Electrical Energy Conversion Lab
Machine-translated · View original
The lab builds electrical energy equipment using superconductivity and electromagnetic field computation.
AboutAbout the lab
Making better use of electricity.
The Electrical Energy Conversion Lab develops and studies equipment for the generation, conversion, and application of electrical energy.
The lab designs, analyzes, and develops equipment that makes use of superconductivity, in which electrical resistance drops to zero, and works on speeding up large-scale numerical electromagnetic field analysis of electrical equipment.
Effective energy equipment is needed not only to solve environmental problems through CO2 reduction, but also in medicine and pharmaceuticals.
Research proceeds through both experiments and simulation, and in recent years the lab has also worked on AI-based equipment design and stable operation.
Key terms
- Superconductivity
- A phenomenon in which the electrical resistance of a metal or other material drops to zero when it is cooled below a certain temperature
- Numerical electromagnetic field analysis
- Determining the behavior of electric and magnetic fields by solving equations on a computer
- Maxwell's equations
- The fundamental equations of electromagnetism that together describe the behavior of electricity and magnetism
