Implementation of an Advanced Modelica Library for Evaluation of Inverter Loss Modeling (2019)
Conference Proceeding
Lai, S. C., Ian Hill, C., & Suchato, N. (2019). Implementation of an Advanced Modelica Library for Evaluation of Inverter Loss Modeling. In Proceedings of 2019 IEEE Texas Power and Energy Conference (TPEC) (1-6). https://doi.org/10.1109/TPEC.2019.8662144

This paper introduces a newly developed Power Electronic Inverter library in Modelica. The library has different levels of complexity to approximate the power losses in the power inverter. In addition, it provides two different modelling domains (ABC... Read More about Implementation of an Advanced Modelica Library for Evaluation of Inverter Loss Modeling.

Finite state machine control for aircraft electrical distribution system (2019)
Journal Article
Spagnolo, C., Sumsurooah, S., Hill, C. I., & Bozhko, S. (2019). Finite state machine control for aircraft electrical distribution system. Journal of Engineering, 2018(13), 506-511. https://doi.org/10.1049/joe.2018.0039

This study deals with the development of new control logic for more electric aircraft (MEA) electrical power systems (EPSs). A key aspect of the MEA concept is that traditional pneumatic and hydraulic loads are replaced by electrical equivalents. The...
