This paper presents a soft-switching modular three-phase ac voltage regulator which can solve the abnormal voltage problems such as under-voltage, over-voltage, voltage sag and voltage swell. The proposed scheme is the combination of three single-phase modules while each one of the single-phase module is a serial compensation ac voltage regulator. Besides, each one of the single-phase module is composed...
A modular three-phase voltage regulator with a fictitious dc-link is proposed. The proposed scheme is the combination of three single-phase modules while each one of the single-phase module is a three-leg ac voltage regulator. Therefore, the proposed voltage regulator reduces the number of main switches and compensates the voltage of each phase independently. Furthermore, a small film ac capacitor...
A high performance three-phase active power filter is proposed in this paper. A novel circuit for detecting the amplitude of the active part of the fundamental load current is also proposed. The detection time of the current is not more than 1/4 cycle. Its transient response is superior to the other conventional techniques. Moreover, the proposed algorithm avoids the use of mains voltage signal in...
A single-stage power converter for dc uninterruptible power supply (UPS) is proposed in this paper. Basically the proposed converter is an integration result of a power factor correction circuit with a dc-to-dc converter to achieve simple hardware circuit, high efficiency, and low cost for extra UPS function. Under normal operation, a two-switch CUK converter operates as an ac to dc converter with...
This paper presents a soft-switching single-phase three-arm dynamic voltage restorer which aimed at solving voltage disturbances such as voltage swell, voltage sag, over-voltage and under-voltage. The proposed scheme is composed of a three-arm topology which operates as a rectifier and an inverter. Rather than the conventional four-arm topology, the proposed three-arm topology not only reduces the...
A novel single-phase soft-switching AC/AC converter using a simple auxiliary resonant unit and a small AC capacitor is proposed. All main switching devices operate at zero-voltage-switching (ZVS) turn-on, while the auxiliary switches operate at zero-current-switching (ZCS) turn-off. The advantages of this topology are found in efficiency improvement, reduced the voltage stresses, and greatly reduced...
A soft-switching single-phase unified power quality conditioner (UPQC) using simple resonant units is proposed in this paper. In the proposed UPQC, all main switches operate at zero-voltage-switching (ZVS) turn-on and all auxiliary switches operate at zero-current-switching (ZCS) turn-off. The proposed UPQC consists of a soft-switching series active power filter and a soft-switching shunt active power...
A three-leg AC voltage regulator with a fictitious dc-link is proposed. The proposed scheme combines a rectifier with an inverter in a stage. Hence, the proposed voltage regulator not only reduces the number of main switches but also decreases the cost. A small AC capacitor is used, which makes it possible to replace an electrolytic capacitor with a film capacitor, not only the size of the dc link...
