Energy Conversion - 3EUACEE6

Goal(s)

• Transformers:
  This teaching concerns electrical devices such as power transformers. The objective is to understand how the object works, know how to model it and insert it into the resolution of electrotechnical problems.
• Rotating electrical machines:
  This teaching presents the means of converting electrical energy into mechanical energy. The different electromagnetic motor technologies will be presented and modeled (MCC, MS and MAS). The compromises and criteria for choosing / designing the machines will be discussed. Finally, an opening on “unconventional” means of conversion will be provided.
• Electronic power converters:
  Understand the need for power electronics, or static conversion. After describing the components constituting the power electronics systems, the basic architectures will be presented and analyzed. Their choices and sizing will be exposed, as well as their control laws.

Experimental work:
• Synchronous machine as an autonom alaternator
• One-phase transformer - Pre-identification and load testing
• DC machine - Torque against speed characteristic
• Photovoltaic - solar panels and 'boost' choper

Complex numbers, phasors and Fresnel representation, law of nodes and meshs.
Notions of mechanics (torque, speed, force) and electromagnetism (B, H, Flux and laws: Ampere, Coulomb, Lentz theorems ...), vector product.

Test

Regular Session
Continuous Assessment (CA): The CA consists of 4 lab sessions (Transformer Lab, Photovoltaic Generator Lab, DC Machine Lab, and Synchronous Machine Lab).
Final Exam (FE): a 3-hour written exam covering the entire course unit (1 hour on transformers, 1 hour on electrical machines, 1 hour on power electronics)

Make-up Session
The grade obtained replaces the FE grade. The CC cannot be retaken. Students may choose which 3 parts to retake.
