Three phase three switch modular Vienna, Boost and SEPIC rectifiers

Abstract

Vienna and Modular three phase Boost power factor correction rectifiers are similar in working principle and performance. In this paper two rectifier schemes are presented as Vienna Rectifiers scheme-1 and scheme-2. A third three phase rectifier scheme, the three phase three switch modular SEPIC rectifier topology is also presented. The SEPIC topology has step-up/down voltage gain characteristic, whereas Vienna rectifier schemes has step-up voltage gain characteristic. The performance results of the proposed three phase three switch SEPIC rectifier are presented in this paper in tabular and graphical formats.
