This two-volume work captures in a clearly written format the results of more than 40 years of research and teaching in the disciplines of power electronics at Duke University. The late Professor Thomas G. Wilson, a pioneer in the nascent field of power electronics, leveraged his knowledge of magnetics principles and nonlinear magnetic devices to complement rapid advancements in power semiconductor devices and circuits. Through research projects sponsored by NASA and the telecommunications and computer industries, Prof. Wilson and his co-investigator, the late Professor Harry A. Owen, Jr., forged new paths of research and discovery as power electronics evolved into an important enabling technology for modern electronic systems. Late in their careers, they collaborated on the writing of this book in order to share their acquired knowledge with those interested in exploring power electronics.
An important distinguishing feature of this work is its emphasis on magnetics theory, materials, and applications. This topic, though critical to the understanding of power conversion processes, is often underrepresented in power electronics publications. However, there is significant untapped potential available to those engineers who choose to pursue more completely these principles of magnetics theory and design.
The third author, Dr. Thomas G. Wilson, Jr., is the president of Simplis Technologies, a developer of leading simulation tools for power electronics systems. Dr. Wilson brings his decades of research and knowledge of piecewise linear analysis to Volume 2, where the modeling and analysis of energy storage dc-to-dc converters is treated extensively, and a method for designing the energy storage reactor using the winding turns N versus effective relative permeability μr plane is introduced.
This book serves as a text for senior undergraduate or graduate level courses for students beginning their journey into power electronics. It is written with the skill of experienced teachers, for the purpose of teaching. Numerous detailed examples are presented to give the reader opportunities to learn by doing. It also serves as an excellent reference book for those working in the field of power electronics who want to enhance their understanding of the fundamental principles that make the power conversion process possible.
Volume I of this text discusses nonlinear component and circuit modeling, magnetics fundamentals and applications. This basic material is followed by discussions of responses of transformers under various excitation conditions, the design of transformers, and considerations of leakage flux and leakage inductance in magnetic structures.
Volume II builds on this fundamental understanding and introduces steady-state analysis techniques for a combination of reactor-energy-storage dc-to-dc converter configurations and control laws.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to Revaluation Books, Hounslow, United Kingdom, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
Shipping terms
