Design optimization of integrated rotational inductor for high-speed AC drive applications (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Khowja, M. R., Gerada, C., Vakil, G., Patel, C., & Wheeler, P. Design optimization of integrated rotational inductor for high-speed AC drive applications. Presented at IEEE International Electric Machines and Drives Conference

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.
