| Abstract |
This paper presents a laboratory experiment integrating the fields of electronics design, power electronics and drive control. The aim of this experiment is first to illustrate the need for a deep knowledge and the challenges in power electronics and its applications, in this particular case for drive control. The different tasks in this experiment are executed on a complete setup for a brushless dc motor test bench. The tasks assigned to the students are designed such that, in some tasks the knowledge from a particular field, power electronics, electronic design or drive control is deepened, whereas in other tasks the knowledge from more than one of these fields is needed to solve the given problem. Thus, the experiment trains students in the particular domains but illustrates as well the links between power electronics, electronic design and drive control. |
