Design considerations of a high frequency power transformer

Abstract

The approach of high frequency application seems to be very trendy In power transformer design. Especially when it is greatly efficient in reducing size, losses, cost etc. However, there is not much discussion that were made on how to design the high frequency power transformer using a proper approach, cost efficient and reliable to be implemented. So in this paper, some of those important parameters are briefly considered. The discussion is made throughout their geometries, core losses, winding losses and thermal model considerations accordingly.
