  • 1.00 - 9.00 Credits

    Active participation in research, under the supervision of a faculty adviser, leading to a master's thesis. Grades of IP are assigned until the thesis has been approved by the faculty adviser and accepted by the Office of Graduate Education to be archived in a standard format in the library. Grades will then be listed as S. Credit Hours: 1 to 9
  • 1.00 - 12.00 Credits

    Active participation in research, under the supervision of a faculty adviser, leading to a doctoral dissertation. Grades of IP are assigned until the dissertation has been publicly defended, approved by the doctoral committee, and accepted by the Office of Graduate Education to be archived in a standard format in the library. Grades will then be listed as S. Credit Hours: 1 to 12
  • 4.00 Credits

    Study of the principal components of electric power systems as individual pieces of equipment and as parts of a system. Balanced 3-phase circuits, per unit quantities. Circle diagrams, control of voltage, and power flow. Unbalanced faults. Symmetrical components. The study includes physical modeling and the use of standard software simulation tools. Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisite: ECSE 2010 or permission of instructor. When Offered: Fall term annually. Credit Hours: 4
  • 3.00 Credits

    This course studies electromechanical interactions in lumped-parameter systems. These interactions describe the operation of electric machines, electromechanical actuators and transducers. The fundamental laws of Faraday, Ampere and Gauss are considered to develop physical models of magnetic circuits, including those which use permanent magnets. These models are then expanded to include equations of motion and the thermodynamics of electromechanical coupling. Applications include transformers, induction machines, synchronous machines, DC machines, and reluctance machines. Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisites: ECSE 2010, ENGR 4300 or permission of instructor. When Offered: Spring term annually. Credit Hours: 3
  • 4.00 Credits

    A laboratory based examination of static and rotating energy conversion equipment. Topics include the experimental study of the physical phenomena and characteristics of magnetic circuits, transformers, electric machines, rectifiers, DC/DC converters and inverters. The interaction between static power converters and electric machines is emphasized. Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisite: EPOW 4020 or EPOW 4080 or permission of instructor. When Offered: Spring term annually. Credit Hours: 4
  • 3.00 Credits

    The application of power semiconductor devices to the efficient conversion of electrical energy. Circuit analysis, signal analysis, and energy concepts are integrated to develop steady-state and dynamic models of generic power converters. Specific topics include AC/DC conversion, DC/DC conversion, DC/AC conversion, and AC/AC conversion. These generic converters are applied as controlled rectifiers, switching power supplies, motor drives, HVDC transmission, induction heating, and others. Ancillary circuits needed for the proper operation and control of power semiconductor devices are also discussed. Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisite: ENGR 4300 or ECSE 2050. When Offered: Fall term annually. Cross Listed: Cross-listed as ECSE 4080. Students cannot obtain credit for both this course and ECSE 4080. Credit Hours: 3
  • 3.00 Credits

    Industrial power system design considerations: planning (safety, reliability, simplicity, maintenance, flexibility, cost), voltages (control, selection, effects of variation), protection (devices, limitations, requirements, coordination, testing), fault calculations, grounding (static and lightning protection, earth connections), power factor control and effects, switching and voltage transformation, instruments and meters, cable construction and installation, busways. Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisite: EPOW 4010 or equivalent or permission of instructor. When Offered: Spring term annually. Credit Hours: 3
  • 3.00 Credits

    A capstone design course. Structured and integrated design experience in which a plurality of analytical tools is invoked to meet a design specification for a selected item of hardware. This will involve electrical, thermal, mechanical, environmental, and economic considerations, as appropriate, and may require laboratory and/or computer work in the design or evaluation. Prerequisites/Corequisites: Prerequisites: EPOW 4010 and EPOW 4020 or permission of instructor. Corequisites: ENGR 4010 and senior standing. When Offered: Spring term annually. Credit Hours: 3
