An analytical modeling and estimating losses of power semiconductors in a three-phase dual active bridge converter for MVDC grids (2016)
Conference Proceeding
Lee, Y., Vakil, G., Watson, A. J., & Wheeler, P. (2016). An analytical modeling and estimating losses of power semiconductors in a three-phase dual active bridge converter for MVDC grids.

Due to the increasing installation of renewable and decentralized power sources, Medium-voltage dc (MVDC) grids has been considered for an alternative application to medium-voltage ac (MVAC) application. Three-phase dual active bridge DC-DC (3DAB) co... Read More about An analytical modeling and estimating losses of power semiconductors in a three-phase dual active bridge converter for MVDC grids.

Integrated output filter inductor for permanent magnet motor drives
Conference Proceeding
Raza Khowja, M., Gerada, C., Vakil, G., Wheeler, P., & Patel, C. (in press). Integrated output filter inductor for permanent magnet motor drives.

This paper presents a novel approach to integrate the output filter inductor in permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drive system. The integrated output filter inductor is based on utilizing the motor magnetics as a filter inductance instead of...
