Winners of Best Paper & Young Engineer announced at PCIM
The Best Paper and three Young Engineer Award winners were honoured during the opening ceremony of the PCIM Europe Conference 2015. From more than 300 high quality papers, the four contributions of the award winners convinced the conference directors.
The determining criteria were originality, content quality, topicality and daily business practice. The Young Engineer Awards were granted to exceptional contributions from young professionals. The laudation was held by the Scientific Advisory Board Chairman, Prof. Dr. Leo Lorenz of ECPE, Germany.
The papers were presented for the first time at the PCIM Europe 2015 Conference and are published in the proceedings. The three Young Engineer Award winners received a money prize, the Best Paper Award winner received a money prize and an invitation to the PCIM Asia 2016 Conference in Shanghai.
The winner of the Best Paper Award was Dorothea Werber from Infineon Technologies, for a 1000A 6.5 kV power module enabled by reverse-conducting trench-IGBT-technology. The three PCIM Young Engineer Awards were handed over to Marinus Petersen from the Christian-Albrechts-University of Kiel for the design of a highly efficient inductive power transfer system for low voltage applications; Jan Richter from Karlsruhe Institute of Technology for the mitigation of current harmonics in inverter-fed permanent magnet synchronous machines with nonlinear magnetics; and André Schön from University of Bayreuth for the comparison of the most efficient DC/DC converters for power Conversion in HVDC grids.
