Phasor Power Electronics

Synopsis

This book presents a comprehensive introduction to the principles ofpower electronics, focusing on the switched transformer concept and phasortransformation techniques as employed in the analysis and design of power electronic circuits. Phasor transformations, asintroduced in this book, make the time-varying nature of a switching convertersimple and easy to handle, transforming it into an equivalent time-invariantcircuit. The book starts with an introduction to the philosophy and fundamentalprinciples of power electronics. The switched transformer concept, which isapplicable to any switching converter, is introduced, and it is shown how DC-DCconverters analyses are then so straightforward that very little equationalmanipulation is needed. Then the phasor transformation techniques arecomprehensively explained over three parts. Single phase and multi-phase ACsystems are dealt with through the single phase phasor transformation andcircuit DQ transformation, respectively. A general unified phasor transformationis then introduced for the static and dynamic cases. The final part of the bookconsiders current and potential extensions of the technique in various fieldsof application, including wireless power transfer, signal processing, powersystems and renewable energy. The book avoids the piece-wise linear circuit models used in othertitles, with which the mathematical results become too complicated to be usedin practice. No cumbersome equations or matrix manipulations are needed withthe phasor transformation techniques introduced in this book. It will be avaluable reference source for engineering students and practising researchersin power electronics and related areas.
