The first part of the textbook is accompanied by a methodological manual for laboratory work, implemented using the departmental software package for modeling power electronics devices PARUS-PARAGRAPH. The material in the second part of the textbook is supported by computerized laboratory courses.

Name: Fundamentals of power electronics.

The principles of electrical energy conversion are outlined: rectification, inversion, frequency conversion, etc. The basic circuits of converting devices, methods of controlling them and regulating the main parameters are described, areas of rational use of various types of converters are shown.
For engineers and technicians who develop and operate electrical systems containing converter devices, as well as those involved in testing and servicing converter equipment.

In electronic engineering, power electronics and information electronics are distinguished. Power electronics originally emerged as a field of technology primarily associated with the transformation of various types of electrical energy through the use of electronic devices. Subsequent advances in the field of semiconductor technologies have made it possible to significantly expand the functionality of power electronic devices and, accordingly, the scope of their application.
Modern power electronics devices make it possible to control the flow of electricity not only for the purpose of converting it from one type to another, but also for distribution, organizing high-speed protection of electrical circuits, reactive power compensation, etc. These functions, closely related to the traditional tasks of the electric power industry, have determined other name of power electronics - energy
electronics.

Power electronics is a field of science and technology that solves the problem of creating power electronic devices, as well as the problem of obtaining significant electrical energy, controlling powerful electrical processes and converting electrical energy into sufficiently large energy of another type when using these devices as the main tool.

Semiconductor-based power electronics devices are discussed below. These devices are the most widely used.

The solar cells discussed above have been used for a long time to generate electrical energy. Currently, the share of this energy in the total volume of electricity is small. However, many scientists, including Nobel Prize winner Academician Zh.I. Alferov, consider solar cells to be very promising sources of electrical energy that do not disrupt the energy balance on Earth.

Control of high-power electrical processes is precisely the problem for which power semiconductor devices are already widely used, and the intensity of their use is rapidly increasing. This is explained by the advantages of power semiconductor devices, the main of which are high speed, low drop in the open state and low drop in the closed state (which ensures low power losses), high reliability, significant current and voltage load capacity, small size and weight, ease of use. control, organic unity with semiconductor devices of information electronics, which facilitates the combination of high-current and low-current elements.

Intensive research work on power electronics has been launched in many countries, and thanks to this, power semiconductor devices, as well as electronic devices based on them, are constantly being improved. This ensures the rapid expansion of power electronics applications, which in turn stimulates research. Here we can talk about positive feedback on the scale of an entire area of human activity. The result is the rapid penetration of power electronics into a wide variety of technical fields.

A particularly rapid proliferation of power electronics devices began after the creation of power field-effect transistors and IGBTs.

This was preceded by a fairly long period when the main power semiconductor device was an unlatched thyristor, created in the 50s of the last century. Non-latching thyristors have played a prominent role in the development of power electronics and are widely used today. But the inability to turn off using control pulses often makes their use difficult. For decades, developers of power devices have had to come to terms with this drawback, in some cases using rather complex power circuit components to turn off thyristors.

The widespread use of thyristors led to the popularity of the term “thyristor technology,” which arose at that time, which was used in the same sense as the term “power electronics.”

The power bipolar transistors developed during this period found their field of application, but did not radically change the situation in power electronics.

Only with the advent of power field-effect transistors and 10 watts were fully controllable electronic switches in the hands of engineers, approaching ideal ones in their properties. This greatly facilitated the solution of a variety of problems related to the control of powerful electrical processes. The presence of fairly advanced electronic switches makes it possible not only to instantly connect a load to a constant or alternating source and disconnect it, but also to generate very large current signals or almost any required shape for it.

The most common typical power electronics devices are:

contactless switching devices alternating and direct current (breakers), designed to turn on or off a load in an alternating or direct current circuit and, sometimes, to regulate the power of the load;

rectifiers, transforming a variable in one polarity (unidirectional);

inverters, converting a constant into a variable;

frequency converters, converting a variable of one frequency into a variable of another frequency;

DC converters(converters) that convert a constant of one quantity into a constant of another quantity;

phase number converters, converting an alternating variable with one number of phases into an alternating one with a different number of phases (usually single-phase is converted to three-phase or three-phase to single-phase);

compensators(power factor correctors), designed to compensate for reactive power in the AC supply network and to compensate for distortions in the current and voltage waveforms.

