The associated power levels range from milliwatts to megawatts. Modeling and simulation are essential ingredients of the analysis and design process in power electronics. They help a design engineer gain an increased understanding of circuit operation. With this knowledge the designer can, for a given set of specifications, choose a topology, select appropriate circuit component types and values, estimate circuit performance, and complete the design by ensuring that the circuit performance will meet specifications even with the anticipated variations in operating conditions and circuit component values. Power electronic systems are nonlinear variable structure systems. They involve passive components such as resistors, capacitors, and inductors, semiconductor switches such as thyristors and MOSFETs, and circuits for control. The analysis and design of such systems present significant challenges. Fortunately, increased availability of powerful computer and simulation programs makes the analysis/design process much easier. PSIM® is an electronic circuit simulation software package, designed specifically for use in power electronics and motor drive simulations but can be used to simulate any electronic circuit. With fast simulation speed and user-friendly interface, PSIM provides a powerful simulation environment to meet the user simulation and development needs. This book shows how to simulate the power electronic converter circuits in PSIM environment. The prerequisite for this book is a first course on power electronics. This book is composed of eight chapters. Chapter 1 is an introduction to PSIM. This chapter introduces the different parts of PSIM environment. Chapter 2 shows the fundamentals of circuit simulation with PSIM. You will learn how to draw the circuit schematic, connect the components together, run the simulation, measure what you want, and many other important tasks in this chapter. Chapter 3 introduces Simview™. Simview is PSIM’s waveform display and post-processing program. This chapter studies the most important measurements that can be done with Simview. Chapter 4 introduces the most commonly used components of PSIM. Chapter 5 shows how PSIM can be used for analysis of power electronic circuits. Many examples are studied in this chapter. The studied examples are selected among the most fundamental circuits of power electronics. All the details are shown, so you can follow the examples easily. Chapter 6 shows how you can simulate motors and mechanical loads in PSIM. Chapter 7 introduces SimCoupler™. SimCoupler fuses PSIM with Simulink® by providing an interface for co-simulation. With the aid of SimCoupler, you have access to all of the Simulink blocks in your simulation. Chapter 8 introduces the SmartCtrl®. SmartCtrl is a controller design software specifically geared toward power electronic applications. It features a user-friendly interface, a simple workflow, and a comprehensible display of control loop stability and performance. SmartCtrl facilitates the simple and fast designing of controllers for various power converters. In this chapter, the controller design process is shown for a buck converter. We want to acknowledge the Powersim Inc. for providing access to PSIM during the writing of this book. We hope that this book will be useful to readers, and we welcome comments on the book.
