Abstract
A method is presented for the design of inductors that recurrently
store a substantial amount of electric energy; joules with frequencies
in the order of tens of kHz. The objective of this method arose from the
necessity of designing air-core inductors as part of an electronic
conversion circuit for the control and transfer of electric energy in
the submegawatt range. For specific geometrical configurations, design
criteria such as weight and electrical losses (or a compromise between
them) in combination with the thermal behavior are calculated. An
analysis of the design criteria for a normalized inductive storage
element is introduced and applied to a computer-aided design method. The
computer program provides either the design of a new core or the design
of an inductor on an available air-core arrangement, reducing the time
for calculation
