| Summary: | An electric power can be converted from one form to another form by using power
electronics devices. The function of power electronics circuits by using semiconductor
devices as switch is modifying or controlling a voltage. The goal of power electronics
circuits are to convert electrical energy from one form to another, from source to load
with highest efficiency, high availability and high reliability with the lowest cost,
smallest size and weight. The term rectification refers to the power circuit whose
function is to alter the ac characteristic of the line electric power to produce a
“rectified”ac power at the load side that contain the dc value In this project, a study has
done for the two types of rectifier topology of alternating current to direct current
voltage of a three-phase boost rectifier with pulse width modulation (PWM) and a threephase
boost
rectifier
with
active
power
filter
(APF).
Power
factor,
shape
distortion
and
voltage
can be increased as much as seen through two types of this topology if it is
connected to the non-linear loads in power systems. Three phase rectifier with pulsewidth
modulation (PWM) is one of controlled rectifier consist six pulses divides into
two groups which are top group and bottom group. For top group, IGBT with its
collector at the highest potential will conduct at one time. The other two will be
reversed. Thus for bottom group, IGBT with the its emitter at the lowest potential will
conduct. This project also observes the current, voltage waveform and the harmonics
component when the active power filter (AFC) placed in series with non-linear load.
Type of rectifier used is uncontrolled rectifier. In this work MATLAB/SIMULINK
power system toolbox is used to simulate the system Results of simulations carried out,
the advantages and disadvantages, the increase in voltage and waveform distortion for
the system under consideration can be shown |
