Thursday 24.06 Registration Key-Note Papers Dialogue Sessions Oral Sessions Time-Table for Wednesday, June 23. 1999 Key-Note Papers 08:30am - 10:30am Dialogue Sessions 10: 30am - 11:30pm Oral Sessions 01:30pm - 06:00pm KEY-NOTE PAPERS Chairman: Brian Taylor, 8:30 am – 10:30 am International Rectifier, Great Britain K4 POWER ELECTRONIC BUILDING BLOCKS (PEBB), PHYSICS BASED SPECIFICATIONS A BASIS FOR PEBB FIT. FROM THE STATE-OF-THE-ART TO FUTURE TRENDS Terry Ericsen, Office of Naval Research; USA The Office of Naval Research of the United States of America is developing Power Electronics Building Blocks to achieve: increased power density, "plug and play" power modules and multi-functionality. Digital controls, integrated with higher frequency and more robust power circuits, enable modular power systems with lower size, weight, and cost – while increasing performance. The function and form of these blocks were studied under several university grants and industrial contracts. In the program´s last phase, physics based arguments will be used to develop enduring specifications for a set of power electronic blocks which can be used to build electric machines. K5 THE ELECTRIFICATION OF THE AUTOMOBILE – POWER TO MOTION FROM THE STATE-OF-THE-ART TO FUTURE TRENDS Fred Flett, International Rectifier, USA The objective of this paper is to identify vehicle electric systems, that will soon become a standard offering and the future electrification that will dictate even higher power efficiency and a move to higher voltage operation. These trends will be compared with the performance of new power semiconductor technology as it applies to the thermal and inductance properties required for these applications. Applications that appear to be the bell-wheather for changes are, for example, Electronic Power Steering, EPS, where the conventional belt driven pumps are being replaced. Here power is only required upon demand, and energy used on a transient basis. Other electric utilities such as heated front windows and brake by wire will further increase the vehicle power demand on the present vehicle electric system. As the trend in vehicle electrification continues the point will be reached where the economies that are proposed as a result of electrification must be addressed by a fundamental change in power generation, and vehicle power management. In conclusion an economic analysis of fuel consumption that weighs the positive and negative influences deduced from the adoption of new electric utilities in automobiles and compares them with the proposed 42Volt electrical system for vehicles will be described. K6 POWER SEMICONDUCTORS IN TRANSISTORIZED CONVERTERS. FROM THE STATE-OF-THE-ART TO FUTURE TRENDS Manfred Bruckmann, Dr. Eric Baudelot, Siemens, Germany The availability of reliable power devices with controlled switching capability has pushed a lot of progress in power conversion in the past. Integration of converter functions lead to an ease in converter design and size reduction. More than fifthy years after the invention of the transistor it dominates in a large application field. Single chip inverters are now available for low end power applications. High current IGBT modules enable the manufacturing of MW Inverters in transistor technique. Recent introduced High Voltage IGBT Modules can be applied for medium voltage inverters. At least new semiconductor materials are emerging, which promise a reduction in terms of losses and inverter size. The paper comes to the conclusion that in the field of power converters a lot of progress can even be expected in the future. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Session Time Breaks DIALOGUE SESSIONS 10:30 am – Coffee time CONVERTERS AND CIRCUITS 11:30 am included Chairman: Michael Bairanzade, Motorola, France D13 SCALE DRIVER FOR HIGH VOLTAGE IGBTs H.
