The course consists of three weeks of materials and is focused on modeling and control of grid-tied power electronics. Upon completion of the course, you will be able to understand, analyze, model, ...

Silicon carbide (SiC) power devices have been commercially available for ten years. During that time, there has been a steady increase in voltage ratings to 1,200 V and 1,700 V for SiC-Schottky diodes ...

A single-phase inverter is able to provide backup during power glitches and outages; however, this architecture is not able to provide a peak load surge at initial startup. If a supercapacitor is ...

Who would have thought that the small pump, fan, and blower motors would be a liability in achieving higher efficiencies in our white goods and HVAC equipment? Designs have evolved to the point of ...

Key components of the 1-MW motor. What comprises the 1-MW inverter system? A look at the channel-type heat-exchanger architecture to keep the system cool. Up to a few years ago, “flying cars”—vehicles ...
