- Description
- This paper proposes a passive auxiliary circuit which can be added to an interphase transformer (PAC + IPT) configuration to reduce the total harmonic distortion (THD) existing in 12-pulse diode rectifier converter systems at AC mains. The proposed PAC + IPT compensation method is a simple structure, with low power consumption and requires no extra DC power supply. We present the theoretical analysis of the proposed topology that lessens the total harmonic distortion (THD) and evaluate the dynamic simulation results on a 12-pulse converter system and a 3-kW laboratory prototype. Both the simulation and the experimental results show that the proposed PAC + IPT compensation method can improve the power quality and provide a clean power utility interface of AC line input currents for a conventional 12-pulse diode rectifier converter.
