The laboratory equipment is used for theses preparation

3.    RESEARCH

The main research interest is focused on power electronics and drives.

 

LABORATORY EQUIPMENT

The Electrical Machines & Drives laboratory is equipped with a wide variety of electrical machines, power electronic modules, drives, accessories and computerized measurement systems. Most of the pieces of the equipment are modular and connectable with each other, so that a large number of drive arrangements and power electronic topologies can be implemented. The equipment offers the versatility of use for both undergraduate and research-level studies.

 

 

Electric Machines

A large range of machines and machine sets is used in the lab for experimentation. Both industrial and experimental machines are available.
