Continuing
Education Programme, IIT Bombay WINNER Golden Peacock National Training Award
Variable Speed AC Drives
Course Objectives
With
recent advances in power semiconductor and converter topologies, variable speed
drives are witnessing a revolution in applications including fans, pumps,
compressors, paper-mill drives, automation and traction, ship propulsion, and
cement-mill drives. The increased popularity of variable speed drive (VSD)
system may be explained by the many advantages a VSD can offer. Such adavtanges
include operation at speeds significantly different from the synchronous speed,
energy saving, improved proecss performance, improved system efficiency etc.
This
course is aimed at familiarizing engineers and professionals about the recent
developments in the field of variable speed ac drives.
Course Contents
Tutorials and Demonstrations
Apart from lecture classes, Simulations and Laboratory demonstrations
are planned.
Who Should Attend?
This course is intended for engineers involved in the
operation, design and development of electrical drives.
Schedule
