PSMA/PELS Sponsor Capacitors in Power | |||||||||
"Influences on Capacitors, How Materials and Environmental Effects Influence Capacitor Performance" ust when one workshop ends, we begin planning for the next based on the feedback received from attendees. In June of this year, we offered our 4th annual Capacitor Workshop. Thanks to the second year of COVID-19 we had to once again transition to a virtual platform in 2021. While we formatted the virtual workshop to be as interactive as possible, a face-to-face onsite workshop will always offer additional opportunities for attendees. The PSMA Capacitor Committee is delighted to announce our 5th annual pre-APEC Capacitor Workshop sponsored by PSMA and IEEE PELS. We continue our focus on the latest technologies and applications to educate and inform the industry about recent developments in the Capacitor Industry. Each year we are happy to see a growing interest and receive valuable feedback from our attendees which we use when planning our next events. The first workshop in 2018 introduced the basics and now, in 2022, we will put focus on the inner construction of capacitors, the secrets of their materials and how environmental effects will influence performance. The PSMA Capacitor Workshop Organizing Committee has a clear mission:
In 2022, our aim is to deliver value to everyone, newbies and advanced designers of DC-DC converters, frequency drives, inverters, and other power conversation applications alike. The workshop agenda will include topics from a variety of manufacturers, designers, testing and supporting companies. From the feedback received from attendees, some of the highlights of recent workshops include the joint panel discussion featuring members from the Magnetics and Capacitor Committees as well as the video sequences of real measurements and test setups. Both are scheduled to be included again next year. A live expert roundtable talk is planned along with demonstration stations from magnetics and capacitor specialists demonstrating the behavior of the components in various applications. The preliminary workshop agenda will provide a dive deep into the component structure to show the relation between the material and environmental impact on the capacitor behavior. Topics for the 2022 workshop include:
The organizers aim to provide an optimal balance between practical content delivered by leading capacitor manufacturers and content offered by worldwide renowned universities on future capacitor research & development. The agenda includes keynote presentations from recognized experts and technical presentations on ongoing advances in capacitor research and development. The workshop will also feature panel discussions with the presenters to address questions and expand on the materials they presented. During breakfast, lunch and the end-of-day networking period there will be demonstrations of products, technologies, equipment, and measurements to highlight many of the key concepts discussed during the presentations. The workshop is designed to open new horizons of capacitor technologies, materials and environmental influences to designers and to answer questions engineers have, or will have, when working with different capacitor dielectrics. Please contact Pierre Lohrber (pierre.lohrber@we-online.de) of the organizing committee if you have any specific areas or issues you would like to see addressed at the workshop. The latest information on the agenda as well as registration information for the workshop is available on the PSMA website at: http://www.psma.com/technical-forums/capacitor/workshop Provided by members of the Capacitor Workshop Organizing Committee: |
