Harmonic Balance Finite Element Method: Applications in Nonlinear Electromagnetics and Power Systems

The first book applying HBFEM to practical electronic nonlinear field and circuit problems Examines and solves wide aspects of practical electrical and electronic nonlinear field and circuit problems presented by HBFEM Combines the latest research work with essential background knowledge, providing an all-encompassing reference for researchers, power engineers and students of applied electromagnetics analysis There are very few books dealing with the solution of nonlinear electric- power-related problems The contents are based on the authors many years research and industry experience; they approach the subject in a well-designed and logical way It is expected that HBFEM will become a more useful and practical technique over the next 5 years due to the HVDC power system, renewable energy system and Smart Grid, HF magnetic used in DC/DC converter, and Multi-pulse transformer for HVDC power supply HBFEM can provide effective and economic solutions to R&D product development Includes Matlab exercises
