A digital current control scheme using virtual d-q transformation for a boost single-phase power factor correction (PFC) converter is proposed. The use of virtual d-q transformation in single-phase power converters is known to improve current control performance. However, the conventional virtual d-q transformation-based digital current control scheme cannot be directly applied to the boost single-phase PFC converter because the current and average voltage waveforms of the inductor used in the converter are not sinusoidal. To cope with this problem, this study proposes a virtual sinusoidal signal generation method that converts the current and average voltage waveform of the inductor into a sinusoidal waveform synchronized with the grid. Simulation and experimental results are provided to show that the virtual d-q transformation-based digital current control is successfully applied to the boost single-phase PFC converter with the aid of the proposed virtual sinusoidal signal generation method.

An interleaved boost converter has many advantages such as current ripple reduction, switching effective double, etc. Due to these advantages, the interleaved boost converter applies to the power factor correction circuit. However, there are almost no analysis results because the input voltage and current are time-varying system in the power factor correction application. Therefore, in this paper, the current ripples of the power factor correction circuit using single-phase boost dc-dc converter and 2-phase interleaved boost dc-dc converter are compared and analyzed in detail. In order to verify the validity, computer simulation and experimental are performed.

This study proposes a high-performance current control algorithm for a diode-bridge-type single-phase boost power factor correction (PFC) converter. The conventional asynchronous single-phase current controllers that directly control AC-type current tend to be accompanied by steady-state errors due to their poor dynamic characteristics for the transient-state, which can be attributed to bandwidth limitations and phase delays. In the proposed algorithm, an ideal current control with minimal phase delays and steady-state errors can be achieved by using a virtual DQ synchronous reference frame and by controlling the synchronous reference frame excluding the frequency component in the single-phase system. The performance of the conventional asynchronous single-phase current controller is compared with that of the proposed algorithm through simulation and experiments, and the results have confirmed the superiority of the latter.

본 논문에서는 대기압 플라즈마 발생용 정현파펄스형 교류 전원 장치에 대한 연구를 진행하였다. 정현파펄스형 전원장치는 기존의 LC공진을 이용한 교류 전원장치보다 높은 dv/dt를 갖게 되므로 안정적인 플라즈마 공급이 가능하며 펄스형에 비해 고조파 노이즈가 적고, 정전류 턴온-영전압 턴오프 형태로 동작하므로 매우 높은 효율을 갖는다. 또한 플라즈마 점화 기능을 강화하고 안정적인 전압제어를 위해 3상 부스트형 컨버터를 입력단에 사용하여 입력 역률이 매우 높은 시스템을 구성할 수 있다. 실험실 수준의 10kW부하시설을 사용하여 본 연구의 결과를 입증하였다.

DC electrolytic capacitor is widely used in the power converter including PWM inverter, switching power supply and PFC Boost converter system because of its large capacitance, small size and low cost. In this paper, basic characteristics of DC electrolytic capacitor vs. frequency is presented and the real-time estimation scheme of ESR and capacitance based on the bandpass filtering is adopted to the single phase boost converter of uninterruptible power supply to diagnose its split dc-link capacitors. The feasibility of this real-time failure prediction monitoring system is verified by the computer simulation of the 5[kW] singe phase PFC half-bridge boost converter.

본 논문에서는 임계전류도통모드로 동작하는 디지털제어 단상 역률개선(PFC; power-factor correction) 컨버터를 제안한다. 제안한 컨버터는 PFC를 위하여 DC-DC 부스트 컨버터 구조를 이용하며 인덕터전류를 임계도통모드로 동작시킨다. 또한 제안한 컨버터는 마이컴을 이용하여 디지털적으로 제어되기 때문에 제어회로는 간단해지고 컨버터는 더욱 효과적으로 동작한다. 본 논문에서는 먼저 제안한 컨버터의 동작원리를 설명하고 회로를 해석한다. 그리고 본 논문은 제안한 컨버터의 구현방법을 소프트웨어와 회로설계 부분으로 구분하여 구체적인 설계예와 함께 설명한다. 또한 설계된 회로파라미터에 의한 프로토타입 컨버터의 실험결과로 제안한 컨버터가 단상 PFC 컨버터로써 좋은 동작 특성을 가지고 있음을 보인다.

This paper proposes a new DC link voltage controller for a single-phase power factor correction (PFC) boost converter. The load current of the PFC boost converter affects the capacitor current, whereas the load current changes the output voltage. However, previous works that compensate output current have failed to consider the relationship between load current and duty. Thus, they also fail to maintain a constant output voltage if the load fluctuates under the conditions of a non-rated input voltage. By considering the duty in the load current compensation, the proposed method improves the load transient response regardless of the input voltage. To demonstrate its effectiveness, the proposed method is compared with other control methods by conducting PSM simulations and experiments under a rapidly changing load.

A highly efficient single-phase/three-phase compatible ac-to-dc converter is proposed and analyzed, which includes three identical single-phase both soft-switched dc-to-dc converter with boost converter as a pre-regulator for input power factor correction (PFC). The proposed converter structure provides a cost reduction and easy implementation of compatibility between single-phase 220V and three-phase 220V/380V with their inputs in delta or wye connections.

The design and performance analysis of a power factor corrected (PFC), single-phase, single switch flyback buck-boost ac-dc converter is carried out for low power battery charging applications. The proposed configuration of the flyback buck-boost ac-dc converter consists of only one switch and operates in discontinuous current mode (DCM), resulting in simplicity in design and manufacturing and reduction in input current total harmonic distortion (THD). The design procedure of the flyback buck-boost ac-dc converter is presented for the battery charging application. To verify and investigate the design and performance, a simulation study of the flyback buck-boost converter in DCM is performed using the PSIM6.0 platform. A laboratory prototype of the proposed single switch flyback buck-boost ac-dc converter is developed and test results are presented to validate the design and developed model of the system.

In this study, a novel single phase soft switched power factor correction (PFC) converter is developed with active snubber cell. The active snubber cell provides boost switch both to turn on with zero voltage transition (ZVT) and to turn off with zero current transition (ZCT). As the switching losses in the proposed converter are too low, L and C size can be reduced by increasing the operating frequency. Also, all the semiconductor devices operate with soft switching. There is no additional voltage stress in the boost switch and diode. The proposed converter has a simple structure, low cost and ease of control as well. It has a simple control loop to achieve near unity power factor with the aid of the UC3854. In this study, detailed steady state analysis of the proposed converter is presented and this theoretical analysis is verified by a prototype of 100 kHz and 500 W converter. The measured power factor and efficiency are 0.99 and 97.9% at full load.
