Questions

  • Do we want to use a solid-state transformer? Is a solid-state transformer more efficient than a wound transformer?
  • What is the weight savings from using a solid state transformer?

proposed answers

[1] not sure about within small systems but at-least more efficient within a power grid "Solid-state transformers would eliminate all such power-quality problems as well as lowering the amount of current required to supply devices such as electric machinery, cutting down on losses associated with the transmission of electricity throughout the power grid."
