Fundamentals of Electric Motor Drives with Induction Motor

Electric Drive is not only about the speed control of the motors, but it is about understanding the electric motor at work. Thus, understanding the operation of an electric motor is the first step. However, mastering the electric motor drive requires the ability to select an electric motor for specific applications, understand various speed control possibilities and selecting the best one for the application, improve efficiency and performance, and so on. As a result, the topic of electric motor drive is the most important for electrical engineers.

This is an online course designed to provide learners with a comprehensive understanding of electric motor drives, with a specific focus on induction motors.

This course covers everything from basic principles of electric motor drive to advanced IM drive like VFD. This course also covers many important practical aspects which you may not find anywhere in the regular academic syllabus.

Hello,

I am Dr. Jignesh Makwana, Phd in Electrical engineering from IIT Roorkee with specialization in Electric Drive and Power Electronics. Although this course will be a great resource for the students who are studying the subject Electric Motor Drive as a part of engineering Curriculum, this course will become far more than just academic study. As I am currently associated with the Electric Motor Drive Industry, I know the real Industrial demand of Electric Motor Drive Specialists. As a result, I designed this course to produce skilled electric motor drive engineers with extensive knowledge and skill. This course is not limited to current content, but I will update it on a regular basis to include the most recent on-demand topics whenever possible. On the request of students, topics such as field oriented control, vector control drive, and direct torque control will be added to the same course. This means that any theoretical and practical topic related to AC Motor Drive will be covered in this course and is kept up to date on a regular basis. In addition, the course will cover topics such as how to select motor rating and protection for an application, how to select the speed control method for an application, and what the scope and opportunities are in the field of Electric Motor Drive.

So, if you are an electrical engineer looking for an opportunity in the electric motor industry, simply enrol in the course and expand your knowledge and skills.
