  2. 2. Highly-Efficient Energy Harvesting Interfaces for Implantable Biosensors

    Author : Janko Katic; Ana Rusu; Saul Rodriguez; Gabriel Rincón-Mora; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energy harvesting interface; thermoelectric generator; glucose biofuel cell; power management; dc-dc converter; boost converter; zero-current switching; zero-voltage switching; implantable biosensor; Energiskördsgränssnitt; termoelektrisk generator; glukosbiobränslecell; energihantering; DC-DC-omvandlare; boost-omvandlare; inplanterbar biosensor; Informations- och kommunikationsteknik; Information and Communication Technology;

    Abstract : Energy harvesting is identified as an alternative solution for powering implantable biosensors. It can potentially enable the development of self-powered implants if the harvested energy is properly handled. This development implies that batteries, which impose many limitations, are replaced by miniature harvesting devices. READ MORE

  3. 3. Energy Evaluation for DC/DC Converters in DC-Based Wind Farms

    Author : Lena Max; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; DC DC converter; loss evaluation; measurements; hard switching converters; wind energy; resonant converters; snubber design;

    Abstract : In this thesis the suitability of three topologies for DC/DC converters in a DC wind farm grid is investigated from an energy efficiency and energy production cost point of view. The three selected topologies are the fullbridge converter, the single active bridge converter and the series parallel resonant converter. READ MORE

  4. 4. Design and Optimization Considerations of Medium-Frequency Power Transformers in High-Power DC-DC Applications

    Author : Amin Bahmani; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Nanocrystalline-Magnetic Core; High-Power Isolated DC-DC Converter; Solid-State Transformers; Leakage Inductance; Isolation Requirements; Medium-Frequency Power Transformer;

    Abstract : Recently, power electronic converters are considered as one of the enabling technologies that can address many technical challenges in future power grids from the generation phase to the transmission and consequently distribution at different voltage levels. In contrast to the medium-power converters (5 to 100 kW) which have beenessentially investigated by the automotive and traction applications, megawatt and medium-voltage range isolated converters with a several kilohertz isolation stage,also called solid-state transformers (SST), are still in an expansive research phase.
