December 2007 - December 2009

Funding entity COTRADIS

The project objectives are the following:
- Development of a power distribution transformer of low power losses by a new design of its active components. The cost of this new transformer has to be as low as possible depending of the materials used and their processing techniques. The life of this new distribution transformer has to guarantee for at least 30 years.
- Optimization of the power transformer in short circuit conditions.

Research topics:
• *Electrical systems: Electromagnetic fields and coupled problems
• *Modeling, simulation and optimization
