About SAL

NanoMacs

In the project “NanoMacs”, nanocrys­talline magnetic mate­rial will be utilized instead of tradi­tional (ferrite) mate­rial for different electro-magnetic compo­nents with a goal of increasing perfor­mance of power converters in terms of effi­ciency and power density.

Project goals

  • The project aims to explore the perfor­mance of nano-crys­talline magnetics in power elec­tronic converters.
  • The outcome will be used to estab­lish nano-crys­talline mate­rial as an alter­nate to tradi­tional ferrite core mate­rial in high speed/​high frequency power elec­tronic converters.
  • Basis for future high power AFEs and galvan­i­cally isolated inverter projects.
  • Early access to a wide-spread use of nano-crys­talline magnets with the advan­tage of less power losses and mate­rial (copper).
