Power Electronics, A First Course: Simulations and Laboratory Implementations (2nd Edition) – eBook

Description

POWER ELECTRONICS: A FIRST COURSE, SECOND EDITION

This comprehensive resource empowers students to grasp the intricate systems of power electronics as part of a cohesive electric energy systems curriculum.

Power Electronics: A First Course, 2nd Edition (PDF) serves as an essential textbook for undergraduate electrical engineering scholars. It begins with foundational concepts before diving into pivotal topics such as the design of switching power poles, the intricacies of switch-mode DC-DC converters, and the implementation of feedback controllers.

The authors meticulously explore key elements including diode rectifiers, power-factor correction (PFC) circuits, and switch-mode DC power supplies. Advanced chapters expand on specialized subjects such as soft-switching techniques in DC-DC power converters, the voltage and current configurations needed for diverse power applications, and the utilization of DC and low-frequency sinusoidal AC voltages. Additionally, the book discusses thyristor converters and the utility of renewable energy sources in modern power applications.

Power Electronics: A First Course 2E distinguishes itself as the only textbook that seamlessly integrates hardware experiments with simulation outcomes. Readers can access simulation files via a dedicated website linked to the textbook. Furthermore, affordable hardware experiments will soon be made available through a startup program at the University of Minnesota.

In Power Electronics: A First Course: Simulations and Laboratory Implementations, 2nd Edition, students will discover extensive insights on:

• The range of power semiconductor devices vital for power electronic systems, alongside their switching characteristics and associated tradeoffs
• The foundational units of various converters, elucidating their operation, plus essential feedback control concepts as demonstrated through regulated DC-DC converters
• Core principles related to magnetic circuits, paving the way for a solid understanding of inductors and transformers necessary for power electronics
• The challenges presented by hard switching and practical circuit solutions that effectively utilize soft-switching to alleviate these issues

Power Electronics: A First Course 2nd Edition is tailored for Junior and Senior undergraduate students in Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE). Its relevance extends to students in other engineering disciplines as well. A basic knowledge of electrical engineering principles and control systems is required to fully benefit from this material.
