Synopsis
A comprehensive treatment of the principles of power electronics, this text is unusually thorough in that it covers the high-power circuits associated with thyristorised power controllersand the low-power electronic control circuitry vital to the operation of a practical system. A special feature of the book is its detailed presentation of gating and control circuits associated with each type of converter. An outstanding text and reference for the study and design of power electronic apparatus such as thyristor converters, cycloconverters, inverters, and choppers.

Synopsis
A comprehensive treatment of the subject of power electronics is provided in this book. It deals with the principles of operation of various thyristorised power controllers systematically, and explains the important basic concepts for a beginner. For advanced readers and practising engineers it covers many topics such as static reactive power compensation, power factor control, current source inverter, time-sharing inverter, multiphase chopper and harmonic control in PWM inverters. Problems are given at the end of the book to test understanding of the basic principles.
