Subway Traction Power Supply System Based on PWM Rectifier

Control of Unit Power Factor PWM Rectifier

To solve the problem of harmonic pollution to the power grid that caused by traditional diode rectifier and phase controlled rectifier, the unit power factor PWM rectifier is designed. The topology structure of the rectifier circuit is introduced and the double closed-loop control strategy in three-phase stationary coordinate system is analyzed. For the deficiency of control strategy, the contr...

Unity Power Factor Control by Pwm Rectifier

Abstract This paper analyzes the principle of PWM rectifier and presents a unity power factor control method of PWM rectifier. Controller used double closed-loop PI control, which inner uses three-phase input current control method controlled by unity power factor and outer controls the output DC voltage of rectifier. Voltage phase detection methods which proposed could eliminate the affection ...

Power Quality Improvement in Traction Power Supply Networks

AC railway traction loads are usually huge single phase loads. As a result, a significant amount of Negative Sequence Current (NSC) is injected into utility grid. Moreover, harmonics and consumption ofreactive power are further power quality problems that the supply network is encountering. In this paper, acompensation strategy with the aid of Railway Power Conditioner (RPC) is proposed to over...

Virtual Flux Based Direct Power Control on Vienna Rectifier

This paper proposes the virtual flux based direct power control for Vienna rectifier. No need for the input voltage sensors, the current regulation loop and PWM voltage modulation block along with the active and reactive power decoupling are some of the salient advantages of this method that make it suitable for controlling the conventional active rectifiers. However, due to the three-level nat...
