Supply Current Harmonics Control Using

Multipulse Converters Rinki Jain Deependra Singh, Monesh Jain S.A.T.I. Vidisha Lect, ASCT Bhopal [email protected], [email protected] [email protected], ABSTRACT:-

The three phase multipulse AC-DC

converters are developed for improving

power quality at dc output side and ac

input side. This dissertation deals with

input current shaping of uncontrolled

and controlled rectifier using Multipulse

current shaping concept. The topology

referred to as the multipulse converter,

used as a modular structure where each

power module comprises of a three

phase bridge rectifier (controlled or

uncontrolled), a transformer for 12 pulse

converter and AC and DC side LC

filters. Rectifier used is 6 pulse and 12

pulse uncontrolled and controlled

converter. The performance

improvement of multipulse converter is

achieved in terms of supply power

factor, total harmonics distortion (THD)

in supply current and dc voltage ripples.

Effect of filter in output voltage and

current of inverter is presented in terms

of their THD. Investigations have been

made for different values of LC filter

elements on output current, output

voltage, and supply current and ripple in

dc component. These results confirms

according to IEEE Standard 519-1992.

WHAT ARE MULTIPULSE AC-DC

CONVERTERS

Multi pulse converters are converters

providing more than six pulses of DC

voltage per cycle from AC input. Or the

converter having more steps in AC input

current than that of six pulse bridge

rectifier supply current. Bridge rectifier

is the basic block required for AC- DC

conversion, however , full- wave and

half wave rectifier are also used up to

120kW ratings. Phase shifting

transformers are used to derive multiple

phase supply from three-phase AC

mains using different combinations of

transformer windings such as star, delta,

zigzag, fork, polygon, etc.

The following are multi-pulse converter

are used in paper:

(1) 6 Pulse Converters

(2) 12 Pulse Converters

SIX PULSE DOIDE CONVERTER

In multiples converters server six

pulse diode rectifier all diodes are

connected in parallel. Each rectifier fed

by phase shifted secondary windings

voltages of a transformer to shape the

primary current close to sinusoidal. As

compared to a six - pulse rectifier the

transformer primary current in a

multipulse converter is shaped using

time displaced step wave shaped.

Increasing the number of rectifier raises

the number of steps in the primary

current wave from & produces a sinusoidal

shaped supply current flowing into the

transformer primary winding.

The three - Phase input supply voltage (Van,

Vbn, Vcn) without line impedance drop

could be expresses as

SIMULATION & RESULT

The simulation block of three-phase

six-pulse diode is shown in further

figures. It consists of three phase ac

source to supply .The line voltage are

Vab, Vbc & Vca.

A RL load is connected across the six-

pulse diode converter. The result can be

visualized through the scope.

It can be observed by seeing waveform

that the distorted input current waveform

is obtained form this converter. It is not

pure sinusoidal the output voltage

waveform contains the ripple in greater

amount & the THD of supply current

also in greater amount. To modify these

waveforms & remove the harmonics,

number of pulse is too increased.

TWELVE PULSE DOIDE CONVERTER

In the proposed converter circuits Multiples

rectifiers could be connected either in parallel or

in series. The choice of series or parallel

connection depends upon the load voltage

requirement. To connect multiple rectifier units

in a multiples converter circuit, a transformer

with a single primary and multiple isolated

secondary winding is needed. A configuration

(simple, zigzag, and/or multiple sections) of

secondary windings in the transformer magnetic

cores ensures windings produces leading voltage

and the remaining half produces logging voltage

with respect to that of primary winding voltage.

The windings are divided into two equal

numbers to produce the desisted leading &

lagging voltage with respect to primary winding

voltage.

CONCUSION:-

In this paper following objectives are fulfilled:

1. The various characteristics of

multipulse converter are obtained

from the simulation. With increase

in the number of pulses,

harmonics in AC input quantities

are reduced considerably. This has

been obtained from the simulation.

Compared to six pulse Thyristor /

Diode converter in twelve pulse

Thyristor / Diode converter

a) The ripple in Vd is decreased

b) The Total Harmonics

Distortion in supply current

,supply voltage , output

voltage ,output current is

decreased

c) Shape of the primary current

changes from non- sinusoidal

to closed sinusoidal

2. In order to increase pulse in the

converter circuit, additional

bridges and corresponding phase

shifting transformers are required

due to which the VA rating of

converter is increased. It can be

used in large range for large range

with same model.

3. Work has been carried out for

different values of L and C

parameter of LC filter to eliminate

/ reduce harmonics. Results have

been shown in tables and graph.

On effect the value of Capacitor :

a) The fundamental value of

inverter output current is

increased with increasing

value of capacitor.

b) The fundamental value of

output current is increased

with increasing value of

capacitor.

c) The fundamental value of

output voltage is increased

with increasing value of

capacitor.

d) The total harmonics distortion

of output current is decreased.

e) The total harmonics distortion

of output voltage is decreased

or increased with particular

value of L and C. it not

depends only increasing the

value of C and L.

f) The total harmonics distortion

of output current is decreased

or increased with particular

value of L and C. it not

depends only increasing the

value of C and L.

Elimination of specified

harmonics LC filter has been

analyzed for different resonating

frequency. From this study, it is

observed that lower order

harmonics have been eliminated

from output Voltage and current

of converter. Results have shown

in graph.
