IEEE EMC Society Presents: Webinar on Conducted EMI of Electric Power Trains Featuring Dr. Robert Kebel
In the era of electrification in mobility applications, the study of electric power trains has gained significant importance, especially when it comes to Electromagnetic Interference (EMI). Dr. Robert Kebel, a distinguished lecturer, will be leading a webinar titled "Conducted EMI of an Inverter-Driven Electric Power Train." The event is part of the Distinguished Lecturers Live Webinar Series for Fall 2023, organized by IEEE EMC Society and is scheduled for Wednesday, October 4, 2023, from 4:00 PM to 5:30 PM EDT.
The webinar will shed light on the systematic root causes of electromagnetic conducted emissions in power trains. As electric vehicles rely on alternating current (AC) electric engines driven by pulse-width modulating (PWM) inverters, the potential for electromagnetic interference (EMI) becomes a crucial consideration. The talk will explore how PWM technology, power levels, and other electrical parameters affect EMI risk and provide insights into predictive simulation models to make integration decisions.
Power levels in electric aircraft power trains can range from 100 kW for smaller aircraft to several megawatts for large transport aircraft. The fast-switching inverters used for high-power applications introduce challenges related to common-mode interference. Dr. Kebel will also discuss how the choice of inverter and power system configuration impact interference, including crosstalk with adjacent wiring looms. Attendees can expect to gain valuable knowledge on optimizing power trains for EMI mitigation.
Dr. Robert Kebel, an IEEE Senior Member and globally recognized expert in Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) and lightning protection, has extensive experience in integrating electric and electronic systems into aircraft. His research focuses on understanding the root causes and impacts of environmental electromagnetic factors on aircraft electric power systems.
