Design and development of multi-kW power electronic transformers
Abstract
A technology for conduction cooled transformers having low internal thermal resistance was developed. To demonstrate this technology a lightweight 25-KVA, 20 kHz, high efficiency, high frequency power transformer was designed and fabricated. The weight of the transformer was 6.95 pounds, the efficiency was 99.2% and the maximum temperature rise in the windings was 43C.
