POWER ELECTRONICS A FIRST COURSE Enables students to understand
power electronics systems, as one course, in an integrated electric
energy systems curriculum Power Electronics A First Course provides
instruction on fundamental concepts related to power electronics to
undergraduate electrical engineering students, beginning with an
introductory chapter and moving on to discussing topics such as
switching power-poles, switch-mode dc-dc converters, and feedback
controllers. The authors also cover diode rectifiers,
power-factor-correction (PFC) circuits, and switch-mode dc power
supplies. Later chapters touch on soft-switching in dc-dc power
converters, voltage and current requirements imposed by various
power applications, dc and low-frequency sinusoidal ac voltages,
thyristor converters, and the utility applications of harnessing
energy from renewable sources. Power Electronics A First Course is
the only textbook that is integrated with hardware experiments and
simulation results. The simulation files are available on a website
associated with this textbook. The hardware experiments will be
available through a University of Minnesota startup at a low cost.
In Power Electronics A First Course, readers can expect to find
detailed information on: Availability of various power
semiconductor devices that are essential in power electronic
systems, plus their switching characteristics and various tradeoffs
Common foundational unit of various converters and their operation,
plus fundamental concepts for feedback control, illustrated by
means of regulated dc-dc converters Basic concepts associated with
magnetic circuits, to develop an understanding of inductors and
transformers needed in power electronics Problems associated with
hard switching, and some of the practical circuits where this
problem can be minimized with soft-switching Power Electronics A
First Course is an ideal textbook for Junior/Senior-Undergraduate
students in Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE). It is also
valuable to students outside of ECE, such as those in more general
engineering fields. Basic understanding of electrical engineering
concepts and control systems is a prerequisite.
