Most of converter system could obtain almost unity power factor and make input current sinusoidal waveform, but they have many problems, such as electromagnetic interference and switching losses caused by switching noise in main switch. To solve these problems in hard switching PFC converter, soft switching converter using a resonant between capacitor and inductor is invented In this paper, advantages and disadvantages of conventional ZVT(Zero-Voltage-Transition) soft switching converter using a auxiliary resonant circuit is discussed. Then Improved ZVT soft switching converter proposed. This improved ZVT converter's operation principal, specific property, design scheme of main are described. From Simulation and experiment results of conventional ZVT soft switching and improved ZVT soft switching converter with active snubber, characteristics of the converter are confirmed.

This paper proposed that an Analysis of a partial resonant AC-DC converter for high power and power factor operates with four choppers connecting to a number of parallel circuit. To improve these, a large number of soft switching topologies included a resonant circuit have been proposed. And, some simulative results on computer are included to confirm the validity of the analytical results. The partial resonant circuit makes use of an inductor using step-down and a condenser of lose-less snubber. The result is that the switching loss is very low and the efficiency of system is high. And the snubber condenser used in a partial resonant circuit makes charging energy regenerated at input power source for resonant operation. The proposed conversion system is deemed the most suitable for high power applications where the power switching devices are used

This paper presents a novel non-resonant PWM DC-DC converter for X-ray high-voltage power generator using the parasitic impedances of the high-voltage high-frequency link transformer with its output high-voltage control scheme and steady-state characteristics compared to the conventional series-parallel resonant DC-DC converter. The key point of this approach is to evaluate effectiveness of reduction of the turn ratio of the high-voltage high-frequency transformer on improvements in power conversion efficiency and the power factor applying a boost AC-DC converter as DC voltage source, especially in the long exposure term and light output load ranges.

This paper proposes a three-phase single-stage AC-DC converter for the small wind generation system. Input power factor improvement and insulated output can be implemented with the proposed three-phase single-stage AC-DC converter under the wide power generation voltage (80-260 V_ac) and frequency (10-42 Hz) in a small wind power generation (WPG) system. The proposed converter is also capable of zero-voltage switching in the primary-side switches and zero-current switching in the secondary-side diodes by phase-shift control at a fixed switching frequency. In addition, it is possible to control a wide output voltage (V_o: 39 V_DC-60 V_DC) by varying the link voltage and improving the input power factor (PF) and the total harmonic distortion factor (THD_i). Simulation and experimental results verified the validity of the proposed converter.

전력품질 문제를 해결할 때 직류전기아크로의 선인장치고서 높은 역률을 갖는 컨버터가 요구된다. 본 논문에서는 계통전압의 각 주기에서 커패시터와 인덕터의 공진회로가 부하변수에 따라서 직렬연결상태에서 병력연결상태로, 혹은 그 반대로 전환하면서 고역율을 유지하는 50(60)Hz 교류에서 직류로 변환하는 공진형컨버터가 묘사된다. 직렬연결과 병렬연결의 기간과 변환비는 부하에 따라서 결정되면 병력 공진회로는 단락회로를 제한한다. 이 공진형컨버터는 무부하에서 단락회로의 범위까지 높은 역률을 가지며 아크로에 전원공급을 하는 장치로 매우 적당하다.

The light-emitting diode (LED) has been used in a variety of industrial fields and for general 0lighting purposes on account of its high efficiency, low power consumption and long lifespan. The LED is driven by direct current; therefore, an AC/DC converter is typically required for its use. An electrolytic capacitor is generally used for stabilizing DC voltage during use of the AC/DC converter. However, this capacitor has a short lifespan, which makes it a limiting factor in LED lighting. Furthermore, LED lighting requires a dimmable control to enable energy savings and fulfil a growing consumer demand. In this paper, the dimmable single-stage power factor correction (PFC) continuous conduction mode (CCM) flyback converter that employs no electrolytic capacitor is presented. The LC resonant filter is alternatively applied to reduce the 120[Hz] ripple on the output. And the optimum value of the LC resonant filter parameters considering both efficient and performance is analysed. Simulation and experimental results verify the satisfactory operation of the converter.

본 논문에서는 소프트 스위칭에 의한 새로운 고역률 승압형 AC-DC 컨버터가 제안되고 입력전류의 파형 및 고조파분석에 대해 상세히 해석된다. 시비율 일정의 전류불연속 제어에 의해 동작되는 제안된 컨버터의 입력전류는 교류 입력전압의 크기에 비례한 불연속적인 펄스열의 정현파 형태로 되어 입력역률을 개선시킨다. 또한 제안된 컨버터는 소프트 스위칭을 위한 공진동작에 의해 무손실 스너버 커패시터의 입력측 에너지 유입에 따른 역률증대의 효과를 가지며, 기존의 고역률 승압형 AC-DC 컨버터와 비교되어 입력전류의 수학적 분석과 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션, 실험결과 등에 의해 그 우수성이 입증된다.

A boost converter proposed in this paper operates with high power factor due to input current of sinusoidal waveform. If there were no input LPF, the current is got to be discontinuos form in proportion to AC input voltage magnitude under the constant duty factor switching. Thereupon, the harmonics of input current waveform is reduced and the LPF is made with few elaboration and the control circuit is simple. The switching devices in proposed circuit are operated with soft switching by the partial resonant method. The patial resonant circuit makes use of a reactor using step-up and a capacitor of loss-less snubber. The result is that switching loss is very low and efficiency of system is high.

This paper describes the design and implementation of a unit module for a 10 kVA class 13.2 kV/220 V unidirectional solid-state transformer (SST) with silicon-carbide metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors. The proposed module consists of an active-front-end (AFE) converter to interface 1320 V AC voltage source to 2500 V DC link and an isolated resonant DC-DC converter for 500 V low-voltage DC output. The design approaches of the AFE and the isolated resonant DC-DC converters are addressed. The control structures of the converters are described as well. The experiments for the converters are performed, and results verify that the proposed unit module can be successfully adopted for the entire SST operation.
