ECET 4560:Electric Drives

3 Class Hours 3 Laboratory Hours 4 Credit Hours
Prerequisite: ECET 3500 and ECET 4610
This course covers basic AC/DC electric-machine drives for speed/position control. It presents an integrated discussion of electric machines, power electronics, and control systems. Computer simulations are used for understanding power-electronics based converters and the design of feedback controllers. Applications of electric drives can be found in electric transportation, robotics, process control, and energy conservation.
