 | A Program for Snubber Design and Macromodel Generation in Java
By J. C. Regidor; V. M. Guzmán; M. I. Giménez | |
|
Abstract: This interactive CAD package, suitable for any computer platform that supports the Java 2 language,
integrates all the calculations needed for thyristor macromodel generation, and for snubber design
applied to the RC standard snubber and to other three energy-recovering configurations, including a
new one for design with power devices encapsulated in dual-device modules. It creates files ready to
run on the SPICE simulator.

| | Computer-Oriented Course Of Power Electronics
By G.S. Zinoviev ; M.A. Gnatenko | |
|
Abstract: This training course is developed for preparing the specialists in the field of power electronics of
different levels (four) [1].It is created on the base of computer programs package by method of ”4³ in
one” . It comprises four levels of educational components: the lecture material itself on the four levels
mathematical modeling of different devices of power electronics (laboratory works), course designing,
control of the acquired knowledge on the four levels too. Given course is used for teaching the
specialists by method of distant education.

| | Creation of Web Learning Materials for an MSc in Power Electonics
By J.P. Glew; A.J. Forsyth; O.J. Westmancott; W.F. Wallace; C.M. Johnson; P. Naylor; J.C. Clare | |
|
Abstract: The Universities of Birmingham, Nottingham and Newcastle are developing on line distance learning
materials, for an MSc in Power Electronics and Drives, to support part time students based in industry.
The Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (ESPRC) funds the project. The paper
details the development of the project from inception to production of first phase materials and
outlines details of how the programme will be run by the three Universities. Results of the preliminary
evaluation of course material are presented.

| | Implementation of DAQ System as an educational tool for teaching electrical machines laboratory exercises
By M.C. Dedes; E.C. Tatakis | |
|
Abstract: This paper discusses our experience with introduction of computer-based teaching techniques in the
Electrical Machines’ laboratory. The problems of laboratory work using traditional methods are
reported. An alternative teaching method that introduces computer and information science as well as
automated control systems to the educational procedure is going to be discussed. Moreover, the
implementation of a Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) System, as an educational
tool for the automation of laboratory exercises performance, is presented.

| | Multimedia CAI Program of Power Electronics for College Students.
By T. Kanmachi; T. Kanno; I. Ando; K. Kaino | |
|
Abstract: In this paper, a CAI (computer assisted instruction) program for technical college students to learn
control theories of inverters and induction motors is described. This program consists of some lectures,
which use multimedia slide shows and some experiments in which students will be interested. Using
this multimedia program they can get good understandings of how to use inverters and induction
motors in practice. The efficiency of this CAI program, which is confirmed by some questionnaire,
will be shown.

| | Teaching Magnetic Design Optimization
By Alexei Matveev; R. Nilssen; T. Undeland; Chr. Hartmann | |
|
Abstract: The paper presents a new interactive computer software that provides teachers with a modern
tool to illustrate optimisation of power electronics converters and electrical machines. As an object of
optimisation a single-phase shell-type transformer is chosen. Furthermore optimal design can be found using
various optimisation techniques. Comparison of these techniques can be done.
