AC to DC single phase PWM converter for traction application requires rated high power and voltage. Therefor, series or parallel operation converters are necessary with considering the limitation of the power device specification. This paper compares the characteristic between two parallel operation of conventional PWM converter and Single phase three level converter about comparison of power circuit, cooling system control method and harmonic current by computer simulation.

This paper presents an advanced DC droop using both an output current and a grid current. To control parallel-connected converters without communication, the DC droop control is conventionally used. The conventional DC droop control method droops output voltage using an output current. It cannot control the source current causing output voltage errors. This paper proposed the DC droop method using both an output current and a grid current to improve dynamic response of voltage droops. The simulation results with PSIM is provided.

Front end AC to DC converters of the boost type are used in traction applications for generating the DC link for the inverters. A GTO based converter is usually switched with a switching frequency of 300 to 500Hz, resulting in low frequency harmonic problems. In order to avoid this, multiple converters with Phase shifted carrier waveforms are used to suppress the low frequency harmonics. A detailed study of an AC to DC converter, with two converters parallely operated with Phase shifted carrier wave farms is Presented in this paper.

This paper proposed that a AC-DC Converter topology of high power factor with soft switching mode operates with four chopper connecting a number of parallel circuit. To improve these, a large number of soft switching topologies included a resonant circuit have been proposed. And, some simulative results on computer is included to confirm the validity of the analytical results. The partial resonant circuit makes use of a inductor using step up and a condenser of loss-less snubber. The result is that the switching loss is very low and the efficiency of system is high. And the snubber condenser used in partial resonant circuit makes charging engergy regenerated at input power source for resonant operation. The proposed conversion system is deemed the most suitable for high power applications where the power switching devices are used.

In the context of increasing electric energy consumption in a data center, energy efficiency improvement is strongly emphasized. In a data center, electric energy is largely consumed by DC power supply system, which is based on a rectifier composed by multiple parallel converters. Therefore, rectifier efficiency must be improved for minimizing loss of DC power supply system. Rectifier efficiency can be modulated by load allocation to converters because converter efficiency depends on input AC power. In this paper, we propose a new control method to maximize rectifier efficiency. The method can control load allocation to converters by introducing active power converter control scheme and start-and-stop of converters. In order to illustrate optimal load allocations in a rectifier, a maximization problem of rectifier efficiency is formulated as a nonlinear optimization one. The problem is solved by Lagrangian relaxation method and the computation results provide the validity of proposed method.

백열전구를 대체하기위한 친환경 에너지 절약형 7w급 LED 램프의 구동을 위한 전원장치를 설계하였다. LED 램프는 칩 LED를 여러개 직 병렬로 연결하여 사용하게 되므로 적합한 직류 전압과 전류를 공급하여야 한다. 그런데 LED 램프는 상용 AC 220V 전원에 직접 연결해 사용하게 되므로 드라이버에는 전압제어와 전류제어가 포함된 AC/DC, DC/DC 전력변환기가 반드시 필요하게 된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 램프의 LED 열에 따라 출력전압과 전류제어가 가능하며 변압기가 없는 간단한 구조의 LED 램프 드라이버를 설계하였다.

When the electric tractions are stopped or driven through the falling slope way, it occured to surplus energy in the DC power line. At present, these energy are exhausted by breaking-system. The converter is not only capable of feeding energy back into the AC source during excessive regeneration. It is issued for this surplus energy regenerating system. These systems are faced with high voltage and high power for railway DC power regeneration. This paper proposed a parallel PWM converter how to solve these problem.

This paper proposes a novel soft-switching interleaved boost converter composed of two shunted elementary PFC boost conversion units and an auxiliary inductor. This converter is able to turn on both the active power switches at zero voltage to reduce their switching losses and evidently raise the conversion efficiency and power factor. Since the two parallel-operated elementary boost units are identical, operation analysis and design for the converter module becomes quite simple. A laboratory test circuit is built, and the circuit operation shows satisfactory agreement with the theoretical analysis. The performance of the proposed PFC rectifier was evaluated on an experimental 300[W] PFC prototype.

This paper presents a novel non-resonant PWM DC-DC converter for X-ray high-voltage power generator using the parasitic impedances of the high-voltage high-frequency link transformer with its output high-voltage control scheme and steady-state characteristics compared to the conventional series-parallel resonant DC-DC converter. The key point of this approach is to evaluate effectiveness of reduction of the turn ratio of the high-voltage high-frequency transformer on improvements in power conversion efficiency and the power factor applying a boost AC-DC converter as DC voltage source, especially in the long exposure term and light output load ranges.
