Conventional Switched Mode Power Supplies(SMPS) with diode-capacitor rectifier have distorted input current waveform with high harmonic contents. Typically, these SMPS have a power factor lower than 0,65. To improve with this problem the power factor correction(PFC) circuit of power supplies has to be introduced. PFC circuit have tendency to be applied in new power supply designs. The input active power factor correction circuits can be implemented using either the two-stage or the single-stage approach. In this paper, the comparative analysis of power factor correction circuit using feedforward control with average current mode single-stage flyback method converter and two-stage converter which is combination of boost and flyback converter. The two prototypes of 50W were designed and tested a laboratory experimental. Also, the comparative analysis is confirmed by simulation and experimental results.

Ac-dc power conversion can either be done with two separate converter stages or with a single converter stage. Two-stage ac-dc converters, however, can be costly and complex, while the performance of single-stage converters is compromised due to a reduced number of components. Several researchers have therefore proposed adding some sort of auxiliary circuit consisting of a second switch and some passive elements to single-stage converters to improve their performance. Although these modified single-stage converters may have two converters, they are not two-stage converters as they do not have two separate and independently controlled converters that are always operating to convert power from one form to another. In this paper, the operation of ac-dc single-stage converters is first reviewed and their strengths and weaknesses are noted. The operation of several modified single-stage converters, including one proposed by the authors, is then discussed, and the paper concludes by presenting experimental results that confirm the feasibility of the proposed converter.

This paper presents a direct single-stage power converter using single-phase isolated full-bridge converter modules, with inherent power factor correction (PFC) for a 12 kW switched mode power supply (SMPS). The advantages of the proposed converter are its simple control strategy, reduction in number of conversion stage, low input line current harmonics, and improvement in power factor. Analysis of the single-stage converter is carried out in continuous conduction mode of operation. Steady-state analysis of the proposed converter is conducted to obtain converter parameters. A systematic design procedure is also presented for a 12k W converter with a design example. The effect of load variation on SMPS is also studied in order to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed converter for the complete range of load conditions. A set of power quality indices on input ac mains for an SMPS fed from a single-stage converter is also presented for easy comparison of their performance.

In this study, a modified ripple correlation control (RCC) maximum-power point-tracking (MPPT) algorithm is proposed for a single-stage single-phase voltage source inverter (VSI) on a grid-connected photovoltaic system (GCPVS). Unlike classic RCC methods, the proposed algorithm does not require high-pass and low-pass filters or the increment of the AC component filter function in the voltage control loop. A simple arithmetic mean function is used to calculate the average value of the photovoltaic (PV) voltage, PV power, and PV voltage ripples for the MPPT of the RCC method. Furthermore, a high-accuracy and high-precision MPPT is achieved. The performance of the proposed algorithm for the single-stage single-phase VSI GCPVS is investigated through simulation and experimental results.

This paper focuses on the single stage and multistage performance characteristics of centrifugal mixed flow submersible borewell pump. This study reveals that the performance of single stage pump is higher than that of multistage pumps. The head, input power and efficiency of single stage pump are higher than the per stage head, per stage input power and efficiency of multistage pumps. This study is divided into three parts. In the first part, five prototype pumps were made in single stage and multistage construction and the performance tests were conducted. In the second part, numerical validation has been done for different turbulence models and grid sizes. k-Omega SST model has been selected for the performance simulation and was validated with the performance of the test pump with static pressure tappings. In the third part, single and three stage pump performance were simulated numerically and compared with experimental results. The detailed analysis of pressure and velocity distributions reveals the difference in performance of single and three stage pump, due to non-uniform flow and difference in averaged flow velocities at the subsequent impeller inlets except the 1st stage impeller inlet.

본 논문은 기존의 2개의 전력 처리단을 갖는 컨버터를 단일 전력단으로 구성하고, ZVS기법을 이용한 고역률 단일전력단 고주파 공진 AC-DC 컨버터를 제안하고 있다. 입력단에 승압형 역률개선 인덕터를 연결하여 일정 듀티비와 가변 스위칭 주파수로 입력전류를 불연속 모드로 제어함으로써 입력 역률을 개선하는 것이 가능하였다. 종래의 2개 전력 처리단을 가지는 컨버터의 경우 역률 제어용 스위치가 별도로 필요하지만 전력 처리단을 하나로 단일화 시키므로써 컨버터의 구성이 간략화 되어져, 비용의 저감과 신뢰성을 증가시킬 수 있는 등의 장점이 있다. 본 연구는 고역률 단일전력단 AC-DC 컨버터의 동작원리와 무차원화 파라미터를 이용한 특성평가를 범용성 있게 행하여, 특성평가에서 산출한 특성값을 기초로 하여 실험장치를 제작하였으며, 실험치와 이론치를 비교ㆍ검토하여 제안 회로의 특성해석의 정당성을 입증하고 있다.

Two-stage power factor correction (PFC) converter with a single PWM controller is proposed. It consists of a power factor pre-regulator cascaded by an isolated DC/DC converter as in a conventional two-stage approach. However, a single PWM controller is used as in a single-stage, single-switch PFC approach. This converter gives the goof power factor correction, low line current harmonic distortions, and tight output voltage regulations. This converter also has a high efficiency by employing an soft switching method. The proposed approach has advantages such as high performance over the single-stage approach and low cost over two-stage approach. The experimental results obtained on a 300W (30V/10A) prototype PFC converter are given to verify the effectiveness of the proposed control method.

This paper presents the single-stage high power factor AC to DC converter operated in active-clamp mode. The proposed converter is added active-clamping circuit to boost-flyback single-stage power factor corrected power supply. The active-clamping circuit limits voltage spikes, recycles the energy trapped in the leakage inductance, and provides a mechanism for achieving soft switching of the electronic switches to reduce the switching loss. The auxiliary switch of active-clamping circuit uses the same control and driver circuit as the main switch to reduce the additional cost and size. To verify the performance of the proposed converter, a 100W converter has been designed. The proposed converter gives good power factor correction, low line current harmonic distortions, and tight output voltage regulation, as used unity power factor.

종래의 충전기 및 통신용 전원장치에 있어서 입력 역률을 개선시키기 위해 고 역률 컨버터(Power Factor Correction Circuit)가 제안되어 적용되고 있고, 이들 대부분 회로는 Hard Switching을 이용한 정류회로로, 입력역률 1제어와 입력전류를 정현파형을 만들 수 있지만 Switching Noise에 의한 전자파장해(EMI)와 스위칭손실 등의 문제를 안고 있다. 또한, 절연된 DC 출력전압을 얻기 위해서는 고 역률 컨버터 후단에 절연된 DC/DC 컨버터가 적용되어야 함으로써, 주 회로 및 제어회로가 다단으로 구성되는 등 복잡화되는 단점이 있었다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 단점을 극복하기 위해 역률보정회로(PFC)를 갖는 절연된 Single Stage 무손실 스너버적용 고주파 소프트 스위칭 컨버터를 제안하고자 한다.
