  • Abstract
    Owing to their complex geometry, large heatsinks, such as are commonly used in power converters and motor drive systems, may exhibit electromagnetic resonances which enhance RF radiation characteristics within the frequency range covered by current EU EMC regulations. Such effects are investigated using the finite-difference time-domain method and compared with measurements
