Electrical Energy Conversion and Power Electronics

Prof. Dr.-Ing. Marek Galek

The research area Electrical Energy Conversion and Power Electronics focuses on the development of electrical energy converters, as well as with the resulting effects.

The focus here is primarily on the following points:

  • Concept development
  • Circuit design and simulation (both electrical and thermal)
  • Circuit development and layout of power electronic circuits
  • Systematic commissioning of systems
  • Development of device mechanics
  • Rapid prototyping (control and mechanics)

Among other things, new circuit approaches are analysed with regard to their practical properties. In addition, new technologies, such as alternative control methods or new semiconductor technologies, are examined with regard to their properties in existing circuit concepts.

Rooms

The laboratory is located in room B 0150/0151 in the basement of the E-Bau (room finder). Further workplaces are also located in E 102, E 0204/5. Experimental set-ups for the research projects are partly located in the project area B0172.
