Power Electronics * Power Electronics Chapter 1 Introduction Outline What is power electronics? The history Applications A simple example About this course What is power electronics? Definition Relation with information electronics The interdisciplinary nature Position and significance in the human society Power Electronics: A more exact explanation: is the electronics applied to conversion and control of electric power. Range of power scale : milliwatts(mW) megawatts(MW) gigawatts(GW) Definition The primary task of power electronics is to process and control the flow of electric energy by supplying voltages and currents in a form that is optimally suited for user loads. Conversion of electric power Other names for electric power converter: -Power converter -Converter -Switching converter -Power electronic circuit -Power electronic converter Electric Power Converter Power output Power input Control input Frequency, magnitude, number of phases AC (Alternating Current) Magnitude DC(Direct Current) Changeable properties in conversion Two types of electric power Typical power sources and loads for a power electronic system The task of power electronics has been recently extended to also ensuring the currents and power consumed by power converters and loads to meet the requirement of electric energy sources. -Electric Motor -light -heating-power converter -other electric or electronic equipment Power Converter Source Power input Power output Load Controller Reference -Electric utility-battery-other electric energy source -power converter Feedback/ Feed forward A Classification of electronics by processing object Relation with information electronics Electronics Information electronics: to process information Power electronics: to process electric power Other classific
