Abstract :
In response to concern over electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) aspects of all types of electrical equipment, numerical techniques for field computation are becomingly increasingly important in the struggle to meet the required EMC standards. This paper describes a programme of work undertaken to assess the suitability of electromagnetic finite element analysis for modelling power electronic circuits, using an IGBT commutation cell as an example
