Electrical Engineering and Computer Science 6.

685 Electric Machines, Fall 2005

Highlights of this Course
This course features a full set of lecture notes and problem sets with solutions in the assignments section.

Course Description
6.685 explores concepts in electromechanics, using electric machinery as examples. It teaches an understanding of principles and analysis of electromechanical systems. By the end of the course, students are capable of doing electromechanical design of the major classes of rotating and linear electric machines and have an understanding of the principles of the energy conversion parts of Mechatronics. In addition to design, students learn how to estimate the dynamic parameters of electric machines and understand what the implications of those parameters are on the performance of systems incorporating those machines.
