Program

Theoretical classes (13 weeks *2 hours) • Presentation of the course, its structure, aims, general rules of assessment (1 class) • Presentation of the objectives of the laboratory assignments to be done in theoretical-practical classes and presentation of the themes related to them (1 class) • Sessions given by guests about electrical machines and electromagnetic drivers (4 classes) • Study trips (2 classes) • Presentation and discussion of the laboratory assignments (2 classes) • Tests (2 classes) Theoretical-practical classes (12 weeks *2 hours) • Planning, preparation and performance of group laboratory assignments. Presentation and discussion of the reports (10 classes) Comment: Each group will have to do assignment on one of the following themes: • Three-phase permanent magnet synchronous machine • Modelling and testing of a three-phase salient pole synchronous machine (Potier method) • Three-phase asynchronous generator: isolated and network performance • Three-phase bank of single-phase transformer • Three-phase transformer with three-phase winding • Three-phase induction machine controlled by a frequency controller. • Study visits (2 classes). *Engineering Week (1 class)

Teaching methods and learning activities

Theoretical classes: • Presentation of the aims of the course, laboratory assignments to be done and themes related to them. • Technical sessions given by guests • Study visits Theoretical-practical classes: • Laboratory work • Study visits • Presentation and discussion of the reports Assignments Students have to prepare and plan their group laboratory assignments and they will also have to critically analyse their results and write a report.

Eligibility for exams

Students cannot miss more than 3 theoretical-practical classes and have to do one sudy treep and present the report, to be admitted to exams.

Calculation formula of final grade

FM = 0,4LA + 0,25*T1 + 0,25*T2 + 0,1*AS All components will be assessed from 0 to 20 FM - Final Mark LA- Laboratory assignment (preparation, planning, execution of the laboratory assignments and preparation, presentation and discussion of the reports) T1- Test 1 T2- Test 2 AS- Assiduity Comment 1: Students have to reach a minimum mark of 30% in the laboratory component and an average mark of 30% in Test 1 and 2, to complete the course.

Examinations or Special Assignments

Not applicable

Special assessment (TE, DA, ...)

 Students who have special frequency and statutes that do not fit in the evaluation procedures of regular students may replace the evaluation component corresponding to the assessment tests by an examination. However, should always carry out all stages of group work is assigned to them, during the lessons.

Classification improvement

 Only be capable of improving the evaluation component corresponding to the written assessment tests, which will be conducted by a Final Exam classroom oral or written (before a jury, at least the teacher in charge of uc and another teacher), weighing 50% of the final grade. In this case the final result will be determined by the formula: CF = 0.5 * TL + 0.5 * EF where: CF - Final standings TL - Evaluation component corresponding to laboratory activity (including preparation, planning and execution of laboratory experiments and work , presentation and defense of the Final Report, as defined at the beginning of the course for each working group). EF - Classification of Final Examination written or oral.
