The purpose of the course is to provide good knowledge of the basics of power electronically controlled energy conversion in drive systems for e.g. electric vehicles, wind power generation, solar cell technology and mains connected batteries. The course builds the understanding of the control methods on detailed physical modeling of various energy converters. Generic models form the basis for method development and give the student tools to apply the methods also to energy converters other than those covered in the course. The course applies the methods to a selection of linear and rotating DC and AC machines, switched audio systems, DC / DC converters, active power filters, high voltage DC systems (HVDC), battery charging systems and power supply for electric vehicles (various types of chargers and electric roads).

Lectures and arithmetic exercises
Sources and loads: Physical properties for electrical machines, cables, batteries etc. These properties are modeled from a power electronic control perspective, including parasitic components load currents and earth currents.

Power electronic converters: Summary of the characteristics of power electronic converters such as 1Q, 2Q and 3-phase 2-level converters.

Modulation and control: Carrier wave modulation, overmodulation, current control (sampled and with tolerance band), voltage control, torque control, speed control, optimization of efficiency, minimization of ripple.

Applications: Power and torque control of linear and rotating DC and AC machines including field weakening, optimization of efficiency and minimization of torque ripple. Active power filters and connection of batteries to the power grid as energy and power sources. Uninsulated and insulated DC / DC converters for adjusting voltage levels and galvanic isolation of power systems. Vehicle power systems with many power electronic converters on the same DC link / battery, with respect to conducted electromagnetic compatibility (EMC).

Simulation tasks and laboratory work

Active power filter
DC / DC converter
Electric machine (PMSM) in vehicle drive system.
These labs are prepared through simulation work, which is reported as a homework before the lab. After the laboratory, a report is written where simulations and measurements are compared.
