  1. Power and Energy Systems By: Mauro Godinho Jenny Hamway

  2. ELE754: Power Electronics • Summary: • Solid state converters and microprocessor control • Switch mode converters, diode and SCR rectifiers, current/voltage source inverters, and programming techniques • Converter analysis and design

  3. ELE754: Power Electronics • Why choose this course? • Many practical industrial applications such as motor speed control, switch mode power supplies, and UPS • Learn how to use assembly language programming to control power converters • Converter analysis design

  4. ELE754: Power Electronics • How has this course helped in thesis? • Solar Tracker with Bi-directional Converter • Utilizes an inverter learned in this course to take DC output power from the solar panel and convert it to AC for household use

  5. ELE754: Power Electronics • What does this course entail? • Two quizzes, one midterm, final, three labs (as of Fall 2008) • Labs: Microprocessor controlled DC-DC converter, SCR rectifier, and IGBT inverter operation/induction motor control

  6. ELE754: Power Electronics • Was this course worthwhile? • YES!! • If you plan on doing a thesis in the power field, or plan on working in the power industry, this course is essential • All 4th year power thesis require some type of power converter

  7. ELE847: Advanced Electromechanical Systems • Summary: • Modeling and simulation of electromechanical in Simulink • Modeling of DC motors, induction machines, solid state converters, and motor speed control techniques

  8. ELE847: Advanced Electromechanical Systems • Why choose this course? • Modeling of electromechanical systems widely used in industry • Practical course geared towards industrial applications

  9. ELE847: Advanced Electromechanical Systems • How has this course helped in thesis? • Students become very familiar with Simulink and its applications • If you thesis requires use of Simulink or PowerSim, this course gives all the basics • How can this course help in finding a job? • Can help with finding automation or power jobs with electromechanical aspects

  10. ELE847: Advanced Electromechanical Systems • What does this course entail? • Midterm, final, 4 labs, and a lab project • All labs and lab project are done in Simulink • Labs: DC motor dynamic performance/ speed control, induction motor dynamic performance, PWM inverters, and induction motor drives

  11. ELE847: Advanced Electromechanical Systems • Was this course worthwhile? • Yes! • Course is comprehensive and gives a solid understanding of electromechanical systems with a relevant lab component

  12. Conclusion • Essential courses for anyone considering a career in power, or wants to have a background in power applications • Questions?
