This paper proposes a harmonics reduction technique for the input currents of three phase PWM converters. The quality of the phase angle information on the utility voltage connected to the PWM converters affects their control performance. Under a distorted utility voltage, the extracted phase angle based on the synchronous reference frame PLL method is distorted. This causes large harmonics in the input currents of a PWM converter. In this paper, a harmonics reduction method that makes the input currents in the PWM converter sinusoidal even under distorted utility conditions is proposed. By the proposed method, without additional hardware, the THD (Total Harmonic Distortion) of the input currents can be readily limited to below 5% which is the harmonic current requirements of IEEE std. 519. Its validity is verified by simulations and experimental results.

In this paper, we propose a three-phase soft-switching PWM-PFC converter and describe the circuit operations and the experimental results. The proposed converter is constructed by using a resonant network in parallel with the main switch of the conventional PWM converter. A new PWM-PFC converter achieves including the auxiliary switches without increasing their voltage and current stress.

This paper presents a novel three-phase current-fed Pulse Width Modulation converter with switched capacitor type resonant DC link commutation circuit operating PWM pattern strategy under a design consideration of low-pass filter, which can operate on the basis of the principle of zero current soft switching commutation. In the first place, the steady state operating principle of this converter with a new resonant DC link snubber circuit is described in connection with the equivalent operation circuit, together with the practical design procedure of the switched-capacitor type resonant DC link circuit is discussed from a theoretical viewpoint on the basis of a design example for high-power applications. The actively delayed time correction method to compensate distorted currents due to a relatively long resonant commutation time is newly implemented in the open loop control scheme so as to acquire the new optimum PWM pattern. Finally, the experiment of set-up in laboratory system of this converter is concretely demonstrated herein to confirm a zero current soft-switching commutation of this converter. The comparative evaluations between current-fed hard switching PWM and soft-switching PWM converters are carried out from a viewpoint of their PWM converter characteristics.

본 연구에서는 단상 PWM 컨버터와 3상 PWM 전압형 인버터 유도전동기 운전으로 나누 어져 있다. 단상 시스템의 교류 전원의 주파수에는 순시전력의 맥동성분을 가진다. 컨버터의 직류 맥동전압은 맥동성분을 발생시킨다. 결과적으로 인버터의 출력전압과 전류의 파형은 왜곡된다 시스템의 정상상태는 상태공간법으로 해석된다. 이러한 모든 사항은 시뮬레이션과 실험을 통하여 그 타당성을 확인하였다.

This work deals with a switching method for minimizing overcurrent in a three-phase interleaved bidirectional DC-DC converter with frequency modulation. Generally, a three-phase interleaved DC-DC converter is used to reduce a current ripple component. The combined operation of three-phase and two-phase converters can significantly reduce the ripple component. However, the conventional PWM method cannot solve severe overcurrent during phase transfer or frequency variation for power control. To overcome this problem, this work proposes a new PWM switching method. A 3 kW DC-DC power converter is designed and implemented, and the converter is operated in discontinuous current mode with varying switching frequencies for power control. Simulation and experimental results show the validity of the proposed switching method. The proposed switching method can be widely used in the field of current ripple reduction for three-phase interleaved bidirectional DC-DC converters.

본 논문에서는 단일 스위치 3상 승압형 컨버터 입력전류의 왜형을 개선하기 위한 6고조파 주입 PWM 방식이 제안디었다. 주기적인 6고조파 전압이 한 스위칭 사이클 내에 컨버터 스위치의 듀비티를 가변하도록 제어회로에 주입되었다. 그 결과 입력 상전류는 입력전압을 따라가고 거의 1에 가까운 역률을 얻었다. 실험결과는 3상 입력 AC 140∼220V, 400V∼6kW 저항부하와 3상 AC 220V, 비선형 부하인 CO2 아크 용접기에 의하여 입증하였다.
