   On-line Active Filter Experiment Combining Theory, Simulation and Measurement
By Volker STAUDT, Stefan MENZNER, Pavol BAUER, Andreas STEIMEL [View]
[Download]

Abstract: Theory, simulation and experimental verification are key issues for successful research and development. Therefore basic experiments are available at each university to train students. For specialization, however, only few experiments will be available, limiting the choice for the students. Also, life-long learning becomes more and more important for engineers to keep up to date. Modern communication and control technology opens a way to cope with these problems: On-line experiments featuring learning material and control of the experiment by means of usual internet browsers and including simulation. Three main aspects require special attention: The verification of the learning outcome concerning theory and simulation, the â€œreal-lifeâ€-feeling of the experiment itself and a simple-to-use method to integrate results from simulation and experiment into a written report. This paper describes an on-line experiment realized within a project (www.pemcweblab.com) funded by the European Community. It includes automatic verification of the learning outcome concerning theory and simulation, allows simple control of the experimental set-up and returns results as readily formatted bitmap images. Under this guidance and control, students and engineers effectively perform simulation and experiment largely on their own and create a report describing the results obtained.

   Remote laboratory monitoring of rectifiers and harmonic current generation

Abstract: The increasing need to incorporate practical teaching methods in engineers curricula is making necessary to push laboratory tutorial real in applications. This is even more necessary in the first courses, where a lot of student need to make basic but important tutorials of their curricula. Remote laboratories are an interesting alternative to real laboratories because of its availability. The present paper describes a remote laboratory on rectifies and harmonic current generation.

   Systemic design of multidisciplinary electrical energy devices: a pedagogical approach
By Guillaume FONTES, Bruno SARENI, Xavier ROBOAM [View]
[Download]

Abstract: In this paper, we present a complete educative project for illustrating the design and the analysis of hybrid electrical systems. It is based on the study of an ElectroHydrostatic Actuator for flight control application, fed by a power supply associating a PEM fuel cell with a ultracapacitor storage. This system is controlled to achieve a typical energy management strategy of this multi source structure. Step by step, student can faces typical issues relative to the design of heterogenous and multidisciplinary devices by achieving eight pedagogical objectives. These eight targets are focused on methodological approach for multi domain modelling (Bond Graphs), causal analysis, but also on simulation of complex heterogeneous systems. A typical hybrid system feeding an ElectroHydrostatic Actuator (EHA) for flight control application has to be designed which drives students towards other pedagogical objectives: system based device sizing (fuel cell and ultracapacitor), energy management, system analysis.
