Power Magnetic Devices - (IEEE Press Power and Energy Systems) 2nd Edition by Scott D Sudhoff (Hardcover)

About the Book

"This work is intended either as a text book for a senior-level/beginning graduate-level course, or as a resource for the practicing engineer. There are three objectives for the text. The first is to set forth a systematic multi-objective-optimization based approach for the semi-automated design of power magnet components. A second objective of the text is to discuss physical principals and analysis necessary for the design of power magnetic devices including fields, magnet equivalent circuit analysis, core loss, eddy current losses, thermal analysis, skin and proximity effect, and the like. The third objective of the text is to provide some fundamental background in a variety of devices including inductors, electromagnets, transformers, and rotating electric machinery. It is not the intent to provide a cookbook of design information for all devices. Rather, it is the intent to position to leave the reader well poised to start adapting the approach to specific devices of interest to their work - whether it be a transformer or a novel type of rotating machine. From a pedagogical point of view, the organization of the text is designed to involve the reader in the design process as rapidly as possible. While it might be more efficient to discuss all relevant physical effects, and then to discuss the design, such an approach is not always satisfying in that it leaves the reader hungry for a meal a long time before dinner is served. For that that reason, the first thirteen chapters of the text generally alternate between discussing a physical effect and considering a design problem in which that effect is considered"--

Book Synopsis

Power Magnetic Devices

Discover a cutting-edge discussion of the design process for power magnetic devices

In the newly revised second edition of Power Magnetic Devices: A Multi-Objective Design Approach, accomplished engineer and author Dr. Scott D. Sudhoff delivers a thorough exploration of the design principles of power magnetic devices such as inductors, transformers, and rotating electric machinery using a systematic and consistent framework.

The book includes new chapters on converter and inverter magnetic components (including three-phase and common-mode inductors) and elaborates on characteristics of power electronics that are required knowledge in magnetics. New chapters on parasitic capacitance and finite element analysis have also been incorporated into the new edition. The work further includes:

• A thorough introduction to evolutionary computing-based optimization and magnetic analysis techniques
• Discussions of force and torque production, electromagnet design, and rotating electric machine design
• Full chapters on high-frequency effects such as skin- and proximity-effect losses, core losses and their characterization, thermal analysis, and parasitic capacitance
• Treatments of dc-dc converter design, as well as three-phase and common-mode inductor design for inverters
• An extensive open-source MATLAB code base, PowerPoint slides, and a solutions manual

Perfect for practicing power engineers and designers, Power Magnetic Devices will serve as an excellent textbook for advanced undergraduate and graduate courses in electromechanical and electromagnetic design.
