Monitoring the performance of power electronic devices helps identifying potential problems before they cause system failure, thus increasing the reliability and longevity of these systems.</p> <p xmlns="http://ns.editeur.org/onix/3.0/reference">This second edition follows new developments in converter and power electronics research and development. Coverage includes anomaly detection and prognostics, DC-link capacitors, lifetime modelling and prediction, reliability of packaging, active thermal control, test and state monitoring, stochastic hybrid systems models, wind turbine power electronics, adjustable speed drives, reliability analysis for wind and PV power, power supplies for computers, as well as high-power converters. Chapters have been carefully updated as required, and new content has been added on device-level technology.</p> <p xmlns="http://ns.editeur.org/onix/3.0/reference">Offering readers a deeper understanding of the components that form a power electronic system, from the device to system level, this book is aimed at researchers and research professionals across academia, industry and at grid operators, as well as senior students in the field.</p>Mon, 11 Nov 2024 08:49:23 GMThttps://shop.theiet.org:443/reliability-of-power-electronic-converter-systems-2nd-editionhttps://shop.theiet.org:443/rel-power-electron-conv-syst<p xmlns="http://ns.editeur.org/onix/3.0/reference">The main aims of power electronic converter systems (PECS) are to control, convert, and condition electrical power flow from one form to another through the use of solid state electronics. This book outlines current research into the scientific modeling, experimentation, and remedial measures for advancing the reliability, availability, system robustness, and maintainability of PECS at different levels of complexity.</p><p xmlns="http://ns.editeur.org/onix/3.0/reference">Drawing on the experience of an international team of experts, this book explores the reliability of PECS covering topics including an introduction to reliability engineering in power electronic converter systems; anomaly detection and remaining-life prediction for power electronics; reliability of DC-link capacitors in power electronic converters; reliability of power electronics packaging; modeling for life-time prediction of power semiconductor modules; minimization of DC-link capacitance in power electronic converter systems; wind turbine systems; smart control strategies for improved reliability of power electronics system; lifetime modelling; power module lifetime test and state monitoring; tools for performance and reliability analysis of power electronics systems; fault-tolerant adjustable speed drive systems; mission profile-oriented reliability design in wind turbine and photovoltaic systems; reliability of power conversion systems in photovoltaic applications; power supplies for computers; and high-power converters.</p><p xmlns="http://ns.editeur.org/onix/3.0/reference"><i>Reliability of Power Electronic Converter Systems</i> is essential reading for researchers, professionals and students working with power electronics and their applications, particularly those specialising in the development and application of power electronic converters and systems.</p>Mon, 11 Jun 2018 23:54:36 GMThttps://shop.theiet.org:443/rel-power-electron-conv-syst
