Verification And Validation Of Power Converters For Use In Future Power System Architectures, Alexander Johnston
Verification And Validation Of Power Converters For Use In Future Power System Architectures, Alexander Johnston
Electrical Engineering Dissertations
Electronics are more widely penetrating almost every area of society and as they do, the demand to supply them with regulated power increases considerably. The scale of the electronic power distribution systems needed ranges from those in very small handheld consumer electronic devices all the way up to those needed in large buildings, ships, and cities. The energy supplied within these power distribution systems can come from many different generation sources that operate either individually or simultaneously. When power electronics are controlled properly, simultaneous generation sources can be employed in a way that optimizes them according to the user’s desired …

Electrical Engineering Dissertations
Future power system architectures will rely on a combination of rotating machines, power electronic devices, and energy storage. While it is possible to procure each component separately and conduct studies incorporating these devices into a system, increases in computing power and advanced computer modeling software have expanded the opportunity for research to be conducted on power system architectures without the need for actual hardware. This provides flexibility by allowing the user to design models of individual components that can then be integrated together or effortlessly interchanged depending on the function or testbed design that is being studied. The UTA IDEAL …
