Fundamentals Of Industrial Electronics: An Engineering Approach to Power Systems, Automation, and Drive Technology - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

Industrial electronics becomes difficult when power conversion, motors, drives, sensors, and control systems are learned as disconnected subjects. A rectifier feeds a DC link. An inverter drives a motor. Sensors turn physical conditions into signals. A controller interprets those signals and commands the equipment. Protection and power-quality considerations determine whether the complete system can operate reliably.

Fundamentals of Industrial Electronics brings these relationships together in one structured technical guide. It starts with industrial power distribution and the electrical quantities that support later analysis, then moves through semiconductor devices and the major power-conversion circuits used in industrial equipment.

Readers are guided through the analysis of rectifiers, DC–DC converters, inverters, AC voltage controllers, cycloconverters, and transformers before moving into electric motors and variable-frequency drives. The book then extends the system view to industrial sensors, signal conditioning, programmable logic controllers, feedback control, PID tuning, and industrial power quality and protection.

Inside, readers can explore:

• How industrial power systems are organized and analysed, including three-phase power, power factor, per-unit calculations, transformers, switchgear, and protection.
• How power semiconductor devices behave, how losses are calculated, how gate-drive requirements are approached, and how thermal limits affect design.
• How common converter and inverter topologies are analysed using voltage, current, switching, ripple, modulation, and harmonic relationships.
• How induction, synchronous, permanent-magnet synchronous, and DC motors behave and how their characteristics relate to industrial loads.
• How variable-frequency drives combine rectification, DC-link energy storage, inversion, and motor-control strategies.
• How industrial sensors are selected and conditioned, including temperature, pressure, flow, speed, proximity, current-loop measurement, and analogue-to-digital conversion.
• How PLCs and feedback controllers are structured, including ladder logic, sequencing, PID tuning, stability, and advanced control structures.
• How harmonics, voltage disturbances, power-factor correction, grounding, protective relaying, and arc-flash considerations fit into industrial power systems.

This book is designed for upper-level engineering students, practicing engineers, engineering technologists, and technical readers who need a connected treatment of industrial electronics rather than an isolated discussion of one component or subsystem.

Open the book and work through the power, conversion, drive, measurement, control, and protection concepts that form the modern industrial electrical system.
