   A NOVEL MICROCOMPUTER BASED ANALYSIS AND SIMULATION PROGRAM FOR POWER CONVERTERS
By M. Lavoie; G. Joos [View]
[Download]

Abstract: The spreading use of the personal type computers in all aspects of engineering such as drafting, analysis, simulation and design is offering a solution to the problems of design, analysis and simulation of the ever increasing number of available and potentially realizable power converter configurations. Efforts have recently been made to provide analysis and simulation packages suitable for the study of power converters. The paper describes a new approach to the problem. The main strenghts of the proposed program are user-friendliness, circuit drawing capabilities, extensive graphics, both at the input and output stages, small memory requirements, fast execution times and an extensive library of basic and standard converter configurations both of the phase-commutated and forced-commutated types. Such a package has been succesfully used in research and development work, mainly for PWM inverter analysis and design, and more recently as a training tool in power electronics and converter technology.

   MODERN TEACHING ON VARIABLE SPEED INDUCTION MOTOR DRIVES
By Ph. Lataire; G. Maggetto [View]
[Download]

Abstract: This paper emphasizes the teaching method at the Vrije Universiteit Brussel on variable speed induction motor drives. This method has been developed in the frame of the project concerning the introduction of informatics and automatic control in giving guidance to students and in their follow up during their practical exercices on electrical engineering. Two test set-ups are described which have a power rating of 20 KW. They are designed taking into account the particular requirements for teaching purposes. The first one is a current-source inverter drive and the second one a static Scherbius drive.
