Description:
Control of Power Electronic Converters, Volume Two gives the theory behind power
electronic converter control and discusses the operation, modeling and control of basic
converters. The main components of power electronics systems that produce a desired effect
(energy conversion, robot motion, etc.) by controlling system variables (voltages and currents)
are thoroughly covered. Both small (mobile phones, computer power supplies) and very large
systems (trains, wind turbines, high voltage power lines) and their power ranges, from the Watt
to the Gigawatt, are presented and explored. Users will find a focused resource on how to apply
innovative control techniques for power converters and drives.
