| Summary: | A single switch rectifier was developed in this thesis, which has continuous input and
output currents. The design and implementation of a single switch three-phase multi
resonant rectifier delivering 147 Vdc at 2.2 kW output has been carried out. By the
use of a multi resonant scheme, the IGBT operates with zero current switching and
the diode operates with zero voltage switching.
This multi-resonant rectifier with a single transistor is capable of drawing a higher
quality input current waveform, good power factor and low stresses on the
semiconductor devices. Buck type converter was used for the power stage, and
hence the output voltage is lower than the input voltage. Moreover, these rectifiers
have a wide load range with low stress on semiconductor devices. Simulation and
experimental results are presented. The total harmonic distortion (THD) of the line current is less than 5% and the system efficiency is about 90% at 25% of
maximum load.
The single switch rectifier using multi resonant zero current switching has been
simulated using OrCad release 9.1 software for 25% of maximum load. A good
agreement between simulation and experimental results has been achieved. |
