POWER ELECTRONICS

With this revised edition we aim to present a text on Power Electronics for the UG level which will provide a comprehensive coverage of converters, choppers, inverters and motor drives. All this, with a rich pedagogy to support the conceptual understanding and integral use of PSPICE. Features New to the book is a chapter on Resonant Converters. (Ch 16) Fully revised chapter on: Phase controller rectifiers with addition of dual converters. (Ch 6) Choppers with addition of Transistor flyback configuration and GTO chopper. (CH 8) Inverters with addition of Transistorized inverters, Power MOSFET inverters, IGBT inverters & GTO inverters. (Ch 9) Cycloconverters with the addition of Integral cycle control. (Ch 10) DC Motor Drives. (Ch 14) Computer simulation of Power Electronic Circuits using PSPICE throughout is entirely new to the book. Pedagogy Includes: 194 solved problems 501 review questions 297 Multiple choice questions 114 unsolved problems
