Abstract
A novel three-phase diode boost rectifier is proposed in this paper. The core of the proposed topology is a power conversion device [the loss-free transformer (LFT)] with two terminals; one input and one output. The input is parallel-connected with the dc bus capacitor, while the output is connected between the rectifier plus rail and the dc bus plus rail. The LFT is controlled in such a way to control the rectifier current and boost the dc bus voltage. In contrast to the ordinary boost rectifiers, the switches of the new boost rectifier are rated on a fraction of the dc bus voltage and a fraction of the input current. It makes this topology very compact and efficient. Power rating, size, and losses depend strongly on the ratio of the dc bus voltage to rectifier voltage (boosting factor). For example, if the boosting factor is low, below 1.5, the power converter efficiency could be 98-99%. The proposed boost rectifier has been analyzed and experimentally verified on a 5.5-kW prototype. The results are presented and discussed.
