The only constant is change—power systems
worldwide are going through a paradigm
change from centralized generation to distributed
generation; transportation systems are
being electrified; and billions of lives in thirdworld
countries are awaiting low-cost sustainable electricity.
Control and power electronic technologies are
two common enablers to address these grand challenges.
Empowering next-generation engineers with hands-on
skills in control and power electronics has become a priority
for global higher education. However, setting up a
suitable experimental system requires time, effort, and a
broad range of expertise. This article aims to help
researchers, university professors, graduate students,
and engineers lower the barriers to go real from simulations
to experiments for various power electronic systems
and improve the efficiency and productivity of
research, development, and education.
It shows that it is possible to
obtain experimental results within
hours after completing simulations
by adopting the SYNDEM Smart
Grid Research and Educational Kit,
which is a reconfigurable, opensource,
multifunctional power electronic
converter with the capability
of directly downloading codes from
MATLAB/Simulink. This minimizes
the time, cost, and efforts needed to
develop hardware systems and re -
moves the burden of coding. After
briefly introducing the SYNDEM kit and highlighting the
automatic code generation capability, two case studies
will be illustrated: an ac motor drive and a dc-dc-ac converter
for an integrated PV-storage system.
