Simulating the Fundamental Physics of Power Electronics

Power electronics engineers face a range of challenges that require innovative solutions and continuous optimization, such as: 

• Thermal management, as efficient heat dissipation and cooling systems are necessary to prevent overheating and ensure longevity. 
• Minimizing noise and meeting regulatory standards for electromagnetic compatibility.
• Achieving higher power densities, which demands compact designs without sacrificing performance and dealing with material limitations. 
• Designing systems that can withstand mechanical and electrical stresses over time. 
• Improving efficiency by reducing energy consumption and switching losses.

Considering these challenges while designing power electronics such as transformers, high voltage cables, and printed circuit boards with SMDs requires careful consideration of four key physics phenomena: electromagnetics, heat transfer, structural deformations, and noise. These factors significantly impact the performance, reliability, and efficiency of electronic systems.
