The experiments are designed to assess the compliance of the emitted radiation level with the basic restrictions expressed in terms of the dosimetric estimate, i.e. the specific energy absorption rate, physical quantity widely known by its acronym, SAR. A numerical model, based on the implementation of the finite element method was designed in order to replicate, as good as possible, some experimental results. After validation, the numerical model is intended to become a flexible tool, useful for intensive dosimetric analysis, with objectives complementary to the experimental goals and possibilities. The paper introduces the experimental arrangement and the numerical model, both designed accordingly to the current testing standardization in the field. A comprehensive set of results gives data for the comparison between measurements and calculus, with the specific objective of the calibration and validation the numerical model, in conformity with the experimental setup.","PeriodicalId":239366,"journal":{"name":"2010 12th International Conference on Optimization of Electrical and Electronic Equipment","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134211301","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Some design aspects starting from power that must be compensated are taken into consideration. The DC-bus capacitor operation has been simulated using Matlab-Simulink environment and the results are very interesting. It is shown that there is an optimum value of the DC-bus voltage which minimizes the supply current harmonic distortion factor. It corresponds to the equality between apparent powers at the AC and DC-sides of the active power filter. Finally, predicted results are verified by experimental way on a MaxSine active power filter.","PeriodicalId":239366,"journal":{"name":"2010 12th International Conference on Optimization of Electrical and Electronic Equipment","volume":"35 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128825433","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
