University Overview

  • Designing a PMSM tailored for an electric two-wheeler application, leveraging the advanced simulation capabilities of Ansys Maxwell Software. Ansys Maxwell is a leading electromagnetic field simulation software that enables the detailed analysis of motor design parameters, including magnetic flux distribution, cogging torque, back EMF and overall motor performance under various operating conditions.
  • Designing a Dual Active Bridge converter system that operates reliably, efficiently, and within specified voltage and power limits while accommodating variations in input sources and loads. Optimization of component selection, topology design, and control strategies should be pursued to achieve the desired performance targets while considering factors such as efficiency, cost, and reliability.Dual Active Bridge ConverterConstraints: 1.Input Voltage (Vdc): The system must accept a variable input voltage within the range of X volts to Y volts, ensuring compatibilitywith a broad spectrum of input sources.2.Load Voltage (Vdc): The converter should provide a regulated output voltage within the range of A volts to B volts to cater to diverse load requirements efficiently.3.Power Inductance: Determine and integrate an appropriate power inductance value to achieve efficient power transfer and control within the system, considering factors such as ripple current, losses, and magnetic core characteristics.4.Transformer Selection: Select a suitable transformer with specifications aligned with the desired power levels, operating frequency, and isolation requirements of the DAB converter.
