An Overview of Control Strategies of an APFC Single Phase Front End Converter
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 4
Abstract
Increase in the use of power electronic equipment has resulted in greater need for regulating the harmonic distortion level in the power system. This is satisfied using some form of power factor correction (PFC) circuits to shape the input currents so that they are sinusoidal in nature and total harmonic distortion (THD) remains within the limit specified by 1EEE standard 519. This paper provides a review of the most commonly used active power factor correction (APFC) technique, boost type PWM rectifier for AC-DC converters and their control strategies. Simulation of the converter using APFC circuit is done and the results are analyzed.
