Course content
The specialization course will be a 7.5 pt course. Topics in the course is based on the field of research of the Power Electronic Systems and Components (PESC) group. Dependent on the topics of the specialization project of the students joining the course, it can be put more focus on some of the topics listed below:
- Solid-state components (pn diode, IGBT, MOSFETs, thyristors and WBG devices) and information on gate drivers, packaging, reliability and snubber circuits.
- Design aspects of converters (magnetics, filters, cooling system, testing procedures, sensors)
- Modulation schemes
- Advanced control topics in PE
- Grid integration of converters
- Laboratory: Building or testing of PE converters or use of the PESC Control Platform for control purposes (can include emulation)
Learning outcome
Knowledge:
When completed this course, the student shall have acquired in depth knowledge about the topic of here/his specialization topic.
Skills:
When completed this course, the student shall be able to solve problems within Power Electronics Systems and Components in a properly both scientifically and technically. This is especially valid for problems related to the topics related to the specialization project and master project for the actual student.
General competence:
After completed course, the student should have increased skills within:
- Effectively communicate with specialists as well as not-specialists by help of written reports and presentations
