Abstract : This paper elaborates on the design of an HFT by considering the influence of leakage inductance and thermal properties on the performance of the converter. The inter-layer spacing is adjusted to find an optimal solution for the leakage inductance. The ferrite EE core is used to mitigate the core losses, and the skin and proximity effects are reduced by the use of Litz wires. A comparison is made on the performance of three materials namely N41, N87, and N97, and the suitable material is finalized for the design. The HFT design is done using the Finite Element Analysis (FEA) in ANSYS Maxwell, and the DAB converter is designed and simulated in ANSYS Twin Builder and the results are analyzed.
