Fundamentals of Electric Machines

Subject

This course introduces various concepts of electric machines and provides a deep understanding of their detailed operating principles. The basics of magnetic circuits and electromechanical energy conversion are the starting point of the course, which are important for the understanding of the operating principles of different electric machine concepts on the one hand and for the dimensioning of the machine on the other hand. It is also shown that electrical, mechanical and thermal boundary conditions must be taken into account when designing an electric machine.

The theoretical concepts presented will be consolidated by means of exercises.
