课程简介：电力电子（Power Electronics）这一名称是在上世纪60年代出现的，它是由电子学、电力学和控制理论三个学科交叉而形成的。电力电子利用半导体电子器件实现电能变换，有时也称为功率电子技术，目前在社会生产与生活中有着广泛的应用。例如，将交流电能变换成直流电能或将直流电能变换成交流电能；将工频电源变换为设备所需频率的电源；在正常交流电源中断时，用逆变器（见电力变流器）将蓄电池的直流电能变换成工频交流电能。应用电力电子技术还能实现非电能与电能之间的转换。例如，利用太阳电池将太阳辐射能转换成电能。与信息电子技术不同，电力电子技术变换的电能是作为能源而不是作为信息传感的载体。《电力电子》是电气工程专业必修的学科专业课，是应用于电力领域的电子技术，主要研究如何使用电力电子器件对电能进行变换和控制。本课程主要讲授电力电子的应用，基本功率半导体器件的特性，不同应用场景中的电能转换电路，使学生了解并掌握该领域的基本原理和电路分析方法。本门课程教学目标的设立综合考虑了国家战略，学科内容，与学校定位。从国家层面看，课程需要服务国家“双碳”战略，培养新一代“电气”人，引导其建立专业归属感与民族自豪感。从学科层面，电力电子是电气工程一级学科下五大二级学科之一，期望培养学生具备以下能力：1）了解电力电子应用场景；2）理解基本功率器件的特性；3）掌握该领域的原理和分析方法；4）熟悉不同应用中的电能转换电路。从学校层面看，本校强调“小规模、高水平、国际化”的办学风格，鼓励采取小班教学，通过学科交叉融合，培养一批科研能力强的高水平复合型人才。

Course introduction: The increasing focus on electrification for a cleaner environment has fueled the need for electric power in different forms. Power electronics is the branch of electrical engineering that deals with the processing of high voltages and currents to deliver power that supports a variety of needs. From household electronics to equipment in space applications, these areas all need stable and reliable electric power with the desired specifications. Power supply in one form is processed using power semiconductor switches and control mechanisms to another form, supplying a regulated and controlled power. While switched-mode power supplies are a common application of power electronics where power density, reliability, and efficiency are of prime importance, motor control is gearing up with more electrification in transportation systems. Precise control and efficiency are key characteristics for power control applications. The study of power electronics is thus multidisciplinary, involving semiconductor physics, electrical motors, mechanical actuators, electromagnetic devices, control systems, and so on. This course mainly focuses on the basic application of power electronics, the characteristics of basic power semiconductor devices, and the power conversion circuits in different application scenarios.
