The basic idea of the project (run in collaboration with a Swiss company) is to design a flexible winding, which will 'replace' the classical slotless BLDC motor winding. The new winding should be thermally and mechanically improved compared to the classic ...
A major change in the electrical transmission and distribution system is taking place in Europe at the moment. The shift from a centralised energy production to a distributed generation profoundly changes the behaviour of the grid. Environmental or social ...
Combining modern high-power semiconductor devices with constantly improving magnetic materials opens up the possibility to replace bulky low-frequency transformers with a new medium voltage medium frequency conversion structure. While there are still chall ...
The brushless DC motors are normally built with rotor mounted PMs, which create the necessary back EMF voltage to produce a mechanical power. The shape of this back-EMF voltage is very important compared to the phase voltage supply one. Indeed, the electro ...
Power-electronic inverters are becoming popular for various industrial drives applications. In recent years also high-power and medium-voltage drive applications have been installed. However, the existing solutions suffer from some important drawbacks. Hyb ...
This paper deals with the modeling of multi-windings transformers. Based on a real example, a modeling methodology is presented. This methodology is the original part of the paper. Application examples of multi-windings phase shifting transformers (18 and ...
This paper deals with the modeling of multi-winding transformers. Based on the real example of a railway DC - supply, a modeling methodology is presented as the original part of the paper. Afterwards two application examples of multi-winding phase shifting ...
State-of-the-art low voltage (LV) medium and high power variable speed drives are voltage source converters. Frequently, frond-end stage is a diode rectifier. To reduce the amount of input current harmonic,, multi-pulse rectifiers are used. Due to the high ...
In view of the Large Hadrons Collider experiments upgrade, where the inner front-end electronics will require higher supply power, a new power distribution scheme has to be designed. This thesis presents a new and more efficient scheme based on step-down D ...
