Description
The authors were originally brought together to share research and applications through the international Danfoss Professor Programme
at Aalborg University in Denmark.
Personal computers would be unwieldy and inefficient without power electronic dc supplies. Portable
communication devices and computers would also be impractical. High-performance lighting systems, motor controls, and a wide range of
industrial controls depend on power electronics. In the near future we can expect strong growth in automotive applications, dc power
supplies for communication systems, portable applications, and high-end converters. We are approaching a time when all electrical energy
will be processed and controlled through power electronics somewhere in the path from generation to end use.
