A Single-Phase High Power Factor Rectifier,
Based on a Two-Quadrant Shunt Active Filter



Abstract

This paper presents a new technique to improve the
input power factor of a single-phase rectifier followed by an
inductive filter. It consists in the employment of a two-quadrant
active power filter, based on a conventional bidirectional DC-DC
converter, connected to the output side of the diode bridge. This
technique allows the extension of this rectifier range operation in
the continuous conduction ....etc

Abstract
This work describes a novel method in improving the
input current total harmonic distortion (THD) as well as the power
factor of a three-phase suppressed-link rectifier-inverter circuit.
This proposed method makes use of only three bi-directional low
power static switches with a relatively simple gating circuit. This
paper illustrates how the proposed method is superior in reducing
the input current THD of a rectifier-inverter set to about 5%,
which is in line with the requirements of IEEE standard 519–1992.
This is a ....etc

An Integrated Silicon Carbide (SiC) Based Single Phase Rectifier with Power Factor Correction



I. INTRODUCTION
Power supplies are one of the most crucial building
blocks of a modern society, converting high-voltage AC
into low-voltage DC for use in electronic circuitry in office
equipment, telecommunication, and consumer electronics.
Over 2.5 billion AC/DC power supplies are currently in use
in the United States alone, about 6 to 10 billion are in use

Abstract
An active current injection network for a three-phaserectifier is proposed. The proposed circuit uses three bidirectionalswitches operating at low frequency and a half-bridge inverteroperating at high frequency. It also uses an inductor in orderto make the current modulation. Because only 3.7% of the totalpower delivered to the load is processed by the injection network,the proposed converter offers high efficiency, and not only a highpower factor is obtained but also the total harmonic distortion isreduced. Operation, analysi ....etc

3-Phase Power Factor Correction, Using Vienna Rectifier Approach and Modular Construction for Improved Overall Performance, Efficiency and Reliability
1.0 Abstract:
While applications for 1-Phase PFC are now familiar and prevalent, the same is not the
case with 3-Phase PFC. Many equipments using kilowatts of power from 3-Phase mains
should be candidates of 3-Phase power factor correction, because several advantages
ensue, both to the user of the equipment and to the utility. The Vienna Rectifier approach
to achieve 3-Phase ....etc

INTRODUCTION
Efficient control of D.C motor speed is very economical to any industries for that reason we are using full wave rectifier in which we are using triacs as switches because of bi-directional nature of triacs we are preferred instead of using thyrister as a switches. To obtain a four quadrant operation we need 8 switches if we use thyristers (this circuit called dual converter) and if we use triacs we need 4 switches only.
