| Abstract |
This paper presents interactive "apparent real
time" simulation applications for the teaching of powers
electronics. We present a study of of the following
converters : buck converter, one, two and four quadrant
chopper, boost converter, single-phase inverter, Flyback
converter, rectifier on capacitive load, ...
The following simulations VI (LabVIEW Virtual
Instrument) could be useful for power electronics converter
sizing. However they are mainly intended for teaching
purposes. The aim of this work is to show on a computer
screen (or a classroom screen with a video projector)
simulation that’s looks like what could be seen on an
oscilloscope screen with a real circuit. Compared to a
traditional circuit simulator, the interest is to be able to
modify any parameter or component value and to visualize
the produced effect immediately? without starting a new
simulation. In a course the professor can show the principle
of the powers electronics converters much easier and more
interesting than with a succession of traditional slides. The
students can then continue the study of these topologies in
the computer room or at home. These applications being put
are left at their disposal on an internet site. |
