| Summary: | Increasing the power quality is a subject which has received increased attention in recent
years. Power factor correction (PFC) is one of the power quality points which is
receiving greater attention as evidenced by the number of manufacturers which are
manufacturing various types of integrated circuits for power factor correction.
Nonetheless, Power Factor Correction with AC-DC Buck Boost Converter is still
infrequently being used. This project proposes of a development of AC-DC Buck Boost
Power Factor Correction to improve the power factor to the near unity (0.99). For this
project, the two objectives that have been identified are to develop the design of the AC�DC Buck-Boost Power Factor Correction model and to implement the simulation of AC�DC Buck-Boost Power Factor Correction. The Matlab Simulink software is used to do
the design of the circuit experimented; Circuit without any PFC circuit, Circuit with
open-loop PFC circuit and Circuit with closed-loop PFC circuit.. The results conclude
that there is improvement of the power factor using the proposed AC-DC Buck Boost
Power Factor Correction. |
