Evaluation of isolated DC/DC converter topologies for future HVDC aerospace microgrids (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Tarisciotti, L., Costabeber, A., Linglin, C., Walker, A., & Galea, M. (2017, October). Evaluation of isolated DC/DC converter topologies for future HVDC aerospace microgrids. Presented at 2017 IEEE Energy Conversion Congress and Exposition (ECCE), Cincinnati, OH, USA

High performance power conversion equipment is currently gaining an increasing interest for aircraft applications. In particular, isolated bidirectional DC/DC converters are often proposed for modern HVDC aircraft distribution systems. For such reaso...

Design optimization of a short-term duty electrical machine for extreme environment (2017)
Journal Article
Arumugam, P., Amankwah, E. K., Walker, A., & Gerada, C. (2017). Design optimization of a short-term duty electrical machine for extreme environment. IEEE Transactions on Industrial Electronics, 64(12), 9784-9794. https://doi.org/10.1109/TIE.2017.2711555

This paper presents design optimisation of a short term duty electrical machine for extreme environments of high temperature and high altitudes. For such extreme environmental conditions of above 80⁰C and altitudes of 30km, thermal loading limits are...
