Content and learning outcomes
Course contents
Intended learning outcomes
The aim of the course is to understand how to make a design of an electrical energy conversion application from any given set of specifications. The knowledge is applied by designing a system for an industrial application, working in a team which requires acquiring and practising project management skills.
After the course, the student should be able to :
* explain all the tasks in a design procedure of a system for electrical energy conversion
* apply parts of the procedure to design a system for a specific application
* describe the concepts of different modelling tools and apply adequate tools to predict performance of the designed system
* analyze obtained results using knowledge about the various approximations the simulation models are based on
* report and present orally the results of the project
* do a critical evaluation of the documentation produced by other students
The student should also be able to:
*organise a project for implementation of a complex task
* plan the work of a project group considering the boundaries between the project members' functions and tasks
* schedule activities so that the tasks can be performed within a set time frame and such that a uniform and equitable division of labor between project members can be achieved
