Design of the magnetic components: key aspects, approach, and practice
This tutorial is oriented on designing of high-frequency power inductors and transformers. It is intended for graduate-level students that seeks the know-how and best practices to design high efficiency converters with efficient and reliable magnetic components. The tutorial is divided into three parts:
- Theory part, which includes: magnetic materials applications, winding types applications, and insulation coordination,
- Design part, where three magnetic component designs will be covered, including medium-frequency and high-power inductor, medium-frequency and high-power transformer, and low-frequency medium-voltage transformer,
- Simulation part, where components designed in Part II will be simulated using finite element method utilizing ANSYS Maxwell 3D/2D simulator.
The simulation models, as well as design procedures, will be provided for participants use.
