A high-frequency asymmetrical PWM control technique is proposed which can improve the input power factor of ac chopper and also suppress its harmonic contents of currents at both its input and load sides and the acoustic noises by its switching semiconductor devices. The ideal switching function for the proposed technique is derived and hence converted into asymmetrical PWM pattern for practical implementation of ac voltage regulator. Also the various power circuits of three phase AC choppers are suggested. The theoretical characteristics of the proposed PWM technique are investigated by digital simulation.

Recently international regulations governing the amount of harmonic currents(e.g IEC 61000-3-2) became mandatory and active Power factor correction (PFC) pre-regulator circuit became inevitable for the AC/DC converters. Among these topologies, the boost topology represents an optimum solution for a PFC pre-regulation in a high power application. This paper propose improved ZVT(Zero Voltage Transition) AC/DC PFC Boost using the average current control employing a soft-switching technique of the auxiliary switch with a minimum number of components. The conventional ZVT PFC Boost Converter has a disadvantage that the auxiliary switch turns off hard, which influences the overall efficiency and the EMI problem. In this paper, an improved ZVT PFC Boost converter using active snubber is proposed to minimize the switching loss of the auxiliary. The prototype of 100kHz, 640W system was implemented to show the improved performance.

This paper presents an IHQRR (Integrated High Quality Rectifier Regulator) BIFRED (Boost Integrated Flyback Rectifier Energy Storage DC-DC) converter fed BLDC (Brushless DC) motor drive. A reduced sensor topology is derived by utilizing a BIFRED converter to operate in a dual DCM (Discontinuous Conduction Mode) thus utilizing a voltage follower approach for the PFC (Power Factor Correction) and voltage control. A new approach for speed control is proposed using a single voltage sensor. The speed of the BLDC motor drive is controlled by varying the DC link voltage of the front end converter. Moreover, fundamental frequency switching of the VSI's (Voltage Source Inverter) switches is used for the electronic commutation of the BLDC motor which reduces the switching losses in the VSI. The proposed drive is designed for a wide range of speed control with an improved power quality at the AC mains which falls within the recommended limits imposed by international power quality standards such as IEC 61000-3-2.

This paper deals with a stand-alone wind energy conversion system (WECS) with an isolated asynchronous generator (IAG) and voltage and frequency (VF) control feeding three-phase four-wire loads. The reference generator currents are estimated using the instantaneous symmetrical component theory to control the voltage and frequency of an IAG system. A three-leg voltage source converter (VSC) with an isolated star/delta transformer is used as an integrated VSC. An integrated VSC with a battery energy storage system (BESS) is used to control the active and reactive powers of the WECS. The WECS is modeled and simulated in MATLAB using the Simulink and the Sim Power System (SPS) toolboxes. The proposed VF controller functions as a voltage and frequency regulator, a load leveler, a load balancer and a harmonic eliminator in the WECS. A comparison is made on the rating of the VSC with and without ac capacitors connected at the terminals of an IAG. Simulation and test results are presented to verify the control algorithm.

This paper presents the on-line current controller tuning method of grid-connected inverter using PSO(particle swarm optimization) technique for minimizing the harmonic current. Synchronous frame PI current regulator is commonly used in most distributed generation. However, due to the source voltage distortion, specially in weak AC power system, current may contain large harmonic components, which increase THD(total harmonic distortion) and deteriorates power quality. Therefore, some tuning method is necessary to improve response of current controller. This paper used the PSO technique to tune the current regulator and through simulation and experiments, usefulness of the tuning method has been verified. Especially in simulating the tuning process, ASM(average switching model) of inverter is used to shorten execution time.

There are generally two temperature control methods using ac voltage regulators - the phase control method and the on-off control method. The phase control method uses thyristor's angles of extinction for the output power regulation and the on-off control method uses the control of on and off times for the output power regulation. Both of methods have the problems that are the unbalance of the three phase and surge current caused system's destruction. The main object of this study proposes a solution of problems of surge currents and unbalance of three phase when thyristor voltage regulator is switching. To solve the problem, It is proposes that the solution of surge currents is using a tap transformer and an additional switch with adjustable resistance and applies zero crossing of switching voltage of two input line to power load. This method is discuss and verified by computer simulations and experiments.

The electrical parameters are used to calculate gains in the current regulator as well as to determine the reference currents of speed controller in various control strategies of Synchronous Reluctance Motors (SynRMs). Many methods of measuring or estimating the electrical parameters of SynRM have been proposed by other authors. But almost papers only measure or estimate in the limited conditions without fully considering the effects of inverter, connecting wire and magnetic saturation. The parameter results are usually different from the real system parameters. The drive performance, therefore, can not be good if using inaccurate parameters. In this paper, several methods used to measure the electrical parameters are introduced. The first method is LCR meter. And then, a method determining inductances by measuring AC current and voltage from AC power supply is presented. A new method with high reliability is proposed to measure the electrical parameters of SynRM. The experiment results verify the effectiveness of the new proposed method.
