In the last years, static power converters have become widely used in various applications. They can be found in domestic applications, railways, urban and ship transport, and even in several industrial systems. Some of these applications require a high or ...
The present paper deals with a new approach for the study of the steady - state and transient behaviour of three-phase transformers. This approach based on magnetic equivalent circuit diagrams, takes into account the nonlinear B-H curve as well as zero-seq ...
Simulation results relevant to realistic configurations of medium-voltage (MV) and low-voltage (LV) distribution systems provide useful information to evaluate both the expected level of power quality problems on LV networks due to lightning and the benefi ...
Two short lengths of the full-size NbTi cable-in-conduit (CIC) conductor used to fabricate the ITER poloidal field coil insert were tested in the SULTAN facility. The two investigated conductors, otherwise identical, are distinguished only by the presence ...
A combined analytical and FEM method for prediction of the no-load voltage waveform of laminated salient pole synchronous generators is presented in this article. Very precise prediction of the no-load voltage, including saturation effects as well as the e ...
In this work, a model of a multi-layer high-Tc superconducting (HTS) cable that computes the current distribution across layers as well as the AC loss is presented. Analyzed is the case of a four-layer cable, but the developed method can be applied to a ca ...
A short sample of the NbTi cable-in-conduit conductor (CICC) manufactured for the ITER PF insert coil has been tested in the SULTAN facility at CRPP. The short sample consists of two paired conductor sections, identical except for the sub-cable and outer w ...
Methods have been developed to study the distribution of the transport current among the strand bundles of cable-in-conduit conductors (CICC) by using self-field measurements with Hall probe arrays. The unbalance in the transport current is mainly caused b ...
A new test facility, dedicated to the measurement of contact resistance distribution in full-size conductor termination, has been designed and manufactured at CRPP Fusion Technology in Villigen, Switzerland. The facility will be used to characterize and qu ...
A complete framework dealing with power line communication in medium voltage network is proposed. Based on path loss measurements, a complete characterisation of inductive couplers is performed. After a brief recall of inductive coupling techniques, we add ...
