Requirements

The course can be completed by passing the final exam. The course can be also passed with the grade 1-3 by completing five homeworks and earning at least 10 point from them as follows: Grade (1): 10-14 pts; Grade (2); 15-18 pts, and Grade (3) : 19 pts. To earn the highest two grades requires to pass the final exam accordingly.

Learning Outcomes

The course gives the basic knowledge on the dynamic description, and modeling of three-phase grid-connected converters in such a way that the student knows the basic terminology,and the control principles, as well as can perform simple control design based on loop-shaping design principles.

Content

Content Core content Complementary knowledge Specialist knowledge
1. Basic terminology, PWM modualtion methods, different reference frames  Space-vector modulation   
2. Dynamic modeling in dq coordinates under carrier based PWM modulation  Source and load effects on the dynamics of the converter including impedance-based stability assessment   
3. Application of the dynamic models to control design  Frequency response methods for verifying the design   

Instructions for students on how to achieve the learning outcomes
