HVDC Transmission Power Conversion

To address the pressing need for an up-to-date, A-to-Z treatment of the subject, Drs. Kim and Sood have collaborated on this key textbook and professional reference. The work combines classroom-tested materials from both Kim and Sood, compactly summarizes the latest research results, and includes the insights of experts from power electronics, control, and simulation backgrounds. The authors walk readers through basic theory and practical applications, while also providing the broader historical context and future development of HVDC technology. Gives an interdisciplinary view by combining experts from HVDC, power electronics, control, and simulation backgrounds Presents case studies to understand solutions for real-world application Rounds out readers' understanding with chapters dedicated to the key areas of simulation and main circuit design Updates engineers on new HVDC technologies: active filters, PWM, VSC, 800 KV systems Arms readers with an understanding of future HVDC trends Downloadable PowerPoint files of all book illustrations
