Participants will gain extensive hands-on experience by participating in computer-based laboratory exercises in a MATLAB-compatible, open-source scientific analysis tool called Octave. This course focuses on the analysis and design of electric motors, generators, and associated power electronic drive systems, placing special emphasis on the design of machines for electric drives, including traction drives, drive motors for automated manufacturing (robots), material handling and drive motors for automotive, aircraft and marine propulsion systems, and associated power electronic drives. Combinations of motors (electromechanics) and drives (power electronics) can synergistically achieve performance not possible through other means. Computer-based tools for estimating machine parameters and performance can remarkably speed up a designer's understanding of when different control and machine design assumptions are applicable, and how gracefully these assumptions fail as performance limits are approached. Modern product design and industrial fabrication demand an understanding of electric machine characteristics, modern control techniques, and associated interactions with electronic drives. Actively-controlled electric machines are already bringing new profiles for position, speed, and force control, creating consumer products that were previously inconceivable at practical prices.Įlectric actuators are increasingly found in just about everything used for daily life, from automobiles to kitchen appliances to smart devices. Electric motors will replace many other sources of motive power for many industrial purposes. Electrification will reduce the carbon dioxide output of our economy. The melding of advanced embedded control, power electronics, and electric machines has created a new workhorse for industrial and consumer electromechanical energy conversion systems.
