Course CodeEEE.P301

Course overview and goals

In this course, students will understand the basic principles of electric–mechanical energy conversion for all widely applied electric machinery and apparatus such as motors and generators.
The study of electric machinery and apparatus has been a significant electrical subject since the days of Edison and Tesla, and is still significant due to its close relationship with subjects of note in recent years such as the global warming issue and hybrid automobiles.

Course CodeEEE.P501

Course overview and goals

At the era of the 21 century, magnetic levitation and suspension have been introduced into some practical applications. There are maglevs such as the JR Yamanashi Maglev, the Linimo train in Nagoya, and the Shanghai Maglev. On the other hand, bearingless motor water pumps for pure water, magnetic bearings for turbo molecular pumps are used in semiconductor processes. In this lecture, we will study about super conductor magnetic levitation, Maglev train systems, magnetic bearings, and bearingless motors.

Course CodeESI.A403

Course overview and goals

There are various types of energy such as heat, chemical, mechanical, electrical and nuclear energy and so on, but we need electrical and mechanical power for our convenient daily life. These power do not exist in environment as a natural resource, we should convert from primary energy resources into these power on demand. Energy conversion devices such as electrical generator, heat engine, heat pump, nuclear power, fuel cell, solar cell, light emitting devices, and battery allow us to supply power on demand as well as to store energy. The conversion efficiency of these devices is governed not only by thermodynamics but also by many technical reasons. Therefore, understandings of the energy conversion devices are of great importance in order to realize a sustainable society from a view point of energy supply. Students in the Energy Course learn the basics of the energy devices including fundamental working mechanism, advantage and disadvantage of technology, and state-of-art- devices through Interdisciplinary Principles of Energy Devices 1 and 2.

This course focuses on energy conversion devices using mechanical motion and heat. Operation principles and features of electrical generator, heat engine, heat pump technology, and nuclear power generation will be explained. Ingenious working mechanisms of these energy conversion devices facilitate students’ understanding on the thermodynamics as well as related technologies.
