Electrical Equipment and Machines: Finite Element Analysis

Course Overview

The course consists of theory and applications of Finite Element Method (FEM). This numerical technique, applied for solving partial differential equations, is popularly used by researchers and practicing engineers for design, development and optimization of electrical equipment and machines. A course of FEM is being included in many universities in India at UG and PG level. This module will be helpful for students and working professionals to understand and apply FEM effectively foranalysis of devices. Freeware based FEM simulations and coding procedures will be a part of this course. Students can develop their own codes for practical two- dimensional problems using freeware software.
There are two existing NPTEL courses on computational electromagnetics covering various numerical techniques especially for high-frequency electromagnetics. This course is exclusively for FE Analysis of low-frequency machines and equipment. Four unique features of this proposed course are:
1. Explanation of EM concepts relevant for low frequency electromagnetic computations
2. Use of field distributions and interactive Java based examples hosted in a virtual lab (https://www.ee.iitb.ac.in/course/~vel/)
3. Application of the Finite Element theory for different low frequency electromagnetic problems related to electrical machines and equipment
4. Solving the developed Finite Element formulations using freeware platforms like Scilab and Gmsh
Prof. S. V. Kulkarni has conductedmany Continuing Education Programs for industry and academia on electromagnetic fields and numerical techniques
