Dynamic voltage restorer development and testing

The growing use of sensitive loads in the electric power system, especially in industrial applications, increases voltage sags related production losses considerably, stimulating a demand for power electronics' based solutions to mitigate the effects of such problems. This paper shows the implementation and some industrial certification tests of a power equipment prototype designed to correct sags and swells, a dynamic voltage restorer, which is one of the many possible solutions for voltage sags and swells problems Experimental results of a 75kVA prototype are shown both in laboratory and full load conditions, in a certification institution (IEE-USP). © 2011 IEEE.

Experimental evaluation of the bridgeless interleaved boost PFC converter

This paper presents theoretical evaluation and experimental results to the proposed bridgeless interleaved boost PFC (power factor correction) converter. The application of bridgeless technique causes reduction of conduction losses, while the interleaving technique of the converter cells allows division of the current stress in semiconductor devices and reduction of weight and volume of the input EMI filter. In each cell of the converter, the inductor current operates in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM), which eliminates turn-on switching losses and the effects of reverse recovery in semiconductors, increasing the efficiency of the converter. The experimental results show the power factor of 0.96 for employed voltage ratio and an efficiency of 95.2 % for nominal load conditions. © 2012 IEEE.
