Electrical engineering: Numerous machines and devices use electrical signals - whether for energy supply, energy storage or for measurement and control. This module therefore builds on the knowledge of DC voltages from the module Physik für Maschinenbau and extends these models to AC voltages.

Measurement technology: Measurement systems are necessary components for the safe and efficient operation of many machines and systems, for monitoring production processes and for checking specified product properties. This module therefore teaches basic knowledge of measurement systems, which is required for the selection and operation of measuring devices. In addition, students will learn how to carry out and evaluate measurements.

Electrical engineering:

Basic concepts of alternating voltage theory
Electric field and capacitor
Magnetic field and coil
Alternating current circuits in complex representation.

Measurement technology:

Introduction: Aims of measurement technology
Random and systematic errors, error propagation
Measurement of electrical quantities: current, voltage, resistance, capacitance, inductance; oscilloscope
The computer-aided measuring system: sampling, analog/digital conversion, filtering
Examples of measuring non-electrical variables from the fields of mechanical engineering and automotive engineering: strain gauges; sensors for temperature, acceleration

The total workload for the module is 150 hours (see also "ECTS credit points and grading").

• Written examination

• Field work / Experimental work

Written exam: See current regulations

Die experimental work comprises 3 to 5 experiments.

ET: Students know the basic structures and properties of electrical circuits. They are able to calculate simple passive circuits.

MT: Students have knowledge of the basic structures of measurement systems and their application-specific use.

ET: Students have the knowledge to assess the behaviour of calculated circuits.

MT: Students have the knowledge to determine the properties of measuring devices.

1. Students can select suitable components for measurements. They can operate common measuring devices. They can record and display measured values.
2. Students can evaluate measurement results and present them in a measurement protocol that ensures the reproducibility of the measurement.
3. Students have acquired increased interdisciplinary competence in describing and analyzing technical systems using the example of measurement chains.
