OpenComp3d: An open-source framework dedicated to design in power electronics

Abstract This paper is an overview of an innovative optimization framework developed for the design of power converters, which is available under MIT licence in a github repository ( https://github.com/Laplace-cs/OpenComp3d ). In the first part, the general principles, structure and standards are presented. In the second part, an example is performed to optimize the output inductor of a buck converter showing the advantages of the proposed methodology.
