Mission and objectives

Energy efficiency is nowadays an increasingly important criterion in the design
of industrial electrical energy conversion chains. Large gap semiconductors (SiC
and GaN) present a very interesting solution for improving the efficiency and
power density of static converters.
In this context, we offer a four to six month internship on the design of a 6kVA
three-phase inverter based on discrete SiC components, integrated in an
asynchronous machine. The student trainee will be integrated into a
multidisciplinary R&D team and will participate in the theoretical study as well as
the experimental validation of the results

- Establish the state of the art of WBG semiconductors
- Sizing of the inverter board taking into account the constraints related to the
switching mesh (overvoltages, Miller effect, etc.)
- Consideration of thermal stress in the design of the converter- Design
validation with simulations and experimental tests
