, AC-DC and DC-AC converters
- know about drive and protection circuits for power control
define the base requirements for selection of components in converter design
Content
Power electronic applications, diode rectifiers, thyristor rectifiers, switch mode converters (DC-DC, AC-DC and DC-AC), power semiconductors, semiconductor rating and thermal effects, Boost, converter control and protection, switch-mode power supply, variable speed drive, high voltage applications (HVDC, SVC).
