International Master : Electrical Machine Metrology and Electromagnetic Phenomena” (MeMaPE)

Description

This option of second year of Master concerns, on the one hand, the measurement techniques of the physical quantities associated with electrical machines, but also on the other hand, the modeling of their complex electromagnetic phenomena.
The aim is to train electrical engineers able to understand electromagnetic phenomena tied to electrical
machines as transformers and rotating machines. After the master they will be able to prepar
a doctoral thesis or to work in industrial environment about electrotechnical and energy
problems. This option, strongly focused on the skills of the reseach lab LSEE, is particularly adapted before a PhD thesis. The courses may be in English to facilitate the insertion of foreign students.

Skills: Dimensioning of magnetic circuits and electrical insulation systems of transformers and rotating machines, measurements of electromagnetic quantities, modeling by finite elements, research.
