- This paper, published in the top IEEE Power Electronics journal, demonstrates a novel, easily applied in-situ method for measuring core loss in wound filter components. The pulse tests commonly used to characterise power semiconductors are adapted, for the first time, to the accurate estimation of wound component loss, thus unifying test regimes and allowing in circuit measurement. The research was primed through an EPSRC UK Power Electronics Centre grant (Components Integration EP/K034804/1 led by Mellor) and is being applied to lightweight aircraft power converters for Safran Electrical & Power UK through Professor Yuan’s Royal Academy of Engineering Fellowship (2017-22).
