Power Systems Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A lab that explores electricity from generation to use by evaluating and modeling its components.
AboutAbout the lab
Exploring electricity from generation to use through its components and models.
The Power Systems Lab (Funaki Lab) looks ahead to carbon neutrality by 2050 and covers education and research on electricity from generation to use.
The lab evaluates and designs the components of power systems, such as generators, solar cells, power semiconductor devices, and motors, and builds systems that combine them.
In evaluation and design, the lab also carries out modeling based on theory and experimental values using mathematical analysis methods, as well as parameter identification and optimization.
On the lab's website, it is introduced under the name "Funaki Lab."
Key terms

- One of the components of a power conversion circuit; a semiconductor element used to handle electric power
- Parameter identification
- Determining the values that go into a model based on values obtained from experiments and similar data
- Numerical simulation
- Reproducing a phenomenon numerically on a computer using a model

This lab works on electricity from generation to use, evaluating and designing the components of power systems and building systems that combine them. In evaluation and design, it builds models based on theory and experimental values and works on reproducing phenomena that occur in real power systems through numerical simulation.
*Illustrative imageEvaluation and Design of System Components
The lab evaluates and designs components such as generators, solar cells and energy storage devices, power semiconductor devices and capacitors, motors and lighting, and transmission and distribution lines, and builds systems that combine them. It also studies electromagnetic forming processes, which involve large-current transient phenomena.
Modeling and Simulation
The lab carries out modeling based on theory and experimental values, parameter identification, and optimization. In somewhat complex systems, it becomes difficult to confirm phenomena through experiments, so the lab trains students to run numerical simulations while keeping in mind the assumptions and the valid range of a model.
