Learning Outcomes
Competences
Students are able to apply basic procedures for the design of electrical machines, drives and actuators. This includes calculating the performance of such systems based on the materials used and the topology selected.
Skills Knowledge
  • Application areas for different electrical machines, drives and actuators and associated selection (k3)
  • Properties of the materials typically used (k3)
  • Analytical and finite element based force and torque calculation for electromagnetic systems (k4/5)
  • Winding design of electrical machines based on the star of slots (k6)
  • Determination of losses in current-carrying and in soft and hard magnetic materials (k4/5)
