The recent trend of an increasing share of renewable energy sources in modern power systems, aswell as the integration of power electronics equipment, is shaping the requirements for stable gridinfrastructure. These requirements mainly come from the stabil ...
The localization of partial discharges (PD) is important to monitor the conditioning of high voltage insulator materials. One of the key components in power grids is the high power transformer. Localization of PDs in these pieces of equipment can increase ...
Circuit breakers (CBs) play an important role in modern society because they make the power transmission and distribution systems reliable and resilient. Therefore, it is important to maintain their reliability and to monitor their operation. A key to ensu ...
This paper presents an IGCT unit that has been tailored for emerging soft-switching high-power applications. Redefining the state-of-the-art design and driving concepts, the size and consumption of the proposed unit can be reduced significantly. The paper ...
Series connected IGCTs find application in hard-switched commercial power converters at the MW power levels. Expanding the application of these devices to medium voltage dc-dc resonant converters is of great interest due to the IGCTs low conduction losses. ...
Dielectric elastomer actuators (DEAs) have extremely advantageous characteristics such as lightness, compactness, flexibility, and large displacements. However, in order to operate, they can require voltages in the order of several thousands of volts. Thus ...
A high voltage power supply system for a tethered drone is presented. The project is a follow-up to a previous semester project and the purpose of this project is to review the implementation, improve the design and solve problems. The system consists of a ...
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 ...
Hybrid modular multilevel converter control and design for pumped hydro storage plants is presented, addressing application-specific shortcoming of conventional back-to-back half-bridge modular multilevel converter: high common-mode-voltage machine stress. ...
The dc transformers based on an LLC converter operated in open loop near resonant frequency have several crucial advantages compared to other topologies. These advantages are the stiff voltage ratio with a natural power flow, the dc grid isolation via medi ...
