    <Content>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Fundamentals of power conversion&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;System Architectures: Review of power conversion system architectures typically used in AC-grid connected, and transport applications. Identification of the function of the different power conversion systems.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Mechanics and Thermal Principles: Linear and angular speeds and accelerations, force, and torque. Heat sources and mechanisms, thermal networks, temperature rise and thermal management.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Electrical Machines: DC machines are analysed. Other motor types are introduced.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Energy: Conservation of energy, power and energy. Different forms of energy. Introduction to the main energy storage technologies for AC-grid connected power storage, and transport.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Fundamentals of power systems&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Demand and Generation: In which the mechanism of generation are covered, and the nature of power demand.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;AC Circuit Analysis: Building directly on the first-year circuit course, Resonance is taught to introduce ideas about energy in circuits. Phasors are reviewed and power factor correction discussed.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Three-Phase systems: Three-phase circuits are covered, including star and delta connections and three-phase sources.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Transmission of Electrical Energy: The requirement of balancing Demand and Generation are discussed. Techniques for calculations of power flows and voltages in networks are introduced along with what limits transmission capacity through a line. Finally the emergence of DC transmission as a technology is reviewed.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;</Content>
