INTELEC 2014 was an exciting event that showed that HVDC is delivering everything the technology promises when deployed in real applications.
INTELEC 2014 was the place where many companies showcased advances in HVDC power distribution. We caught up with Maurizio Salato, Vicor’s director, power systems engineering after the show
Thermal calculations required when selecting heat sinking are relatively straightforward, but can be time consuming, particularly if you want to investigate the impact of changes to certain parameters.
An aircraft cockpit requires a complex power system: the large number of complex instruments require a variety of different power rails, whist space and weight must be minimized. The second Whiteboard Power Chain of the Week illustrates one solution developed by a Vicor applications engineer for one of our customers.
The Yeaman topology takes advantage of the isolation in a series of DC-DC converters to put the outputs in a series stack. One converter is typically a high efficiency fixed ratio bus converter
