Design optimization of integrated rotational inductor for high-speed AC drive applications (2017)
Conference Proceeding
Khowja, M. R., Gerada, C., Vakil, G., Patel, C., & Wheeler, P. (2017). Design optimization of integrated rotational inductor for high-speed AC drive applications.

In order to make an efficient and power dense overall system, a close physical and functional integration of passive components is required instead of having a separate sub¬system for passives. Such power dense system is vital in aerospace and marine... Read More about Design optimization of integrated rotational inductor for high-speed AC drive applications.

A hybrid analytical-numerical approach for the analysis of salient-pole synchronous generators with a symmetrical damper cage (2017)
Conference Proceeding
Nuzzo, S., Bolognesi, P., Galea, M., & Gerada, C. (2017). A hybrid analytical-numerical approach for the analysis of salient-pole synchronous generators with a symmetrical damper cage.

The equivalent circuit approach has been widely exploited for the theoretical analysis of electromagnetic devices. However, in the field of classical wound-field synchronous generators, the presence of the damper cage complicates the analysis of such...
