Modern power distribution systems experience a large-scale integration of Converter-Interfaced Distributed Energy Resources (CIDERs). As acknowledged by recent literature, the interaction of individual CIDER components and different CIDERs through the grid ...
The emergence of wide-band-gap (WBG) power transistors with low conduction losses and high-speed switching speeds has paved the way for more-than-ever efficient power electronics systems and huge energy saving potentials. Likewise, power density- the ratio ...
Driven by the environmental changes, penetration of renewables and the need for more flexible power grid, DC is reemerging as a basis for future power networks. Already established in the area of HVDC for very long distance transmission, more and more atte ...
Existing inverter designs are not well-suited for use with high-speed generators due to the IGBTs used as switching elements, which are not fast enough. SiC FETs offer a lower switching time compared to IGBTs, which is key to working with high-frequency ma ...
Recently, IGCTs have shown a great potential for the soft-switching dc transformer applications based on LLC resonant converter. The zero-voltage switching that is present in this converter topology enables an operation of IGCTs without clamping circuit an ...
In the area of medium voltage DC-DC conversion, LLC Series Resonant Converter (LLC-SRC) presentsitself as an attractive topology for implementation of the DC transformer. Employing Integrated Gate Commutated Thyristor (IGCT) as a switching element one can ...
Consensus protocols for asynchronous networks are usually complex and inefficient, leading practical systems to rely on synchronous protocols. This paper attempts to simplify asynchronous consensus by building atop a novel threshold logical clock abstracti ...
An input-series/output-series converter dedicated to high power applications is presented. The converter is composed of plural MF transformers based on DC-DC sub-converters. The series connection allows reaching input-voltage levels in the range of several ...
This paper presents a multi-port isolated DC-DC converter for DC applications. A three-port structure is presented, characterized with full bidirectional power flow and simple control. Galvanic isolation is achieved by means of a multi-winding medium frequ ...
The bidirectional LLC resonant converter operated at fixed switching frequency is a preferable candidate for a true dc transformer that does not actively control the power flow. This is due to its naturally stiff voltage ratio regardless of the imposed loa ...
