Designing and simulation of power electronic circuits (Rectifiers - AC voltage contollers- DC-DC converters - Invertes)

Design and analyze electronic components and systems with the help of powerful software and effective skillsets. Balancing theory with practical exploration of the relevant software, you'll start solving power electronics problems like a pro. Using MATLAB®/Simulink®, you'll analyze the circuit in a laptop charger; interface with the power electronics converter controlling a washing machine's motor; turn on lamps with an electronic ballast; convert AC into DC power; and more!
Power electronics are at the bedrock of all the wonderful devices simplifying our daily life. Designing them isn't just about understanding schematics. It also requires measuring twice and cutting once. In order to save time and money, a power electronics circuit must be simulated before construction. So you'll learn how to work with one of the most powerful simulation tools for this purpose. That way you'll know before you even go to make it whether the circuit works as expected.

The largest and most comprehensive bundle on power electronics and electrical protection for electrical engineering

Power electronics became an identifiably separate area of electrical engineering with the invention of the thyristor about 30 years ago. The growing demand for controllability and conversion of electric energy has made this area increasingly important, which in turn has resulted in new device, circuit and control developments. In particular, new components, such as the GTO and power MOSFET, continue to extend power electronic technology to new applications. The technology embodied by the name "power electronics" is complex. It consists of both power level and signal level electronics, as well as thermal, mechanical, control, and protection systems.

Most traditional power systems textbooks focus on high-voltage transmission.

Power electronic devices and systems are attracting growing attention due to the electrification of energy conversion systems being a key factor in efforts to reduce fuel combustion and achieve carbon neutrality. This book provides a concept of software-defined power electronics architecture to generalize the power converter design and control procedures with various interfaced applications. The ultimate objective is to construct a reconfigurable software-defined power electronics architecture with standardized atomic power modules that can be leveraged for different electrified energy resources, such as electric vehicle charging, electric motor traction, solar power, and wind power. Several advanced control and design techniques are introduced in detail to achieve the proposed concept with a high-performance energy conversion system, including optimization-based control and estimation, variable frequency soft switching, and passive component design and optimization. The proposed generalized architecture also contributes to avoiding redundant hardware and algorithms design procedures.
