Inductors And Transformers For Power Electronics – Alex Van den Bossche, Vencislav Cekov Valchev

Description

Inductors and Transformers for Power Electronics is a specialised engineering reference that provides a thorough and practical guide to the design of magnetic components in power electronic converters. This non-fiction technical book belongs to the field of electrical engineering, focusing on the efficient and accurate design of inductors and transformers. It eliminates the uncertainty often present in component design and streamlines the process with proven methods.

Covering classical techniques alongside advanced tools like the finite element method, the book addresses all aspects of magnetic component design, including core and winding selection, thermal management, insulation, eddy currents, and parasitic effects. It offers both rapid estimation methods for early design stages and more detailed models for deeper analysis. With practical suggestions, thermal models, and loss measurement strategies, Inductors and Transformers for Power Electronics helps engineers move beyond trial-and-error to achieve reliable and optimised designs.

Ideal for electrical engineers and advanced students in power electronics, this book is a vital resource for improving design accuracy and efficiency in magnetic components.
