Title: Application of Digital Twins for Design and Operation of a Power Electronic Devices
Keywords: design, Digital Twins, operation, optimization, power electronics, preventive maintenance

Abstract: In recent years, the concept of Digital Twins has gained significant popularity across various industries, including power electronics. This paper explores the application of Digital Twins in the design and operation of power electronic devices. Digital Twins are dynamic virtual replicas of physical systems that enable real-time simulations, optimization, and predictive control of the devices. The main objective of the study is to analyze how the integration of Digital Twins can enhance the design process as well as the operational performance of power electronic devices. By using digital models, engineers can optimize device parameters, predict potential failures, and minimize downtime through preventive maintenance.
