Designing Energy-Efficient Electric Drive Systems. Foundations and Planning From a Process Perspective
Introduction
Energy efficient drive technology is rapidly becoming a focus of industrial companies due to savings potential, regulations, and the responsible use of resources. There is significant potential for energy savings with electric drives, in particular. This seminar will demonstrate how energy efficiency can be included in the design and expansion phases of industrial systems in addition to the electronic design.
Target Audience
Employees of electrical drive system companies and departments:
- Designers/planners
- Operating and system engineers
- Energy consulting specialists
- Experts
Main Topics
Day 1:
- Savings potential: regulated electric drive systems
- Overview: current engine technologies
- Principles of frequency convertors
- Power-flow models for energy-efficient processes
Day 2:
- Efficiency-related characteristics of pump, fan, and conveyor systems
- Energy efficiency standards
- Project planning recommendations and selection criteria
- Practical system design exercises
Objectives
Participants will be able to integrate energy efficiency into the electro-mechanical design process and tap into its benefits, such as reduced cooling requirements and smaller sizes. The process guidelines will be explained and then practiced using simulation software.
