Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The frequency conversion drive technology of AC motors and converters is a common key technology in high-end manufacturing industries, such as intelligent manufacturing equipment, aerospace equipment, ship and ocean engineering equipment, and advanced rail transit equipment. Frequency conversion drive technology has been further applied in emerging fields, such as wind power generation systems and high-end energy equipment, playing an important role in promoting the development of green energy. However, variable frequency drive technology and its application in complex scenarios face a series of challenges, such as equipment upsizing, energy efficiency issues, system stability issues and control complications, which deeply affect industrial upgrading and energy transformation strategies.

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems and challenges, it is necessary to further study advanced control technologies—such as grid converter control, model predictive control and field weakening control—and explore more efficient power electronic converter and generator design technologies.

In summary, the frequency conversion drive technology of AC motors and converters has broad application prospects and great research value. Thus, this Special Issue aims to promote the progress and development of technology in this field and will cover the following areas:

  1. Fault crossing active support technology for wind power systems.
  2. Power electronic converter and system modelling, stability and control technology.
  3. Stability analysis and control technology of wind power grid connection.
  4. Grid connected converter control.
  5. AC motor speed/position sensorless control technology.
  6. Power electronic converter and system modeling, stability and control technology.
  7. New topology of AC motors.
  8. Wind power generation system based on doubly fed motors.
  9. Control of offshore wind power generation systems.
  10. Innovative theories and key technologies that intersect with the above fields.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Electronics is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
