“…A comparison among different cycloconverter topologies based on TBV/V is presented in Figure 17b. This figure indicates that the proposed topology has the lowest TBV/V, whereas the highest number is observed for Agarwal [11], Agarwal [12], and Khedekar [14]. Therefore, the proposed topology will offer a low cost for designing.…”

“…On the other hand, Biswas [10] and Idris [13] topologies use the lowest number of switches, and Idris [13] also uses 4 diodes. The lowest number of switches has been observed for Agarwal [11], Agarwal [12], and Khedekar [14] topologies. The other significant indicator is total blocking voltage/voltage (TBV/V), which also has a direct impact on the cost of a converter topology.…”

“…of switching devices) are used to evaluate the proposed cycloconverter with other state of the art methods. The results show that the proposed method has the lowest THD and has better TBV/V than [10][11][12][13][14]. The proposed method has less components than [11][12][13][14] but more than [10] by one switch, which enables lower THD.…”

In variable speed applications, the cycloconverter-based AC to AC power conversion technique has gained more attention among researchers and academics than the traditional rectifier-inverter-based AC to AC power conversion process. The conventional rectifier-inverter-based AC to AC power conversion process has several disadvantages. It uses multi-power stages that increase the converter power conversion losses and increase the cost, volume, and weight of power losses. Besides high conduction and switching losses, the electromagnetic interference problems also accompany the above issues. In this regard, this paper proposes a novel step-down Triac based cycloconverter for variable speed control applications. The proposed topology uses only five Triac devices for one-third and one-fourth frequency conversion of 50 Hz with reduced total harmonics distortion without using any pulse width modulation techniques. The proposed model is designed in the MATLAB/SIMULINK environment. The simulation results show that around 18.85% and 23.67% of total harmonics distortions are reduced in the proposed converter for one-third and one-fourth frequency conversion of 50 Hz, respectively. Two physical experiments are carried out to prove the validity of the simulation results.
