ENGG 3510

The aim of this course is to develop an understanding of the electrical and electromechanical principles and their applications as devices used in engineering. The course covers magnetic fields of currents and coils; magnetic materials; magnetic circuits; induced, electric and magnetic fields (EMF), inductance, transformers magnetic forces, permanent magnets and electromagnets. The course examines the principles of variable-reluctance devices, stepper motors, moving-coil devices, direct current (DC) and alternating current (AC) motors. Semiconductors materials and devices, diodes, and transistors; principles of modern electronic devices and their applications in circuits; as well as operational amplifiers and digital logics are also studied. [Restriction(s): Non-BENG students may take a maximum of 4.00 ENGG credits.][Department(s): Department of Mechanical Engineering]
