| The goal |
To show how to use the knowledge from general heat transfer theory to the design, operation, monitoring and protection of electrical power components. Fundamentals of the electrical heating, i.e. of conversion of electrical energy to heat: resistive, induction, dielectric and electric arc. Fundamentals of electric furnaces, power converters and connection to the grid. |
| The outcome |
To train students to be able to apply basic het transfer theory in practical problems in electric power engineering. Understanding the approach via empirical methods and their limitations. Understanding possibilities opened by using modern software tools, based on detailed modeling of physical heating processes. |
