Preparation for the next course "Simulating PWM strategies for power converters using QSPICE" has now begun. This will be a bit of a replica of my earlier course with Python Power Electronics. The course describes how to synthesize the PWM algorithm for any given converter knowing the number of possible states. The course will cover PWM strategies for the simple buck converter, half-bridge converter, full-bridge converter, three-phase converter and a multi-level converter.
Python Power Electronics
Higher Education
Universally accessible education using open source software for power engineering applications
About us
Python Power Electronics is a free and open source circuit simulator for power engineering applications. This software is used for creating online courses and writing books on various topics in power electronics and electrical engineering. The primary objective is to increase the use of open source software in electrical engineering and build an online collaborative community similar to those existing in the software domain. With climate change being one of the biggest threats to our future, the need for well trained power engineers will be paramount in the years to come. From the perspective of education, it is therefore, extremely important to encourage young engineers to choose power engineering as their major. Through online courses that have a strong foundation in programming and emerging technology such as data science, it is essential that power engineering education is presented in a manner very different to the way it currently is. Other than young engineers who might be pursuing their formal education, another target audience is working professionals who are currently in the power sector. The online courses are designed to be useful for working professionals who wish to upgrade their skills to take on more challenging roles in the industry. Detailed information on the project can be found on the website http://pythonpowerelectronics.com. The project has several social media outlets which can also be subscribed to.

The past three months have produced three online courses and a new flavor to this education project with hardware courses and a simulation course using QSPICE. With two more months remaining in 2024, things will quieten down a bit, as I need to accelerate my job search with the hope of starting a new job early in 2025. With the current state of tech, that is a challenge, and so I need to focus most of my energy on this. I hope to convert one more of my previous courses - Switching strategies for power converters - from Python Power Electronics to QSPICE. Hopefully, I can also try to complete the STM32 G series course. Plenty of more courses planned for 2025 and also the years ahead. Of course, the only constraint is my own time and energy. If you have found the courses useful, please share them with your network - at work, at your university, or in any other tech groups that you are a part of. Stay tuned for updates.

With the latest course on simulating dc-dc converters with QSPICE, I have started the journey of moving away from using Python Power Electronics for my courses. I will still maintain my circuit simulator Python Power Electronics and use it for writing books. However, for online courses, I will use simulators that are more widely used in the power industry. Along with QSPICE, I am also examining the use of software that serve as offline simulators and also for HIL testing. I will soon be creating a course using the Typhoon HIL simulator that can later be used for HIL testing control algorithms. As time progresses, I hope this project evolves from one that uses Python and open-source software towards providing education to power engineers. In reality, when I first began creating Python Power Electronics, that was my intention - to create a circuit simulator to teach power electronics. https://lnkd.in/eFrK3unf

Pleased to announce that my next online course "Simulating dc-dc converters with QSPICE" is now live on Udemy. Please use the lowest price discount coupon attached (it is lower price than current sales). The course describes how to use QSPICE to simulate buck, boost, buck-boost, Cuk, SEPIC and ZETA converters. I have included some theory lectures along with the simulation lectures to make it easier to understand how these converters work. Has been a very good experience simulating with QSPICE! Hope to continue. https://lnkd.in/eFrK3unf
