Computer lessons outcome
Students are able to:
- create project in specialized Matlab/Simulink toolbox “SimpowerSystem”, witch is intended to simulation of the power part of the electrical drivetrains and power electronics.
- create model of the two-pulse and six-pulse rectifier loaded with resistor. Measured results and oscilograms help students to better understanding of the theoretical principles. Students are than able to design semiconductor devices (diodes, thyristors) according to measured results.
- create model of the four quadrant inverter with output RLC circuit(filter). Students are also able to create model of the PWM generator with unipolar and bipolar modulation. Measured results and oscilograms help students to better understanding of the theoretical principles.
- create model of the DC motor with permanent magnets. They use this model for realization of the more complex model of the electric drivetrain (DC motor + four quadrant inerter). The students verify features of the PWM modulation with help of current and armature voltage oscilograms
- calculate current and velocity regulator of the electric drivetrain with DC motor with help o theoretical techniques for cascade control structure based on “Optimal module methods”. Calculated values are able to use in models and verify their features with help of simulation of the whole drivetrain. Measured results and oscilograms help students to better understanding of the theoretical principles.
- design semiconductor devices power parts of the drivetrain according to current and voltage measured values during the simulation.
- create model of brushless DC motor and model of an observer estimation of an actual position according to hall sensor signal. They are able to interpret principle of “Six step commutation ” and create logic functions for generating signals for proper transistor switching.
- create simple electric drivetrain supplied from battery. They are able to simulate energy balance in the battery – drivetrain system for defined operation area of the motor. They ensure that the motor operates in rated conditions and according to predefined drive cycle they are able to simulate energy flows from battery to drivetrain and backwards.
- create model of the AC drivetrain with asynchronous motor supplied from three phase DC/AC inverter. They are able to use predefined library models of asynchronous motor or for deeper understanding of the asynchronous motor principle, they are able to create their own model according to differential equations and their transformations. Students are able to create model of simple scalar controlled drivetrain with asynchronous motor.
