Ein Referenzwerk mit Erläuterungen zum Verhalten von elektronischen Leistungswandlern fehlte bislang. Dieses Fachbuch bietet Informationen, die in vergleichbaren Publikationen zur Leistungselektronik nicht enthalten sind. In einer übersichtlichen Struktur werden in vier Abschnitten die folgenden Themen behandelt. Der erste Abschnitt beschäftigt sich mit der Dynamik und Steuerung herkömmlicher Leistungswandler. Dynamik und Steuerung von Gleichspannungswandlern in Anwendungen mit erneuerbaren Energien sind Gegenstand des zweiten Abschnitts, der auch eine Einführung in die Quellen und das Design von stromgespeisten Leistungswandlern nach dem Prinzip der Dualitätstransformation. Der dritte Abschnitt beschreibt die Dynamik und Steuerung von dreiphasigen Gleichrichtern in spannungsgespeisten Anwendungen. Im letzten Abschnitt geht es um die Dynamik und Steuerung von dreiphasigen VS-Umrichtern bei Anwendungen mit erneuerbaren Energien. Dieses zukunftsorientierte Fachbuch mit fundierten Informationen aus erster Hand ist das Referenzwerk der Wahl für Forscher und Ingenieure, die ein zugängliches Nachschlagewerk zu Design und Steuerung von elektronischen Leistungswandlern benötigen.

Filling the need for a reference that explains the behavior of power electronic converters, this book provides information currently unavailable in similar texts on power electronics.
Clearly organized into four parts, the first treats the dynamics and control of conventional converters, while the second part covers the dynamics and control of DC-DC converters in renewable energy applications, including an introduction to the sources as well as the design of current-fed converters applying duality-transformation methods. The third part treats the dynamics and control of three-phase rectifiers in voltage-sourced applications, and the final part looks at the dynamics and control of three-phase inverters in renewable-energy applications.
With its future-oriented perspective and advanced, first-hand knowledge, this is a prime resource for researchers and practicing engineers needing a ready reference on the design and control of power electronic converters.

Tuomas Messo is Assistant Professor in Power Electronics at Tampere University of Technology, Finland. His current research aims to identify the source of harmonic resonance problems reported in grid-connected power electronic systems through dynamic modeling and mitigating the problems by shaping the inverter impedance. His teaching activities include basic power electronic courses and advanced courses, which concentrate on DC-DC converter design and dynamic analysis of three-phase DC-AC converters. Joonas Puukko is with ABB Oy High Power Drives in Helsinki, Finland. Previously he was with ABB Oy Solar Inverters and ABB Inc. United States Corporate Research. He obtained his PhD from Tampere University of Technology, Finland, for a work on dynamics of grid-connected three-phase converters. He has expertise in hardware and control system design in various power electronics applications ranging from few tens of watts to hundreds of kilowatts.
