A New Unity Power Factor Rectifier System using an Active Waveshaping Technique
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper proposes a new three-phase diode rectifier system with a sinusoidal input current at unity power factor and a regulated and isolated output voltage at low level. The inherent natural wave-shaping capability of the reduced kVA polyphase transformer together with an active current wave-shaping technique results in a significant reduction of input and output filter requirements associated with switching ripple and EMI. The operation principles are described along with a design example and a comparative evaluation. Experimental results on a 1.5kW prototype are provided to validate the proposed concept.

متن کاملA Single-Phase Controlled Rectifier with Unity Power Factor
An approach recently introduced to correct the power factor of single-phase and three-phase diode rectifiers is extended to single-phase line-frequency phase-controlled rectifiers. First of all, the conventional circuit of the thyristor based rectifier is proposed to be modified in order to make possible the control of the DC-voltage mean value also in presence of a fully resistive behaviour of...
