AIMS AND CONTENT

AIMS AND LEARNING OUTCOMES

At the end of the course the student is expected:

• To understand the theoretical principles of power electronic conversion.
• To understand the theoretical principles of DC-DC converters.
• To understand the theoretical principles of DC-AC converters.
• To solve problems regarding the proposed converters.

TEACHING METHODS

Theoretical lectures in the classroom that will also include the resolution of exercises.

Students with valid certifications for Specific Learning Disorders (SLDs), disabilities or other educational needs are invited to contact the teacher and the School's contact person for disability at the beginning of teaching to agree on possible teaching arrangements that, while respecting the teaching objectives, take into account individual learning patterns. Contacts of the teacher and the School's disability contact person can be found at the following link Comitato di Ateneo per l’inclusione delle studentesse e degli studenti con disabilità o con DSA | UniGe | Università di Genova

SYLLABUS/CONTENT

• Basic components of power electronics (diodes, thyristors and transistors).
• Diode rectifiers (single diode rectifier, single-phase diode rectifier, three-phase diode rectifier).
• DC-DC converters (buck, boost, buck-boost, half H-bridge, H-bridge).
• DC-AC converters (single-phase inverter, three-phase inverter, NPC, series of H-bridges).
