AIM

To expose the students to the basic principles of Electro mechanical Energy Conversion in

Electrical Apparatus and the operation of Transformers and DC Machines.

OBJECTIVES

i.          To familiarize the constructional details, the principle of operation, prediction of performance, the methods of testing the transformers and three phase transformer connections.

ii.          To introduce the principles of electromechanical energy conversion  in  singly and  multiply

excited systems.

iii.         To study the working principles of electrical machines using the concepts of electromechanical energy conversion principles and derive expressions for generated voltage and torque developed in all Electrical Machines.

iv.        To study the working principles of DC machines as Generator and Motor, types, determination of their no-load/load characteristics, starting and methods of speed control of motors.

v.         To estimate the various losses taking place in D.C. machines and to study the different testing

methods to arrive at their performance.
