Near Unity Input Displacement Factor for Current Source PWM Drives

Abstract

In highpower/medium voltage(2300V-6900V) ac drives a PWM CSI is often used to control the speed of the motor, and the front-end rectifier is a 6 or 12 pulse thyristor rectifier (pictured on this page). Interfacing with ac mains requires low input current harmonics (to comply with recommendations such as IEEE-519), high input power factor, and good voltage/current regulation. Therefore, the thyristor rectifier must be either combined with …
