Abstract |
This paper presents a new educational set-up for using in industrial electronics laboratory. The presented system consists of a precision power meter, an autonomous data logging unit as well as application software. It helps students to understand the concepts of electrical appliances, machines and drives by measurement the typical signals with different filtering and synchronisation tools, visualisation of the data as well as an implementation of results in analytical models created with Matlab/Simulink. The education kit can present typical waveforms, phasor diagrams, real, active and reactive power and spectral diagrams, as well as to be used for improved laboratory practice, like investigation of transformers, PWM devices and rotating machines. Additionally there is a possibility to evaluate power quality with statistical and regression analysis. |
