Workshops by Dr. Jens Friebe from the Institute of Drive Systems and Power Electronics, Leibniz Universität Hannover.
The Faculty of Electrical Engineering at K. N. Toosi University of Technology is going to host a series of talks by Dr. Jens Friebe from the Institute of Drive Systems and Power Electronics, Leibniz Universität Hannover, Germany. The talks will be held from 2nd to 5th of November 2019. Dr. Friebe’s research is mainly focused on Passive components in power electronics.
Dr. Friebe has more than 13 years of experience, in the field of PV-inverter topologies, wide band-gap semiconductors, magnetic components and control strategies for high switching frequencies.
The talks offer opportunities for students and faculty members, interested in the research areas of renewable energy systems, WBG-semiconductor-based converters and passive components in power electronics. The details of the event are as follow.
Day 1: Nov. 2, 2019, 10:00 am.- 12:00 am
Place: Main Meeting Room, Faculty of Electrical Engineering
Title: LUH/IAL institute, industry partner
Abstract: This meeting is split up into two parts of approximately one hour for each. The first part covers the Leibniz University Hannover (LUH), student and exchange programs. The second part gives an insight into the Institute for Drive Systems and Power Electronics. Research fields, current projects, student activities and networks with other universities and industry is briefly discussed.
Day 2: Nov. 3, 2019, 09:00 am.- 12:00 am
Place: Main Meeting Room, Faculty of Electrical Engineering
Title: Renewable energy systems
Abstract: The workshop covers mainly photovoltaic- and some actual wind-system aspects. The focus is on power electronics used in these systems. Especially the successful development of photovoltaic is based on the continuous improved of power electronic converters. The evolution of the power electronics topologies and the impact on photovoltaic systems are shown. Some automotive, distribution networks and modular- multilevel- converter (MMC) topics are also briefly outlined.
Day 3: Nov. 2, 2019, 09:00 am.- 12:00 am
Place: Main Meeting Room, Faculty of Electrical Engineering
Title: WBG-semiconductor-based converters
Abstract: Silicon-Carbide and Gallium-Nitride based Semiconductors enable optimization of power electronic converters. However, using the full potential of these switches causes problems, especially in the area of EMI. First, the workshop deals with examples of hardware setups based on GaN- and Sic- switches. Then current ideas for the reduction of negative effects are presented.
Day 4: Nov. 2, 2019, 09:00 am.- 12:00 am
Place: Main Meeting Room, Faculty of Electrical Engineering
Title: Passive components in power electronics
Abstract: After a short introduction into the field of passive components and EMI in power electronics, the workshop will highlight actual research topics at the IAL and within its scientific network. After this, the workshop goes over to the presentation of current research results in the Passive Components Group of the IAL and in particular into the field of filtering design for automotive applications with SiC power semiconductors.
