This fourth and last volume is devoted to DC-AC conversion, i.e. to inverters. For the same reasons as for the choppers, such converters have much evolved recently: multiplied uses of the pulse width modulation. A book reviewing the last progress in the field was therefore particularly needed. Contents: Introduction. - Presentation of the study. Constant-voltage source inverters with square or quasi-square wave output. - Constant-voltage inverters with pulse width modulation. - Commutations in constant-voltage source inverters. - Constant-current source inverters. Resonant-load inverters.

Product Description: This book is the third in a series of four devoted to POWER ELECTRONIC CONVERTERS: The first of these concerns AC to DC conversion. The second concerns AC to AC conversion. This volume examines DC to DC conversion. The fourth is devoted to DC to AC conversion...read more
