Power Electronic Converters Modeling and Control

Modern power electronic converters are involved in a very broad spectrum of applications: switched-mode power supplies, electrical-machine-motion-control, active power filters, distributed power generation, flexible AC transmission systems, renewable energy conversion systems and vehicular technology, among them. Electronic power conversion has gained widespread acceptance in power systems applications, electronic power converters are increasingly employed for power conversion and conditioning, compensation, and active filtering. This book presents the fundamentals for analysis and control of a specific class of high-power electronic converters-the three-phase voltage-sourced converter. Voltage-sourced converters in power systems provides a necessary and unprecedented link between the principles of operation and the applications of voltage-sourced converters. Power Electronics Converters Modelling and Control teaches the reader how to analyse and model the behaviour of converters and so to improve their design and control. Dealing with a set of confirmed algorithms specifically developed for use with power converters.
