Learning Outcomes
The student will be familiar with the DC, asynchronous and syncronous machines, their operation and driving properties. The student has skills to calculateate the behavior of motors for various applications using equivalent circuits. The student has skills to choose motors for a constant use. Motor drives are dealt with as a whole, from supply devices and cables to motor. The student learns to use manufacturers' table values when selecting a motor for use.
