Abstract

Nowadays AC-DC converter is mostly used for finding dc links in various applications. In any dc system, the prime concern is voltage/current ripples, it could truly affect the system execution on both the input and output sides. In this research a single-phase IGBTs (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistors) based PWM (Pulse width modulated) boost rectifier is simulated. This rectifier circuit is simulated by using IGBT because it is having a high switching speed. It can boost DC output voltage and unity power factor at sinusoidal input with small THD (Total Harmonic Distortion). Generally, the PWM rectifier suffers from pulsating ripple power at double the supply frequency. This unwanted power can be filtered out by selecting a large value of capacitor or an LC branch. To compensate for ripple energy in this system a Proportional Integral controller (PI controller) is proposed. PI controller is used to reducing the output voltage fluctuation and total harmonic distortion of input current. PSIM software is used to design this simulation. Simulation results validate that the projected scheme is effective to minimize the input current harmonic distortion significantly.
