Photovoltaics (Unitrain)
With the UniTrain solar trainer the function and operating principle of solar cells are vividly demonstrated and
made understandable.
UniTrain Energy Engineering course uses numerous experiments and animations to provide insight into current
issues affecting electrical power engineering. The various courses cover the generation of electric power from
regenerative energies as well as the processes involved in distribution networks. Typical generation and
distribution processes requiring special treatment are dealt with and explored in experiments using safe extra-low voltages
