INVERTERS& BATTERIES
A device which converts dc power into AC power at desired output voltage and frequency is called inverter.
Classification
(i) Voltage Source Inverters: It is defined as the dc source in which impedance is negligible.
(ii) Current Source Inverter: CSI is fed with adjustable current from a dc source of high impedance.
Applications
Power electronic systems are found in virtually every electronic device. For example:
DC/DC converters are used in most mobile devices (mobile phones, PDA etc.) to maintain the voltage at a fixed value
whatever the voltage level of the battery is. These converters are also used for electronic isolation and power
factor correction.
AC/DC converters (rectifiers) are used every time an electronic device is connected to the mains (computer, television
etc.). These may simply change AC to DC or can also change the voltage level as part of their operation.
AC/AC converters are used to change either the voltage level or the frequency (international power adapters, light
dimmer). In power distribution networks AC/AC converters may be used to exchange power between utility
frequency 50 Hz and 60 Hz power grids.
DC/AC converters (inverters) are used primarily in UPS or renewable energy systems or emergency lighting systems.
When mains power is available, it will charge the DC battery. If the mains fails, an inverter will be used to produce
AC electricity at mains voltage from the DC battery.
Power electronics is the application of electronics for the control and conversion of electric power. Applications of power
electronics range in size from a switched mode power supply in an AC adapter, battery chargers, fluorescent
lamp ballasts, through variable frequency drives and DC motor drives used to operate pumps, fans, and manufacturing
machinery, up to gigawatt-scale high voltage direct current power transmission systems used to interconnect electrical
grids.
Motor drives are found in pumps, blowers, and mill drives for textile, paper, cement and other such facilities. Drives may
be used for power conversion and for motion control.For AC motors, applications include variable-frequency
drives, motor soft starters and excitation systems.
In hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), power electronics are used in two formats: series hybrid and parallel hybrid. The
difference between a series hybrid and a parallel hybrid is the location of the electric motor in comparison to the internal
combustion engine (ICE). The power electronic devices used in electric vehicles consist mostly of dc/dc converters for
battery charging, and dc/ac converters to power the propulsion motor. Electric trains are a big movement in public
transportation, especially in rural areas. These trains use power electronic devices to obtain power, as well as for vector
control using pulse width modulation (PWM) rectifiers. These devices are used, since the trains obtain their power from
the lines they transport along. Another new usage for power electronics is in elevator systems. These systems may use
thyristors, inverters, permanent magnet motors, or various hybrid systems that incorporate PWM systems and standard
motors.The uses of power electronics discussed above are just some examples of the use of power electronics in
residential and public applications.

"Smart Grid"
The Smart Grid is a concept in which renewable energy systems are integrated into the existing power grid. Power
electronics are used to convert power generated by distributed energy systems into usable power for the grid.
Electric power can be generated by wind turbines and hydroelectric turbines by using induction generators. Unfortunately,
the wind and water flows may not be fully controlled and can cause variances in the frequency at which the power is
generated. Power electronic devices are utilized in these systems to convert the generated ac voltages into high-voltage
direct current (HVDC). The HVDC power can be more easily converted into three phase power that is coherent with the
power associated to the existing power grid. Through these devices, the power delivered by these systems is cleaner and
has a higher power factor associated to them. In many wind power systems, the optimum torque on the generator is
obtained through a gearbox. On the other hand, some systems use direct drive technologies which reduce the size of the
power electronic device and remove the gearbox from the system.
Electric power can be generated through photovoltaic cells by using power electronic devices. The produced power is
usually then transformed by inverters. Inverters are divided into three different converter types: central converters,
module-integrated converters, and string converters. Central converters can be connected either in parallel or in series on
the DC side of the system. For photovoltaic farms, only one central converter is used for the entire system. Moduleintegrated converters are connected in series on the DC side of the system, and in series on the AC side. There are
normally several modules within the photovoltaic system, since the system requires these converters on both the DC and
the AC terminals. A string converter is used in a system that utilizes photovoltaic cells that are facing different directions.
It is used to convert the power generated to each string, or line, in which the photovoltaic cells are interacting.
Batteries
Batteries have three parts, an anode (-), a cathode (+), and the electrolyte. The cathode and anode (the positive and
negative sides at either end of a traditional battery) are hooked up to an electrical circuit. The chemical reactions in
the battery cause a buildup of electrons at the anode.
