A multiport medium voltage (MV) isolated DC-DC converter with integrated energy storage, suited for connection of low voltage (LV) and medium voltage (MV) DC grids is presented. A multi-stage structure, adapted for MV ratings, is composed of multiple ident ...
This work is part of the innovative "Active Generator" (AG) project. AG is a concept that suggests a new arrangement of the turbine-generator line of a high power utility (a few hundred of MW) in order to de-synchronize the rotation speed of the turbine-ge ...
Many applications are limited by the performance of the motors that power them. In the small power range, slotless BLDC motors are commonly used due to their intrinsic high power density and smooth torque characteristic. However, recent work has shown that ...
Energy saving becomes more and more important. Therefore different improvements have been made in motor design, electronic devices and software in order to increase the overall efficiency of electronic motor drives. Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors (PMS ...
A highly interesting application field of the Modular Multilevel Converter is the interconnection of the European three-phase 50 Hz industrial grid with the single-phase 16 2/3 Hz railway supply. Contrary to existing technologies, the utilization of a bulk ...
Multiphase variable-speed drives supplied from two-level voltage source inverters (VSIs) are, at present, contenders for numerous industrial applications. Various pulse width modulation (PWM) methods for multiphase VSIs, aimed at sinusoidal output voltage ...
Optical burst switching (OBS) is able to operate under both asynchronous and synchronous burst departures. Although the asynchronous approach is generally assumed in OBS owing to its simplicity and low technical requirements, it has been shown that perform ...
his paper presents a multiport galvanically isolated LLC resonant DC-DC converter suitable for DC applications. A three-port structure is analyzed, with full bidirectional power flow capabilities, simple control and behavior similar to that expected from a ...
The principle achievement of this contribution is to develop and to describe a rapid DC component elimination strategy for AC currents in the frequency converter, simply by selecting transient period. To avoid DC component on the line current, it’s known t ...
Multiphase variable-speed drives, supplied from two level voltage-source inverters (VSIs), are currently considered for a number of industrial applications. Although various multiphase pulsewidth-modulated (PWM) schemes had been recently developed, very li ...
