Learning Outcomes
1- Recognize and identify the basic components of power electronics (Diode, Thyristor, MOSFET, IGBT). Know their mode of operation and control to know in which applications use them.
2- Identify the electrical circuits and the basic functions of power converters: Choppers (Buck, Boost, Buck-Boost), Single-phase and three-phase rectifiers and inverters.
Know how to explain the pulse width modulation method (PWM)
3- Explain the implementation of the control of direct current machines (type of network, operating quadrants, regulation loops)
4- Explain the implementation of a scalar control on synchronous andinduction machines via a frequency converter.
5- Evaluer the limits of the scalar control thanks to an openness to the field-oriented control.
6- Design a functional diagram of the various electrical blocks of a complete electrical installation from the grid to the machine, including the control.
Content
Lectures :
-L1 : Presentation of the physical phenomena involved in semiconductors (PN junction and MOS effect). Description of the basic components of power electronics (Diode, Thyristor, MOSFET, IGBT). Study of the basic circuits of power electronics: Choppers (Buck, Boost, Buck-Boost), Single-phase and three-phase rectifiers and inverters. Presentation of the pulse width method via a visual analogy.
-L2 : Reminder of the DC machine models and their characteristics (Torque-current and Speed-voltage). Presentation of power converters according to the type of network (choppers from DC and rectifiers from AC) and the operating quadrant (bidirectional voltage and / or current converter).
- L3 : Reminders on the induction machine. Presentation of the two types of control allowed by a frequency converter (scalar and field oriented). Demonstration of maintaining the performance of the machine at variable speed in both modes with explanations of the limits at high and very low frequencies.

Tutorials :
