                         To compromise between the switch stress & input PF,
                         Ca is selected so that VCa drops to zero just at the end
                         of an energy transfer mode then immediately rises when
                         the converter enters a freewheeling mode.

Conclusion              It is possible to combine a 3-phase, single switch ac-dc
                        buck converter with a dc-dc ZVZCS FBC to get a
                        feasible 3-phase, single-stage, ac-dc converter.

                        The converter can operate with a very good input PF as
                        long as the input capacitor operate in DVM.

Thesis Conclusion 54 Wijeratne Summary (Contd) Outline Introduction Considering the relationships between key parameters Literature Review graphs of steady-state characteristics were obtained. Thesis Objectives They were used as part of the design procedure to select Fundamental Principles the key converter parameters. The Proposed Converter A prototype was built & its functionality was confirmed Converter Analysis with simulation & obtained experimental results. Converter Design & Experimental Waveforms Conclusion Conclusion It is possible to combine a 3-phase, single switch ac-dc buck converter with a dc-dc ZVZCS FBC to get a feasible 3-phase, single-stage, ac-dc converter. The converter can operate with a very good input PF as long as the input capacitor operate in DVM.
  • 66. M.E.Sc. Thesis Conclusion (Contd) 55 Wijeratne Conclusion Outline Introduction Smaller the input capacitors, the better the input PF, Literature Review larger the maximum peak voltage of converter switches. Thesis Objectives A trade-off between peak switch voltage stress & input Fundamental Principles PF is made. The Proposed Converter If Llk is too small, then the input capacitors may start Converter Analysis to recharge while the converter is in an energy transfer Converter Design mode. & Experimental Waveforms The input capacitors determine converter’s ability to Conclusion produce the required output dc voltage. If they are too small, can’t store sufficient amount of energy during freewheeling which can be transferred during an energy transfer mode.
  • 67. M.E.Sc. Thesis Conclusion 56 Wijeratne Contributions Outline Introduction A new 3-phase, ac-dc, single-stage, ZVZCS full-bridge Literature Review PWM converter that can operate with an excellent input Thesis Objectives PF was proposed & its operation was explained. Fundamental Principles The steady-state operation was analyzed & its The Proposed Converter characteristics were determined. Converter Analysis A procedure for its design was derived & demonstrated. Converter Design & Experimental Waveforms The feasibility & the properties of the new converter Conclusion were confirmed by simulation & by experimental results obtained from a prototype.
  • 68. M.E.Sc. Thesis Conclusion 57 Wijeratne Proposal for Future Work Outline Introduction The switches in the ZCS leg of the converter turn off Literature Review with almost zero reverse current. Thesis Objectives This reverse current was absorbed by small, passive RCD Fundamental Principles snubber circuit connected across the dc bus. The Proposed Converter For future work, the dissipative snubber can be replaced Converter by suitable non-dissipative snubber to improve the Analysis efficiency. Converter Design & Experimental Waveforms The lack of a dc bus capacitor in the proposed converter Conclusion means that it cannot be used in applications as a stand alone converter if hold-up is required. For future work, some means to introduce energy storage at the dc bus can be investigated.
