Nelson Jhoe Batistela

In 2018, N. J. Batistela becomes Full Professor at the Federal University of Santa Catarina (UFSC). At this university, he has more than 17 years of experience in giving regular curses at undergraduate level (Electrical Machines, Power Electronics and Motor Drives, Electrical Measurements) and Graduate level (Magnetic Materials). On research and development projects, he was the coordinator of projects: a) "Field efficiency assessment of three-phase induction motors" concluded in 2016, b) "Development of equipment for fault detection in synchronous generators through external magnetic field" concluded in 2015. The results of these projects were a) patent application "System and method to identify characteristics of an electrical machine", patent number BR1020150114389, filed on 05/19/2015; b) patent application "System and Method to Determine the Efficiency of Induction Motors on the Field and in Operation", patent number BR1020170078892, filed on 04/17/2017. In his research group, Batistela participates in the following research and development projects: a) 2019: development of axial flow motor and new manufacturing processes; b) 2018: development of new metallic materials to enable increased energy efficiency and sustainability of compressors; c) 2018: Subplot Finite Element Method for Magnetic Model Refinements - Application to Power Transformers and Electrical Machines. Batistela's production is relevant: in the last five years he has co-authored twenty scientific papers in indexed journals and more than forty-five papers published in proceedings of scientific conferences. Batistela has acted strongly in the guidance of master and doctoral students, and currently advises five PhD students and four Master students. He reviewed more than 40 articles for journals (IEEE Transactions on Magnetics; Journal of Microwaves, Optoelectronics and Electromagnetic Applications (Brazilian), International Journal of Numerical Modeling: Electronic Networks, Devices and Fields; SBA Journal: Control & Automation (Brazilian); European Journal of Electrical Engineering; Research Materials; Power Electronics (SOBRAEP) (Brazilian); IEEE Transactions on Power Delivery, COMPEL). In addition to Batistela's active participation as a reviewer of scientific papers of international and Brazilian journals, he reviewed many papers submitted in international and Brazilian scientific conferences. He joined the Department of Electrical Engineering at UFSC in 2002 and is now engaged in education and research on Electromagnetic Devices, Electric Machinery, and Electromagnetism. His research interests include magnetic materials, iron losses, hysteresis models, power electronics applied to electrical machines, and electromagnetic experimentation. Current research includes: investigation of magnetic materials; investigation of incipient faults in synchronous machines and in three-phase induction motors; determination of efficiency and of parameters values of three-phase induction motor models.
