Introduction to Electromagnetic Systems

Teaching Methodologies

Theoretical, tutorial and laboratorial classes.
The theoretical component is evaluated by final exam.
The laboratorial component consists of 4 practical works (2 about part I and 2 about part II).

Learning Results

Part I
Acquiring competences on the understanding of Nature in the domain of Electromagnetism, with emphasis on the technologically more important concepts.

Part II­
Learning the operation of the permanent regime of transformers and the DC operation of rotating machines.­
Describe the parts and the principle of operation of DC transformers and motors? know their application fieldsand make numerical calculus about their permanent regime of operation.
