This book, Power Electronics provides a good understanding of the power-electronic components and the behaviour of power electronic controllers by presenting systematically all important aspects of semiconductor devices and the common types of electric power controllers. The book begins with the study of salient features of power diodes, power transistors, MOS- controlled thyristors and also other related topics. Each chapter begins at an introductory level and is so developed progressively that an average student can comprehend the subject matter easily. The topics covered in this volume include diode circuits and rectifiers, phase-controlled rectifiers, inverters, a.c. voltage controllers, etc. A large number of illustrative figures and a wide variety of worked examples add to the clarity of presentation. |
