Laboratory Size: 1341 square feet
Average # of students per year: 27
Lab Function:
To support experiments in all aspects of electromechanical energy conversion: DC motor and generator characteristic, Single-phase and three-phase transformers, Single-phase and three-phase induction motor characteristics, Synchronous motor and generator characteristics, Power generation, transmission and distribution, Synchronization of generators, etc.
Lab Status:
Current Problems with the Laboratory:
Equipment Needs:
- Six 5HP DC-DC converters to replace the large Dynamometers
- One 15KW AC generator with synchronizing circuitry.
- Six sets of digital AC and DC Voltmeters for bench mounting
- Four digital Industrial Analyzers.
- A power system simulator.
- For safety reasons and to improve the usability of the existing Motor/Generator sets their panels must be meterized
Remember to (1) put your own text here and change its style from "dontforget" to "invisible", and (2) change the alt text of the preceding image (both this text and the alt text should be the same). In Dreamweaver, this is easiest in Code View. (Don't forget to change the page title as well.)
