“…Two parallel cost-effective 24-pulse rectifiers are suggested in [16], which use two passive harmonic injection circuits at dc link. In [17,18], two series 24-pulse rectifiers with various passive voltage harmonic injection circuits are proposed. A single-phase bridge rectifier and a single-phase full-wave rectifier are used to achieve voltage harmonic injection, which eventually multiplies the rectifier pulse number from 12 to 24.…”

In this study, a new 36‐pulse rectifier with a hybrid DC‐reinjection circuit is proposed. It multiplies the AC‐side input voltage steps from 12 to 36 using a hybrid auxiliary circuit for voltage and current modulation. Both the AC and DC side harmonics of the rectifier system are efficiently suppressed when combined with filter capacitors at DC side. Only 2 more diodes and an IGBT are used in the proposed approach for constituting the injection circuit. The cascaded structure of rectifier bridges allows for significant voltage gain, making it appropriate for high power output rectification applications. The proposed 12‐pulse rectifier's phase shifting structure and 36‐pulse rectifier's operational theory are introduced. The injection transformer's turn ratio and the IGBT's conduction angle are both designed to have the lowest possible harmonic distortion of the voltage at AC side. Analyses are done on the rectifier's impedance matching feature and energy loss of IGBT. The operating performance of the rectifier is assessed when the active switch fails. With the help of a 1.8 kW prototype and a HIL system based on Starsim, the theoretical portion is confirmed. The results of the simulation and experiments support the effectiveness of the hybrid voltage harmonic injection method studied.

In this paper, a new simple pulse multiplication circuit (SPMC) with low current stress is proposed, in order to upgrade a normal 20-pulse autotransformer rectifier (20PAR) to a 40PAR. The proposed SPMC comprises two tapped inter-phase reactors (TIPRs) and two additional diodes with lower conduction losses. The proposed SPMC does not require a zero-sequence blocking transformer (ZSBT) compared to conventional pulse multiplication circuits, which leads to simplicity in implementation. Simulation and experimental results show that the total harmonic distortion (THD) of the input current using 40PAR is less than 3%, which meets the DO-160G requirements for aviation applications.

“…The kVA rating of the mentioned design is 18.5%, which is relatively higher than other autotransformers (the kVA rating of the polygon autotransformer is approximately 18% of the load power). In [29], a transformerbased 24-PR has been suggested, which is based on harmonic injection circuit at the dc-link, but its total magnetic part rating was high. In [30], a 36-PR has been reported with a transformer configuration.…”

In this paper, a novel pulse tripling circuit (PTC) is suggested, to upgrade a polygon autotransformer 12-pulse rectifier (12-PR) to a 36-pulse rectifier (36-PR) with a low power rating. The kVA rating of the proposed PTC is lower compared to the conventional one (about 1.57% of load power). Simulation and experimental test results show that the total harmonic distortion (THD) of the input current of the suggested 36-PR is less than 3%, which meets the IEEE 519 requirements. Also, it is shown that in comparison with other multi-pulse rectifiers (MPR), it is cost-effective, its power factor is near unity and its rating is about 24% of the load rating. Therefore, the proposed 36-PR can be considered as a practical solution for industrial applications.
