In this competition, the efficiency of electric series-hybrid powertrains （ESHPs） is often depicted as worse than the efficiency of mechanical-hydraulic power-split powertrains （MHPSPs）. On closer inspection of these statements, however, systematic errors, such as unequal balance limits, neglected size effects and nonlinearities, non-observance of recent technical developments and standards, or erroneous application of research results regarding MHPSPs on ESHPs are often evident. For verification （and under avoidance of the systematic errors mentioned above）, the losses of an ESHP of 150 kW power are for example calculated and compared with the losses of a typical MHPSP of the same power. The comparison of the losses shows that the ESHP clearly exceeds the efficiency of the comparative MHPSP in the main working range and that there is still potential for improvement.展开更多

Eddy-current, arised from the operation of an alternating-current excitation, induces secondary currents and fields between magnetic material and magnetic position sensor. In this paper, a magnetic position sensor system is simplified to be an outer-winding coil along the axial direction of a low carbon steel bar. The analytical model is derived from basic field and circuit theory considering a linear approximation for a nonlinear permeability. Thus the skin depths and eddy-current power losses from the model in eddy-current modeling techniques at various frequencies of an excited current source can be calculated. The proposed configuration is capable of predicting the skin depths and eddy-current power losses for a magnetic position sensor and has a consistence with experiments.展开更多

This paper proposes a switching topology for asymmetric multilevel inverter utilizing less number of power electronics components. When the number of the output level increases, it requires more switching states and eventually the number of switching components. The increased number of switches results in higher switching losses which may lead to power loss, and reduction of efficiency of the overall conversion system. The salient feature of this proposed topology is that the module can be used as a sub multiple level structure and can be extended for any number of level with minimal increase in the switching components.展开更多
