Course objectives

The aim of the course Electrical Engineering is to familiarise students with nature and types of electric circuits, basic notions, types of circuit elements regarding DC and AC circuits. Students will learn about the power system, power-supply, and the theoretical background of its applications.

Course content
Lectures

Types, characteristic and connections of circuit elements (generators, resistors, capacitors, coils). DC circuit and the behaviour of elements in a DC circuit. Ohm's law. Ideal and non-ideal generators. DC circuit and the behaviour of elements in a DC circuit. Ohm's law. Ideal and non-ideal generators. Electric power, work. Power fitting. Joule's law. Complex circuits. Kirchhoff's laws. Voltage divider and current divider. Complex voltage divider. Increasing of the measuring limit of instruments. Law of linear superposition, conditions for its applicability. Analysis of complex active circuits by equivalent transformations. Transfer of ideal generators. Thevenin's theorem and Norton's theorem. Determination of the currents of bridge connections by Thevenin's theorem. AC circuits. Properties and connections of capacitors and coils, impedance. Serial and parallel resonances, filters. Kirchhoff's laws in the frequency domain. AC powers in one- and three-phase systems. Mutual inductance, induction. Induction law. Parameters of transformers and their sizing. Materials for electrical industry.

Seminars

Students will be able to perform various calculations of currents, voltages, equivalent resistances, and power related to DC/AC electrical circuits.

Acquired competences
Knowledge

Átfogóan ismeri adott műszaki szakterület tárgykörének alapvető tényeit, irányait és határait. Ismeri a mérnöki szakterület tanulási, ismeretszerzési, adatgyűjtési módszereit, azok etikai korlátait és problémamegoldó technikáit.

Skills

Képes a műszaki szakterület ismeretrendszerét alkotó diszciplinák alapfokú analízisére, az összefüggések szintetikus megfogalmazására és adekvát értékelő tevékenységre. Képes önálló tanulás megtervezésére, megszervezésére és végzésére.

Attitude

Felelősséggel vallja és képviseli a mérnöki szakma értékrendjét, nyitottan fogadja a szakmailag megalapozott kritikai észrevételeket. Törekszik arra, hogy hogy önképzése a mérnöki szakterületen folyamatos és szakmai céljaival megegyező legyen.

Autonomy and responsibilities

Feltárja az alkalmazott technológiák hiányosságait, a folyamatok kockázatait és kezdeményezi az ezeket csökkentő intézkedések megtételét. - Tudatában van munkájának és döntéseinek jogi, gazdasági, biztonsági, társadalmi, egészségvédelmi és környezeti következményeinek.

Additional professional competences

Students will become familiar with the basic facts regarding electricity, and they study interrelationships, the knowledge, and the system of the field of electricity. They able to apply the acquired technical scientific principles in their professional field, ability to understand and process technical documentation. They are opened to general and specific knowledge underpinning the technical discipline.

Requirements, evaluation and grading
Mid-term study requirements

During the semester, one final examination will be written, which can be corrected or made up once. A satisfactory result in the final examination is a prerequisite for obtaining a satisfactory mid-semester grade. The mid-term mark is the final examination mark.

Exam requirements

Generative AI usage

Use of GAI tools is permitted in a limited manner (e.g., for literature search support or specific tools). In this case, the course instructor is responsible for defining where and how GAI tools may be used in assignments. The course description must specify in detail how GAI tools may be used during the course.
