COURSE OUTLINE :
This course is suitable for UG (B.Tech) and M.Tech studying in Advance Power Electronics. This course describes
modern topics of Power Electronics in terms of switches, topologies and control. More over the proposed course
explains application of Power Electronics in drives, Power Systems and Renewable Energy and other utility. This
application of the Power Electronics including all these fields has been discussed in detail with advanced switching
topology and modern control techniques. Students of B.Tech and M.Tech and participants of industry will find this
course beneficial not only for GATE and other competitive exams, but also help them to upgrade for the fast chang-
ing Power Electronics industry.
ABOUT INSTRUCTOR :
Dr Avik Bhattacharya joined in IIT Roorkee in February 2014. His fields of interest are FACTS, Power Quality, Solid state
transformer, SIC and Gian devices. He has taught Power Electronics in IIT Roorkee for two years. Dr Bhattacharya,
before joining IIT Roorkee, has worked in power electronics industries. His teaching thus has a proper blend of
industry academic orientation.
