Optimization of thermal management and power density of small-scale wind turbine applications using SiC-MOSFETs

This paper presents an optimized design of 12kW 2L-FB inverter for small-scale wind turbine, taking into account some specific behavioral features of SiC power MOSFETs. Power converters used in renewable energy conversion have to deal with intermittent and variable power availability from the source...
