Dr. Walid Issa has contacted Dr Mahmoud Masoud from the University of Sheffield as part of an exploitation plan to bring their awareness about the project’s aim and its outcome. Dr Masoud explored more the conducted activities at Sheffield Hallam and the developed gate driver and the educational kit. As a response he has worked with his final year project students on graduation projects that complements what this project brings.
Dr Masoud has been successful to start three student projects and with the guidance of Dr Issa, they were able to produce a working kit for double pulse testing. Their aim was to investigate the Silicon and Silicon Carbide MOSFETs losses under different conditions of voltage, current and temperature.
In addition, Dr. Iain Mosely from Electronic Minds has visited the University of Sheffield to deliver a talk to their students to discuss the importance of this technology for Netzero. He went through some depth on semiconductors, magnetics design, digital control and simulation. He also included a live demo of a 5V/3A mains fed flyback converter using a latest-generation integrated GaN power device. He has compiled a roadmap of skills and knowledge needed for a power electronic engineer. Dr. Issa probed how the project is in line with what Iain delivered and inspired him for the roadmap for the project.
Update 6 June 2022
We have been successful to disseminate the project outcome and its impact on one of the University of Sheffield activities in the IET Magazine issue number 51, Page 12.
