The fields of work of the Chair of Electrical Energy Technologyinclude the research areas of electrochemical energy storage and energy management systems, electrical drives and machines and electrochemical energy conversion. We offer research services in these areas and are involved in both publicly and industrially funded projects which are linked closely with the training of future engineers. The Chair of EET is represented in university teaching with core and specialization modules, laboratory courses and advanced seminars for students of electrical engineering, electronics and information technology, mechatronics, energy technology, electromobility and medical engineering. We support students in their first independent research activities as part of their final theses.
Alexander Pfannschmidt took part in the FVA Information Conference in Würzburg and presented the results of the research project ‘Air Gap Forces in Electric Motors’. The event provided a central platform for exchange with experts from industry and research in the field of drive technology.
