Ferreira Braham, van der Merwe Wim. The Principles of Electronic and Electromechanic Power Conversion: A Systems Approach

Wiley, 2014. — 328 р. — ISBN: 978-1-118-65609-9.Using an innovative top-down approach, this text makes it possible for readers to master and apply the principles of contemporary power electronics and electromechanic power conversion, exploring both systems and individual components. First, the text introduces the role and system context of power conversion functions. Then the authors examine the building blocks of power conversion systems, describing how the components exchange power. Lastly, readers learn the principles of static and electromechanic power conversion.The Principles of Electronic and Electromechanic Power Conversion opens with a chapter that introduces core concepts in electrical systems and power conversion, followed by a chapter dedicated to electrical power sources and energy storage. Next, the book covers:Power, reactive power, and power factor
Magnetically coupled networks
Dynamics of rotational systems
Power electronic converters
DC machines
AC machines
The text offers readers a concise treatise on the basic concepts of magnetic circuits. Its simple approach to machines
