General course objectives
The purpose with the course is to give students a basic knowledge
of electrical circuits, magnetism, electrical motors and
measurement methods. This includes electrical analogues for
mechanical, hydralic and thermic systems. The student will gain
knowledge og general relationships within electric supplyes and
switch gear for motor operation. The focus of the course will be
the use of electric equipment for mechanical processes
Learning objectives
A student who has met the objectives of the course will be able to:
- Understand the analogy between electrical, hydraulic and
mechanical systems.
- Describe the caracteristic curves for passive components like
resistors, coils and capacitors.
- Be able to use Ohms law and Kirchhoffs Laws in simple electric
Circuits.
- Be able to use the mesh and node method in DC Circuits and
calculate power in DC circuits.
- Understand the torque curves for DC motors
- Be able to use complex functions describing AC current,
voltage, power, apparent power, reactive power and phase
shift.
- Understand the construction and function of the AC and the DC
motors.
- Understand the application of measurement transmitters
- Understand coupling equipment for motors like controlling
current and main current relays, start/stop of controlling relays,
softstarters, frequency transformers, PWM couplings, motor
protection, security and emergency breakers.
- Understand power and torque for motors, gears for coupling of
motors. Knowledge of ON/OFF and analog controlling and regulation
of simple motor set-ups.
- Be able to use simulation software for simulation of smaller
electrical circuits.
Content
Analyze of electrical systems, DC and AC Circuits, DC and AC
motors, coupling equipment for motors, power and torque for motors,
