10. Course Goals (acquired competencies): This course is an advanced course on small and special electric machines with special emphasis on their experimental analysis. The student will gain wider and deepened knowledge about their specifications, structural realization and working principles, as well as their application. The student will be able to perform an analysis on small and special electric machines, as well as their integration in novel automated industrial processes in industry, homes and other commercial premises. |
11. Course Syllabus: Introduction. Classification of small machines. Single phase induction machines: principle of operation, revolving field, two phase systems. Types of single phase induction machines. Equivalent circuits and power flow diagrams of single phase induction machines (SFIM). Capacitor induction motor. Shaded pole induction motor. Small synchronous motors (SSM): operating principles, classification. SSM with permanent magnets. Variable reluctance SSM. Hysteresis SSM. Single phase universal commutator motors with series excitation. Small and special electrical machines applied in automated systems – Servomotors: operating principles, classification and application. Types of control. DC and induction servomotors. Stepper motors: classification and operating principles. Tacho-generators: classification, operating regimes, errors and application. Selsynes. Linear motors: classification, characteristics, operating regimes. Micro and nano technologies for realisation of electromagnetic and electromechanical systems. |
12. Learning methods: Interactive lectures, laboratory exercises, and study in electronic environment. |

19. Conditions for acquiring teacher’s signature and for taking final exam |
Realized activities from 15.1 and 15.2. |
20. Forms of assessment |
During the semester two partial exams are encountered, with duration of 120 minutes each. Those students who will not get enough points to pass the exam can take the final exam in the in the pre-defined exam sessions, with duration of 120 minutes. The final grade is formed by adding the points from the two partial exams or the final exam and the laboratory exercises. |
