Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleFuzzy Inference System Based Power Factor Correction of Three Phase Diode Rectifier Using Field Programable Gate ArraySundar Rajan Giri Thulasiraman, Christober Asir RajanThis study describes a novel method in improving the input current total harmonic distortion as well as power factor of a three-phase diode rectifier circuit. In this method, three bidirectional switches comprising MOSFET and four diodes are used across the three-phase supply and load. In a three-phase rectifier only two diodes conduct at any given time. As a result, the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 9 · 24 Aug 2013 · 6,877 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDesign of a Single-Phase Rectifier with Improved Power Factor and Low THD using Boost Converter TechniqueIsmail Daut, Rosnazri Ali, Soib TaibThe method of using Boost type of converter was proposed for a 300W single-phase rectifier in this paper. By designing the necessary techniques and methodology, the overall Power Factor (PF) and Total Harmonic Distortion would be improved to the expectation. The cause of having low PF and high THD for a diode-capacitor type of rectifiers is related to non-linearity of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2006 · 7,127 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleControl Strategy for Discontinuous Conduction Mode Boost Rectifier with Low Total Harmonic Distortion and Improved Dynamic ResponseH.S. AthabDue to its simplicity, the discontinuous conduction mode boost rectifier is potentially the least expensive active line-harmonics reducing circuit. Problem statement: The line current however, shows considerable distortion when the peak input voltage is close to the output voltage, As a result, the input power factor is poor. This study proposes a simple, low-cost method to reduce the line harmonics. … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,418 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSTUDY OF THE POSSIBILITY OF POLYTYPE 3C SILICON CARBIDE BULK CRYSTALS GROWING FOR USE IN POWER DEVICESLebedev Alexander Alexandrovich, Bulat Pavel ViktorovichDue to its electro-physical parameters, the silicon carbide is a promising material for power devices, including the microwave range. In recent years there has been considerable progress in the development of power devices, based on SiC. Serious problem, which hinders the widespread commercialization of SiC bipolar power devices, is the p-n structures degradation during high densities of passing forward current. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 10 · 5 Dec 2014 · 6,348 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHARMONICS REDUCTION IN FRONT END RECTIFER OF UNINTERRUPTIBLE POWER SUPPLIES WITH ACTIVE CURRENT INJECTIONT. Chandrasekar, B. Justus Rabi, A. KannanHarmonics are the by-products of modern electronics devices so it is necessary to mitigate the harmonics and offer techniques to mitigation of harmonics. It is greatly hampered by a three phase rectifier used as a front-end ac-to-dc converter in many systems. High power factor is achieved by injecting high-frequency currents into the three-phase rectifier. This study presents the high power … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 1 Feb 2014 · 6,803 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign and Implementation of Closed Loop LCL-T Resonant DC-to-DC Converter Using Low Cost Embedded ControllerM. Annamalai, M. Vijaya KumarThe aim of this study is to simulate and implement open loop and closed loop controlled DC-DC converter for stand-alone wind energy system. Wind turbines, however, are not always very efficient in the wind speeds that are most common to a region. Typically, wind energy systems are designed to be highly efficient in high wind speed and have a cut-off … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 6 Feb 2013 · 7,589 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSimulation and Implementation of Quasi Resonant DC-DC ConverterP. Parvathy, N. DevarajanProblem statement: A half-bridge LLC resonant converter with a voltage doubler rectifier has a simple structure and its Zero-Voltage-Switching (ZVS) capability is excellent from zero to full load condition. But conduction loss is more due to high circulating energy thus reducing the system efficiency. Moreover a variable frequency control method makes the control circuits more complicated than those using the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 10 · 29 Aug 2012 · 7,142 accessesView PDFCite
