Abstract :
Power factor correction (PFC) is the capacity of generating or absorbing the reactive power produced by a load. The major industrial loads have an inductive power factor. The current tends to go beyond the power is usually used for the power conversion. This paper introduces a forward single-stage power factor correction AC/DC converter which effectively improves the power factor up to PF = 0.999. The simulation and experimental results verified our design
