Misalignment issues of the PWPT system have been addressed. The intercell power transformer has been introduced in order to improve load sharing of the system during a mismatch of the primary single-phase coil and the secondary multi-phase coils.
This technology can help to increase number of application areas of Wireless Power Transfer systems. It can be applied to consumer electronics, defense industry, automotive industry etc.
System and method for part porosity monitoring of additively manufactured components using machining
In additive manufacturing, choice of process parameters for a given material and geometry can result in porosities in the build volume, which can result in scrap.
We have been working to adapt background oriented schlieren (BOS) imaging to directly visualize building leakage, which is fast and easy.
Distortion generated during additive manufacturing of metallic components affect the build as well as the baseplate geometries. These distortions are significant enough to disqualify components for functional purposes.
For additive manufacturing of large-scale parts, significant distortion can result from residual stresses during deposition and cooling. This can result in part scraps if the final part geometry is not contained in the additively manufactured preform.
Faults in the power grid cause many problems that can result in catastrophic failures. Real-time fault detection in the power grid system is crucial to sustain the power systems' reliability, stability, and quality.
Measurements of grid voltage and current are essential for the optimal operation of the grid protection and control (P&C) systems.
