Description for Flexible Power Transmission: The HVDC Options
Hardcover. The development of power semiconductors with greater ratings and improved characteristics has meant that the power industry has become more willing to develop new converter configurations. These new configurations take advantage of the higher controllability and switching frequencies of the new devices. Num Pages: 374 pages, Illustrations. BIC Classification: THR. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 252 x 177 x 27. Weight in Grams: 850.
The development of power semiconductors with greater ratings and improved characteristics has meant that the power industry has become more willing to develop new converter configurations. These new configurations take advantage of the higher controllability and switching frequencies of the new devices. The next few years will decide which of the proposed technologies will dominate future power transmission systems.

Flexible Power Transmission is a comprehensive guide to the high voltage direct current (HVDC) options available, helping the reader to make informed decisions for designing future power transmission systems. The book includes:
- a full description of the principles and components ... Read more
- a detailed overview of the flexible HVDC methods for improving controllability and increasing power transfer capability in electrical power systems.
- up-to-date information on thyrisistor-based HVDC technology.
- coverage of new pulse width modulation (PWM) transmission technology and multi-level voltage source conversion (VSC) and current source conversion (CSC).
An excellent reference for professional power engineers, Flexible Power Transmission is also a useful guide for power system researchers as well as lecturers and students in power systems and power electronics disciplines.
