abstract: In the development of next generation power modules for electric vehicles, demands for high efficiency, reliability, low cost, high power density and therefore small size are of major importance. A promising approach is the embedding of power semiconductor devices into a printed circuit board (PCB) as investigated by the HI LEVEL project. This paper deals with the research, design and experimental verification of a current sensor based on the principle of a Rogowski coil, which is integrated into a PCB, so that it can measure the device current of the embedded power semiconductor devices. As switched mode currents are to be measured, the dynamics of the current sensor were of major concern. Moreover, as large voltage gradients caused by the semiconductor devices inject parasitic capacitive currents into the coil, a differential measurement approach was selected for cancelling out disturbances caused by capacitive coupling.

abstract: Percentage Differential Protection (PDP) is well known as the main Unit Protection Relay of Power Transformer all over the world. The researchers suggested using a novel Current Transformer (CT) with a new approach for fault detections, to improve the characteristic of this relay. MATLAB Simulink tools software used to model the Rogowski Coil (RC) with the new PDP Relay characteristic. Reducing the min operating level point and expanding the operation region by revoking the second slope in the characteristic of the relay by implementing Extended Park's Vector Approach (EPVA) for faults detection. The paper also sheds light on removing the saturation error curve from the total error in the characteristic of PDP relay using the linear CT characteristics of Rogowski Coil. Consequently, a better sensitivity achieved specially for small differential currents in the secondary system. By this method, good indications of quitting few currents on primary terminal of power transformer were achieved. This performance of algorithm is due to the EPVA's analyzation which depends on spectrum analysis.

abstract: This paper presents a simple method for improving the security and reliability of Harmonic Blocking Algorithms (HBAs) in differential protection of power transformers. In the proposed method, instead of using conventional Current Transformer (CT) Rogowski Coil Sensor (RCS) is utilized for sensing the transformer currents. Based on a theoretic analysis, it is shown that the use of RCS increases the margin between the second harmonic ratio levels of the energization and fault conditions, thereby increasing the HBAs security. Besides, the use of RCS has the additional advantage of eliminating the problem of CT saturation, which might cause malfunction of the differential relay. The validity of the proposed technique is demonstrated by evaluating extensive test cases in different operating conditions, which are recorded by digital simulations in PSCAD/EMTDC software. Overall, the results demonstrate that the proposed approach improves the security of HBAs by about 6.8%

abstract: In this paper, a developed method for measuring power frequency ac current using Rogowski coil is presented. The proposed method uses a differentiator in order to reconstruct the current that is intended to be measured. This method gives accurate results as well as it requires only few samples to successfully reconstruct the power frequency current. These advantages are investigated by experimental testing using two different designs of Rogowski coil. The first Rogowski coil has a higher number of turns as compared with the second one. In addition, a digital signal processor is integrated with the coil to implement the proposed reconstruction method. The obtained results give an evidence for the proposed method validity as well as its efficacy.

abstract: Busbar protection grids are always important, but high speed regimes are now needed more than ever because many power systems operating in microgrid should achieve safe and stabile operation. For this purpose, protection concepts that require time coordination such as overcurrent relays and distance protection are no longer acceptable. Digital differential protection uses innovative algorithms to comply with the protection requirements busbar with fast times switching for all faults. The proposed scheme provides protection for any fault in the Busbar of the microgrid and isolates the smallest part possible, to allow the rest of the system to continue operating. The main difficulty in busbar protection using current transformer (CT) may appear during saturation. Therefore, with the use of the Rogowski coil current sensors (RC) can overcome the saturation in CT; in addition, it has many unique features. The protection system consists of a unique combination using differential protection using RC and an intelligent tool to achieve reliable busbar protection with a minimum of delay for evolving faults. Performance has been verified for a variety of operating conditions. The results have confirmed the superior performance of the protection solution. In general, Rogowski coils have performance characteristics that are favorable compared to conventional CTs.

abstract: The Rogowski coil current sensor consists of a Rogowski coil and an integrator. The coil output voltage is proportional to the derivative of the primary current, and the integrator converts the differential into a normal state. Its advantages of good linearity and light weight are gaining more and more attention in the current sampling of smart grids and new electrical equipment, but Rogowski coils have different requirements in different application scenarios. In order to meet the practical needs of current measurement of parallel superconducting units in high temperature superconducting devices, a Rogowski coil can be designed and fabricated from use for cryogenic environments. The Rogowski coil bobbin is made of Fiber Reinforced Plastic (FRP) which has a small deformation in a cryogenic environment and can ensure the accuracy of current measurement. The experimental results show that the linearity of the Rogowski coil is well, and the linear scale factor of the normal temperature environment and the cryogenic environment is well, which can be used to measure the current of the superconducting parallel unit.

abstract: High frequency power electronic converters having switching frequency higher than 1MHz require wideband, isolated and loss less current measurement for effective controls, diagnostics and prognostics. In this work, we propose a wideband and contactless current sensing method for isolated and loss less current measurement in high frequency power electronic converters. The proposed method combines two different sensing technologies a Magnetoresistor sensor and a differential Rogowski coil sensor, which have complementary characteristics to achieve a wide sensing bandwidth. We demonstrate through hardware prototypes and experiments that the proposed hybrid sensor yields to a very high sensing bandwidth of DC to 10MHz. The performance of the hybrid sensor is also evaluated in a 1MHz buck converter.
