Subject description The objectives of this subject are to consolidate fundamental knowledge of electric and magnetic fields; electric and magnetic circuits; how electric, magnetic and electromagnetic energy are interchanged; to model an electromechanical automation system using DC and AC motors and simulate its performance in open-loop and closed-loop control. Students also acquire skills in working with machines and equipment at normal mains supply voltage, in power instrumentation and control, PLCs and in experimental design and recording. Technical and theoretical content is 09/02/2021 (Autumn 2021)

expected to be acquired by students to the levels of 'know' (essential), 'familiar' (can solve problems if required) and 'aware' (have read/seen). Laboratory skills, ranging from electrical safety, measurements, design validation and experimental verification are an important focus of this subject.

Subject learning objectives (SLOs) Upon successful completion of this subject students should be able to: 1. Apply fundamentals of electric and magnetic fields to solve electric and magnetic circuit problems and to interpret electromechanical energy conversion. 2. Model electromechanical automation systems using DC and AC motors, and design closed-loop control as well as simulate their performance. 3. Carry out work on electric machines and equipment at normal mains supply voltage, and with programmable logic controllers used in automation systems. 4. Demonstrate laboratory skills, ranging from electrical safety, measurements, design validation and experimental verification.

Course intended learning outcomes (CILOs) This subject also contributes specifically to the development of the following Course Intended Learning Outcomes (CILOs): Socially Responsible: FEIT graduates identify, engage, interpret and analyse stakeholder needs and cultural perspectives, establish priorities and goals, and identify constraints, uncertainties and risks (social, ethical, cultural, legislative, environmental, economics etc.) to define the system requirements. (B.1) Design Oriented: FEIT graduates apply problem solving, design and decision-making methodologies to develop components, systems and processes to meet specified requirements. (C.1) Technically Proficient: FEIT graduates apply abstraction, mathematics and discipline fundamentals, software, tools and techniques to evaluate, implement and operate systems. (D.1) Collaborative and Communicative: FEIT graduates work as an effective member or leader of diverse teams, communicating effectively and operating within cross-disciplinary and cross-cultural contexts in the workplace. (E.1)

Teaching and learning strategies This subject includes two-hour lectures, two-hour tutorial/laboratory sessions each week throughout the session. Lectures are supported by on-line subject material including hand-outs, lab notes, tutorial notes and other references including cyberlearning resources. You will gain most from the lectures if you read each week's material in advance and study the on-line material in-depth.

Content (topics) This subject covers: The fundamentals of electromechanical energy conversion for machines (energy, coenergy, singly-fed and doubly-fed actuators) Modelling and control for automation (time and frequency domain, closed-loop control systems, PID, cascade control, and state feedback) Machines and systems (VR and stepping motors, brushed and brushless DC motors, AC motors, microactuators, and PLCs) The basics of fields, circuits and devices (electrostatics, electromagnetic induction, electric circuits, magnetic circuits, and electronic devices) to be reviewed, where appropriate.
