Language of instruction

Czech

Number of ECTS credits

5

Mode of study

Not applicable.

Entry knowledge

Are required:

- Basic knowledge of mathematics, theoretical physics and electrical engineering,

- Basic knowledge of function and design of the main types of electrical machines,

- Basic knowledge of internal combustion engines.

Rules for evaluation and completion of the course


Requirements for successful completion of the course:

- Completion of laboratory exercises and tests - 40 points

- Written and oral exam: 60 points
Laboratory is compulsory, missed hours can be replaced, after consultation with the teacher,
probably in the credit week.

Aims

To acquaint students with a general review of automobile electrical machines and apparatuses and special parts(alternators, starters, batteries and ignition).

Written and oral examination verifies that the student is able to:

First Explain and justify the basic technical requirements for electrical equipment for motor vehicles and ECE regulations.

Second Clarify the role of species and sources of electrical energy in the vehicle.

3rd Explain the importance of the starting system and ignition in connection with environmental requirements for the operation of vehicles.

4th Stress the importance of electronic systems (ABS, ESP) for safety vehicles.

5th Analyze the impact of electrical and electronic equipment on the environment (noise suppression and methods).
