Beschreibung

Hardcover. The book presents the latest power conversion and control technology in modern wind energy systems. It has nine chapters, covering technology overview and market survey, electric generators and modeling, power converters and modulation techniques, wind turbine characteristics and configurations, and control schemes for fixed- and variable-speed wind energy systems. The book also provides in-depth steady-state and dynamic analysis of squirrel cage induction generator, doubly fed induction generator, and synchronous generator based wind energy systems. To illustrate the key concepts and help the reader tackle real-world issues, the book contains more than 30 case studies and 100 solved problems in addition to simulations and experiments. The book serves as a comprehensive reference for academic researchers and practicing engineers. It can also be used as a textbook for graduate students and final year undergraduate students. Wind energy is clean and sustainable and one of the fastest growing renewable energy resources in the world. Power conversion and control is one of the most important technologies in a wind energy system. The book covers a wide range of topics on wind energy conversion and control from an electrical engineering perspective. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
