Author Description

Control and Filter Design of <b>Single-Phase Grid-Connected Converters</b> <p><b>A state-of-the-art discussion of modern grid inverters</b> <p>In <i>Control and Filter Design of Single-Phase Grid-Connected Converters</i>, a team of distinguished researchers deliver a robust and authoritative treatment of critical distributed power generation technologies, grid-connected inverter designs, and renewable energy utilization. The book includes detailed explanations of the system structure of distributed generation (DG)-grid interface converters and the methods of controlling DG-grid interface voltage source converters (VSCs) with high-order filters. <p>The authors also explore the challenges and obstacles associated with modern power electronic grid-connected inverter control technology and introduce some designed systems that meet these challenges, such as the grid impedance canceller. <p>Readers will discover demonstrations of basic principles, guidelines, examples, and design and simulation programs for grid-connected inverters based on LCL/LLCL technology. They will also find: <ul><li> A thorough introduction to the architectures of DG-grid interfacing converters, including the challenges of controlling DG-grid interfacing VSCs with high-order filters</li> <li> Comprehensive explorations of the control structure and modulation techniques of single-phase grid-tied inverters</li> <li> Practical discussions of an LLCL power filter for single-phase grid-tied inverters</li> <li> Fulsome treatments of design methods of passive damping for LCL/LLCL-filtered grid-tied inverters</li></ul> <p>Perfect for researchers, postgraduate students, and senior level undergraduate students of electrical engineering, <i>Control and Filter Design of Single-Phase Grid-Connected Converters </i>will also benefit research & development engineers involved with the design and manufacture of power electronic inverters.
