Using software based on finite elements and executing calculations are difficult and time consuming, but normally offers increased precision. Finite elements may be used to better understand some phenomena and help establishing an analytic modeling based on magnetic equivalent scheme. Torque calculation is therefore much faster and permits to easily optimize a given structure. The dynamic modeling permits an estimation of dynamic behavior of the hybrid stepping motor in stationary and transient states.","PeriodicalId":202482,"journal":{"name":"Conference Record of the 2002 IEEE Industry Applications Conference. 37th IAS Annual Meeting (Cat.

In order to further reduce the cost of power electronics systems and improve their reliability it is imperative that techniques for standardized and integrated architectures be adopted, allowing them to be mass-customized for a larger class of applications. One of the key factors that allow broad application of a power switching devices rated at a lower power level across large power levels is ease of parallel operation. This paper is devoted to presenting the results from investigation of parallel operation of IGBT devices.

Series compensation in the form of dynamic voltage restorer (DVR) is used to mitigate these voltage disturbances. The compensation capability of a particular DVR topology depends on its voltage injection ability and maximum energy storage. This paper presents a new DVR circuit topology which has the ability to mitigate long duration voltage sags with comparatively small energy storage capacitors. The proposed DVR is equipped with a line-side current forced reversible rectifier that helps to maintain the DC-link voltage under voltage sag conditions. A closed loop controller that consists of an inner current loop and an outer voltage loop has been incorporated into the DVR inverter to maintain the load voltage at a desired level. Simulation and experimental results are presented to demonstrate the efficacy of proposed DVR multiloop controller for various voltage sags.","PeriodicalId":202482,"journal":{"name":"Conference Record of the 2002 IEEE Industry Applications Conference. 37th IAS Annual Meeting (Cat.

However, most of them are focused on the MHz-range handling very low currents. A recent work has proven the suitability of thick-film technology to produce power inductors, but the design suggested did not provide turn-coupling in the structure. The present paper builds on the results of the above mentioned work indicating new conductor arrangements that allow obtaining turn coupling in thick-film magnetic structures. The benefit of having such a coupling is twofold. On the one hand, it allows integrating inductors in even smaller volumes. On the other hand, it makes it possible to design flat power transformers using this integration technique. A complete design procedure of both, power inductors with turn-coupling and power transformers, is presented in this paper. A full characterization of these thick-film transformers is also given. Some experimental results are included as well so that the reader can validate the modeling proposed.","PeriodicalId":202482,"journal":{"name":"Conference Record of the 2002 IEEE Industry Applications Conference. 37th IAS Annual Meeting (Cat.

In this paper, analysis method for evaluation of bidirectional switch losses of MC is proposed. Variation of collector-emitter voltage and current distribution in bidirectional IGBTs are investigated at various operating conditions for power loss analysis.

It can decrease voltage stress of switch through modulation of switching frequency. The Class-E inverter using the proposed control scheme has the advantages of not only the same output power when it is compared with a hybrid-active clamped Class-E (hybrid-ACCE) inverter but also zero-voltage-switching (ZVS), which are characteristics of conventional Class-E and active clamped Class-E (ACCE) inverter.
