In this paper, direct power control system for three-phase PFC AC/DC converter without the source voltage sensors is proposed. The sinusoidal input current and unity effective power factor are realised based on the estimated flux in the observer. Both active and reactive power calculated using estimated flux. The estimation of flux is performed based on the reduced-order virtual flux observer using the actual currents and the command control voltage. Moreover, source voltage sensors are replaced by a estimated flux. DC output voltage has been compensated by DC output ripple voltage estimation algorithm. The active and reactive powers estimation are performed based on the estimated flux and Phase angle. The proposed algorithm is verified through simulation and experiment.

The operation regions of a three-phase(3Ø) voltage-source(VS) PWM converter are classified in the current vector plane of the synchronous reference frame and their characteristics are explained. In the the power-factor decreasing region, the current control with unity power-factor can not give satisfactory performance to the given load because of the distortion of input current and the ripples and the steady-state errors in DC link voltage. In this paper, the derivation of the optimal current vector is proposed to solve these problems. With this, the input current can be controlled sinusoidally with available maximum power factor and the DC link voltage be the given load, resulting the expansion of the operation region of the 3Ø VS PWM converter. The validity of the proposed control method is proved by the experimental results.

The compound active clamp zero voltage soft switching (CACZVS) three-phase power factor correction (PFC) converter has many advantages, such as high efficiency, high power factor, bi-directional energy flow, and soft switching of all the switches. Triple closed-loop PI controllers are used for the three-phase power factor correction converter. The control objectives of the converter include a fast transient response, high accuracy, and unity power factor. There are six parameters of the controllers that need to be tuned in order to obtain multi-objective optimization. However, six of the parameters are mutually dependent for the objectives. This is beyond the scope of the traditional experience based PI parameters tuning method. In this paper, an improved chaotic particle swarm optimization (CPSO) method has been proposed to optimize the controller parameters. In the proposed method, multi-dimensional chaotic sequences generated by spatiotemporal chaos map are used as initial particles to get a better initial distribution and to avoid local minimums. Pareto optimal solutions are also used to avoid the weight selection difficulty of the multi-objectives. Simulation and experiment results show the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed method.

This paper presents the on -line techniques of SHE-PvVI\I for GTO current source converter. The look-up t table is linearized with this proposed method so that the tum-on/off periods of the GTO switches can be c computed in real-time for any modulation index. This allows the rapid and continuous regulation of the DC O output current while producing the sinusoidal AC input current waveform and unity power factor. The l linearized S}lE-PW~I technique and the high power factor control scheme are Prolxlsed and their‘ performance i is tested analytically. The validity of this proposed technique is well verified through the simulation and e experimental results.

This paper presents a novel single-stage unity power factor converter which features the reduced switching losses by zero-voltage switching and zero-current switching (ZVZCS). Hence the turn-on and turn-off losses of switches are sufficiently reduced. And the reduced conduction losses are achieved by the elimination of one leg of front-end rectifier. And low on-resistance MOSFETs (Synchronous Rectifier) are used in the rectifier at the secondary side of high frequency transformer instead of diodes. Theoretical analysis simulated results of a AC to DC 150W(5V, 30A) converter are presented.
