Abstract:

As the number of electronic devices in our daily lives increases day by day, the risk of electromagnetic interference (EMI) between the devices and between the device and the grid increases. Refrigerators are the only devices found in almost every home and work non-stop. Besides refrigerators have many electrical and electronic components that may contribute to EMI. For this reason, refrigerators have importance in terms of electromagnetic interference. This study, it is aimed to analyze the changes in the components of a refrigerator on a specific electromagnetic compatibility test. Three refrigerators with different cable distributions have been prepared for this research. Conducted emission tests have been performed for phase lines and neutral lines to examine the impact of the cable distributions on EMI. In addition, the impact of ferrite core and amorphous core which are kinds of ferrite filters is studied. In addition to literature information, all test results with graphs and tables are included in this thesis.

Bio:

Arda Maro completed his primary, secondary, and high school education in İzmir. He graduated from Ege University, Department of Chemical Engineering in 2008. After graduation, he worked as a sales representative at Alme Kimya for 3 months. He started working as a Product Safety Engineer at Vestel Beyaz Eşya in 2010. After dealing with the chemical safety of refrigerator products in the first years, he continued his duty by dealing with the chemical, mechanical, electrical, electronic, and electromagnetic safety issues. He received the title of Refrigerator product Safety Responsible in 2016 and Senior Design Architect in 2021. He is currently working as a Senior Design Architect. He started his master's degree at Özyeğin University, Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering in 2020.
