In high power, high voltage electronics systems, a strategy to manage short timescale energy imbalances is fundamental to the system reliability. Without a theoretical framework, harmful local convergence of energy can affect the dynamic process of transformation, transmission, and storage which create an unreliable system. With an original approach that encourages understanding of both macroscopic and microscopic factors, the authors offer a solution. They demonstrate the essential theory and methodology for the design, modeling and prototyping of modern power electronics converters to create highly effective systems. Current applications such as renewable energy systems and hybrid electric vehicles are discussed in detail by the authors. Key features: offers a logical guide that is widely applicable to power electronics across power supplies, renewable energy systems, and many other areas analyses the short-scale (nano-micro second) transient phenomena and the transient processes in nearly all major timescales, from device switching processes at the nanoscale level, to thermal and mechanical processes at second level explores transient causes and shows how to correct them by changing the control algorithm or peripheral circuit includes two case studies on power electronics in hybrid electric vehicles and renewable energy systems Practitioners in major power electronic companies will benefit from this reference, especially design engineers aiming for optimal system performance. It will also be of value to faculty staff and graduate students specializing in power electronics within academia.

Converter-Based Dynamics and Control of Modern Power Systems addresses the ongoing changes and challenges in rotating masses of synchronous generators, which are transforming dynamics of the electrical system. These changes make it more important to consider and understand the role of power electronic systems and their characteristics in shaping the subtleties of the grid and this book fills that knowledge gap. Balancing theory, discussion, diagrams, mathematics, and data, this reference provides the information needed to acquire a thorough overview of resilience issues and frequency definition and estimation in modern power systems. This book offers an overview of classical power system dynamics and identifies ways of establishing future challenges and how they can be considered at a global level to overcome potential problems. The book is designed to prepare future engineers for operating a system that will be driven by electronics and less by electromechanical systems. - Includes theory on the emerging topic of electrical grids based on power electronics - Creates a good bridge between traditional theory and modern theory to support researchers and engineers - Links the two fields of power systems and power electronics in electrical engineering

Building on solid state device and electromagnetic contributions to the series, this text book introduces modern power electronics, that is the application of semiconductor devices to the control and conversion of electrical power. The increased availability of solid state power switches has created a very rapid expansion in applications, from the relatively low power control of domestic equipment, to high power control of industrial processes and very high power control along transmission lines. This text provides a comprehensive introduction to the entire range of devices and examines their applications, assuming only the minimum mathematical and electronic background. It covers a full year's course in power electronics. Numerous exercises, worked examples and self assessments are included to facilitate self study and distance learning.

Protection of Modern Power Systems Familiarize yourself with the cutting edge of power system protection technology All electrical systems are vulnerable to faults, whether produced by damaged equipment or the cumulative breakdown of insulation. Protection from these faults is therefore an essential part of electrical engineering, and the various forms of protection that have developed constitute a central component of any course of study related to power systems. Particularly in recent decades, however, the demands of decarbonization and reduced dependency on fossil fuels have driven innovation in the field of power systems. With new systems and paradigms come new kinds of faults and new protection needs, which promise to place power systems protection once again at the forefront of research and development. Protection of Modern Power Systems offers the first classroom-ready textbook to fully incorporate developments in renewable energy and ‘smart’ power systems into its overview of the field. It begins with a comprehensive guide to the principles of power system protection, before surveying the systems and equipment used in modern protection schemes, and finally discussing new and emerging protection paradigms. It promises to become the standard text in power system protection classrooms. Protection of Modern Power Systems readers will also find: Treatment of the new faults and protection paradigms produced by the introduction of new renewable generators Discussion of SmartGrids—intelligently-controlled active systems designed to integrate renewable energy into the power system—and their protection needs Detailed exploration of Synchronized Measurement Technology and Intelligent Electronic Devices Accompanying website to include Solutions Manual for instructors Protection of Modern Power Systems is an essential resource for students, researchers, and system engineers looking for a working knowledge of this critical subject.
