Static Power Converters
Course title: Static Power Converters
Code: FEIT02Z007
Number of credits (ECTS): 6
Weekly number of classes: 3+1+1+0
Prerequisite for enrollment of the subject: Electrical Engineering 1 and Electrical Engineering 2
Course goals/Competences: The objective of this course is to give to students fundamental knowledge about power converters, and how they work. Students will be also introduced with their application and techniques of computer modelling in order to study their performance and characteristics. With this course students will be competent to determine the characteristics of power converters and and perform full analysis of them, as well as be able to model and simulate their performance.
