Switching Mode

In order to improve the stability and reliability of switch mode power supply, the mathematical model of high frequency transformer is established with considering the effects of the leakage inductance of the high frequency transformer on the working state of DC-DC full bridge converter circuit. A finite element analysis method for two dimensional transient field circuit directly coupled of transformer in the case of full bridge inverter is proposed. Transformer inductance parameters are calculated using the method of field energy, which may provides the basis for the design of switching mode power supply transformer.

Abstract The use of finite element analysis (FEA) in high frequency (20–40 kHz), high power ultrasonics to date has been limited. Of paramount importance to the performance of ultrasonic tooling (horns) is the accurate identification of pertinent modeshapes and frequencies. Ideally, the ultrasonic horn will vibrate in a purely axial mode with a uniform amplitude of vibration. However, spurious resonances can couple with this fundamental resonance and alter the axial vibration. This effect becomes more pronounced for ultrasonic tools with larger cross-sections. The current study examines a 4.5″ × 6″ cross-section titanium horn which is designed to resonate axially at 20 kHz. Modeshapes and frequencies from 17–23 kHz are examined experimentally and using finite element analysis. The effect of design variables — slot length, slot width, and number of slots — on modeshapes and frequency spacing is shown. An optimum configuration based on the finite element results is prescribed. The computed results are compared with actual prototype data. Excellent correlation between analytical and experimental data is found.

AbstractNumerous applications of daily life use flat coils, e.g. in the automotive area, in solar technology and in modern kitchens. One common property that all these applications share, is a flat coil made of high-frequency (HF) litz wires. The coil layout and the properties of the HF litz wire influence the winding process and the efficiency of the application. As a result, the HF litz wire must meet the complex technical requirements of the winding process and of the preferred mechanical, electromagnetic and thermal properties of the HF litz wire itself. Therefore, a reasonable configuration and optimization of HF litz wire has been developed with the help of a finite-element-analysis (FEA). In this work, it is first shown that the mechanical behavior of HF litz wire under tensile and bending stress can be simulated. Since the computational effort for modelling an HF litz wire at the single conductor level is hardly manageable, a suitable modelling strategy is developed and applied using geometric analogous models (GAM). By using such a model, HF litz wires can be designed for the specific application and their behavior in a winding process can be predicted.
