| Abstract |
The paper describes the design methodology of a novel Triple Active Bridge cell used as the buildingblock for modular DC-DC converters. The intended application is for Medium Voltage Direct Currentgrids, such as the DC collector for offshore wind farms. The latest generation of SiC MOSFETsemiconductors is utilized to operate in the medium frequency range while optimizing the efficiency.The dimensioning of the main cell components, including semiconductors, transformer and DCcapacitors is presented. The cell mechanical integration and cooling are also addressed. |
