Abstract

This paper proposes a new series-connected diode rectifier which draws sinusoidal input currents. The proposed rectifier system is configured by adding an auxiliary circuit to the conventional 12-pulse series-connected diode rectifier and employing a current injection technique. A low kVA($0.02P_{\circ}$(PU) ) active current source injects a triangular current into the interphase reactor of the diode rectifier. The current injection results in near sinusoidal input current from the utility with less than 1% THD. The resulting system is suitable for high voltage and high power applications. Experimental and simulation results are provided from a 220V, 3kVA prototype rectifier system.
