AC/DC/AC and DC/AC/DC Converters

AC/DC/AC and DC/AC/DC conversion technologies are a special subject area in research and industrial applications. AC/DC/AC converters are usually used in synchronous and asynchronous AC motor adjustable speed drives (ASD). In recent years, they have been widely used in renewable energy systems. DC/AC/DC converters are usually used in high-voltage equipment to isolate the source side and load side. They are used in medium and large power systems as well.

17.1  INTRODUCTION

Renewable energy sources have become popular in recent years. Most renewable energy sources involve distributed generations (DG). These sources, such as fuel cells, solar panels, photovoltaic cells, wind turbines, are not standard general ...
