CPES Faculty, Staff, and Scholars present at EPE'17 ECCE Europe
Sep 25, 2017
On Tuesday, Dr. Boroyevich also had the honor of giving a welcome address at the conference opening session, representing the IEEE Power Electronics Society, which is co-sponsoring the conference as a part of its global Energy Conversion Congress and Exposition (ECCE) series. This was followed by two technical paper presentations on Wednesday by CPES visiting scholar Yue Xiaolong and CPES Assistant Technical Director Christina DiMarino, respectively. The first, "Beat Frequency Oscillation Analysis for Parallel DC-DC Converters Based on Crossed Frequency Output Impedance Matrix Model", proposed a new model to describe the terminal characteristics of a dc-dc converter around its switching frequency range, and developed a high frequency equivalent circuit model for the converter to predict the beat frequency oscillation in parallel and cascaded systems. The second, "Design and Development of a High-Density, High-Speed 10 kV SiC MOSFET Module", discussed the fabrication of an optimal package for 10 kV SiC MOSFETs that would have minimal parasitic elements to allow for good transient performance, low thermal impedance to effectively remove the heat from the module, and a small footprint to achieve high power density.
