About
I work in the field of high voltage apparatus, electrical machines and power electronics at the Department of Electric Energy at NTNU. I am interested in how a system-oriented perspective and digital tools can help improve the design of electrical systems and components from the generation to the consumption side. I am the study program leader for Electrification and Digitalisation (ELDIG), a member of NTNU Team Wind and the Gemini Centre on Green Aviation.
My research focus:
- Insulation design for HVDC, HVAC and inverter-fed machines
- System-oriented design of electric machines
- Partial discharges
Received two research awards: Nowitech Innovation award (2015) and Grønn fases energipris (2016) for a compact, high voltage generator.
Keywords: High Voltage Apparatus, Electric Ageing Mechanisms, High Voltage Electric Machines, Partial Discharges, HVDC systems, Wind Energy, Electric Aviation, Electrostatic Machines
