Three-Phase Medium-Voltage Medium-Frequency Transformer for SST in Green Hydrogen Production

Green hydrogen production uses renewable energies to energise the electrolysers for hydrogen production. The present paper compares possible solutions and configurations of a medium-frequency transformer (MFT) as part of a solid-state transformer (SST) in green hydrogen production applications. The single-phase and three-phase MFTs are compared...

Comparison of Modular Multilevel Converter Based Solid State Transformer for AC/DC Application

For electrolyzer applications, traditional solutions using line frequency transformers plus rectifiers are bulky, heavy and have low controllability. The Solid State Transformer (SST) could be a promising solution to solve the mentioned issues. This paper compares the semiconductor ratings and capacitance of five different Modular Multilevel...

Machine learning-enabled high-entropy alloy discovery

High-entropy alloys are solid solutions of multiple principal elements that are capable of reaching composition and property regimes inaccessible for dilute materials. Discovering those with valuable properties, however, too often relies on serendipity, because thermodynamic alloy design rules alone often fail in high-dimensional composition...

Stability Region Exploring of Shunt Active Power Filters Based on Output Admittance Modeling

A shunt active power filter (SAPF) is coupled with load admittance in weak grid conditions, which poses a challenge to stability analysis. In this article, the admittance model of the SAPF is developed, which reveals the coupling mechanism between SAPF and load concisely and accurately. On top of that, the stability region of the system is...

Angular momentum transfer torques in spin valves with perpendicular magnetization

Spin valves incorporating perpendicularly magnetized materials are promising structures for memory elements and high-frequency generators. We report the angular dependence of the spin-transfer torque in spin valves with perpendicular equilibrium magnetization computed by first-principles circuit theory and compare results with experiments by...