Essentially, power electronics devices perform the conversion of high-power electrical signals. That's why power electronics is also called converter technology.

Power electronics devices, both standard and specialized, are used in all areas of technology and in almost any fairly complex scientific equipment.

As an illustration, we indicate some objects in which power electronics devices perform important functions:

Electric drive (control of speed and torque, etc.);

Installations for electrolysis (non-ferrous metallurgy, chemical industry);

Electrical equipment for transmitting electricity over long distances using direct current;

Electrometallurgical equipment (electromagnetic mixing of metal, etc.);

Electrothermal installations (induction heating, etc.);

Electrical equipment for charging batteries;

Computers;

Electrical equipment of cars and tractors;

Electrical equipment of aircraft and spacecraft;

Radio communication devices;

Equipment for television broadcasting;

Devices for electric lighting (power supply for fluorescent lamps, etc.);

Medical electrical equipment (ultrasound therapy and surgery, etc.);

Power tools;

Consumer electronics devices.

The development of power electronics is also changing the very approaches to solving technical problems. For example, the creation of power field-effect transistors and IGBTs significantly contributes to expanding the scope of application of inductor motors, which in a number of areas are replacing commutator motors.

A significant factor that has a beneficial effect on the spread of power electronics devices is the success of information electronics and, in particular, microprocessor technology. To control powerful electrical processes, increasingly complex algorithms are used, which can only be rationally implemented using sufficiently advanced information electronics devices.

Effective joint use of advances in power and data electronics produces truly outstanding results.

Existing devices for converting electrical energy into another type of energy when directly using semiconductor devices do not yet have high output power. However, encouraging results were obtained here as well.

Semiconductor lasers convert electrical energy into coherent radiation energy in the ultraviolet, visible and infrared ranges. These lasers were proposed in 1959 and first implemented using gallium arsenide (GaAs) in 1962. Semiconductor-based lasers are characterized by high efficiency (above 10%) and long service life. They are used, for example, in infrared spotlights.

Ultra-bright white LEDs, which appeared in the 90s of the last century, are already used in some cases for lighting instead of incandescent lamps. LEDs are significantly more economical and have a significantly longer service life. It is expected that the scope of LED lighting will expand rapidly.

PREFACE

Power electronics is a constantly developing and promising field of electrical engineering. Advances in modern power electronics have a major impact on the pace of technological progress in all advanced industrial societies. In this regard, there is a need for a wide range of scientific and technical workers to have a clearer understanding of the fundamentals of modern power electronics.

Power electronics currently has fairly well-developed theoretical foundations, but the author did not set himself the task of even partially presenting them, since numerous monographs and textbooks are devoted to these issues. The contents of this book and the methodology for its presentation are intended primarily for engineering and technical workers who are not specialists in the field of power electronics, but are associated with the use and operation of electronic devices and apparatus and who want to gain an understanding of the basic principles of operation of electronic devices, their circuitry and general provisions for development and operation. In addition, most sections of the book can also be used by students of various technical educational institutions when studying disciplines whose curriculum includes issues of power electronics.

Book "Fundamentals of Power Electronics" will allow a beginning radio amateur to step by step, with a soldering iron in his hands, through the thorns to the stars - from understanding the basics of power electronics to the mountain peaks of professional skill.

The information presented in the book is divided into three categories of training levels for specialists in the field of power electronics. After mastering the next stage of preparation and answering unique exam questions, the student is “transferred” to the next level of knowledge.

The book provides practical, theoretical and background information sufficient to enable the reader, as he progresses through the pages of the book, to independently calculate, assemble and configure the electronic design he likes. To improve the reader's professional skills, the book contains numerous useful tips proven by practice, as well as real circuits of electronic devices.
The publication may be useful to readers of different ages and levels of training who are interested in the creation, design, improvement and repair of elements and components of power electronics.
