Design of a 4-Phase Intercell Transformer Converter for a Space Charge Measuring System
This paper presents the design of a power electronics converter to produce strong current pulses (about 400A) in the core of a HVDC cable in order to use the thermal step method to evaluate the ageing state of the dielectric component. The described converter uses a magnetic coupler with intercells transformers and is current controlled. Index Terms—magnetic coupler; intercell transformer; high current pulses; thermal step method; dielectrics.
Optimal Supercapacitor Pack Sizing for Modular Multilevel Converter with Integrated Energy Storage System
In the new electrical grids, series/parallel converters architectures can be considered for medium and high voltage power conversion. Dual Active Bridge (DAB) topology is a serious candidate to be implemented within these converters.
Numerical investigations of ReBCO conductors with high limitation electric field for HVDC SFCL
Superconducting fault current limiters (SFCL) are already in operation in alternative current medium voltage applications and their use in HVDC grids is very promising due to their capability of reducing high short-circuit currents.
Comparison between numerical and analytical methods of AC resistance evaluation of medium frequency transformers : validation on a prototype
In the future, medium-frequency transformers (with a frequency range of 5-100 kHz) will be major components in dc-dc converter applications, for both medium-voltage direct current and high-voltage direct current networks.
Analysis of voltage and current unbalance in a multi-converter topology for a DC-based offshore wind farm
High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) is increasingly being used for electric power transmission over long distances.
State of the art of gate-drive power supply for medium and high voltage applications
Gate-drive power supplies in medium voltage and high voltage direct current (MVDC / HVDC) applications require medium to high voltage insulation.

Evolution of the Cathode Spot Distribution in an Axial Magnetic Field Controlled Vacuum Arc at Long Contact Gap
The evolution of the cathode spot distribution is an important aspect of the behavior of vacuum arcs controlled with an axial magnetic field.
Measurement and Analysis of Partial Discharges in HVDC Gas Insulated Substations
The measurement of Partial Discharges (PD) in Gas Insulated Substation (GIS) enables to identify and analyse various types of defects that can result in electrical breakdown.
Effective ionization coefficients and limiting field strength of Fluoronitriles-CO2 mixtures
The density normalized Effective ionization coefficients and critical breakdown electric field of the Heptafluoro-iso-butyronitrile (Fluoronitriles), and Fluoronitriles-CO2 mixture are investigated using the steady state Townsend (SST) experimental setup, over a range of the density normalized critical electric field (E/N) from 200-1066 Td (E is the electric field and N the gas density).
