  2. 6. Ultrahigh-Voltage Silicon Carbide Device Performance, Requirements, and Limitations in High-Power Applications

    Author : Daniel Johannesson; Hans-Peter Nee; Staffan Norrga; Muhammad Nawaz; Alberto Castellazzi; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; 4H-SiC; Current Filamentation; Device Characterization; Dynamic Avalanche; JTE Structure; Junction Termination Extension Design; SiC BJT; SiC GTO Thyristor; SiC IGBT; SiC MOSFET; SiC PiN Diode; Silicon Carbide; TCAD Simulation; Wide bandgap device; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : The increased awareness of the on-going climate change accelerates the electric energy system transformation from fossil-fueled power sources towards systems with larger portions of renewable energy sources. Moreover, the grid infrastructure requires reinforcements to cope with increasing electrical energy demand. READ MORE

  4. 7. Energy-efficient Generating System for HVDC Off-shore Wind Turbine

    Author : Poopak Roshanfekr; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; surface permanent magnet synchronous generator SPMSG ; IGBT active rectifier; high voltage direct current HVDC ; wind energy; dc-link voltage; synchronous reluctance generator SynRG ; annual energy efficiency; diode passive rectifier; finite element method FEM ; interior permanent magnet synchronous generator IPMSG ;

    Abstract : This thesis investigates the design of energy efficient generating systems for off-shore wind turbines. For the generator part of the electric drive system, a surface mounted permanent magnet synchronous generator (SPMSG), an interior permanent magnet generator (IPMSG) as well as a synchronous reluctance generator (SynRG) have been investigated.

  5. 8. On integrity assessment of IGBT-based power stacks used in magnet power supplies for particle accelerators

    Author : Panagiotis Asimakopoulos; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : This thesis analyses an electrical testing method for assessing the integrity of an IGBT-based power stack assembly during factory acceptance tests and service stops. The method combines vce measurements with high current in the Zero Temperature Coefficient (ZTC) operating region and with low sensing current within a specific current cycle using a proposed sampling and filtering technique.
