Study and Simulation of Single-Phase to Three-Phase UPF System for Agricultural Applications

This paper describes simulation and design of single-phase to three-phase UPF system for agricultural/household applications. The average current mode control (ACMC) technique is used for Unity Power Factor (UPF) correction of single phase AC-DC boost converter. A comprehensive study and analysis of single-phase to three-phase converter with UPF operation is presented. Closed loop control of single phase AC-DC UPF boost converter is designed. The three phase voltage source inverter with Sinusoidal Pulse Width Modulation (SPWM) technique has been used for dc to 3-phase ac conversion. The voltage mode control of three-phase voltage source SPWM inverter have been designed and simulated. The complete system with the integration of single-phase and three-phase converter has been simulated. The simulation results with their performance such as power factor (pf), Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) and efficiency have been analysed. The simulation results on resistive load is presented in this paper.
