1968–69

No longer offered. It’s in Waterloo’s scanned calendars from 1967–68 to 1968–69 (before that, 1963–64 to 1966–67 used the number for Electromechanics I); the 1995–96 to 2023–24 calendars are on ucalendar.

Introduction to energy conversion with special emphasis on electromechanical energy converters, linear and rotary. Physical magnetic and electrostatic circuits: statically and dynamically coupled magnetic circuits. Prerequisites: EE 12, 13 2 lectures 1 hour tutorial 3 hours laboratory alternate weeks, one term.

As printed in the 1967–68 to 1968–69 calendars, read by OCR; the scanned page is the original.

    Magnetic circuits. Study of the commutating machine both in isolation and as a component in a d.c. control system. Terminal characteristics of the three modes of operation—generator, motor, and rotating amplifier; transient and steady-state analysis, Matrix methods are used extensively. 3 lectures, one term..
