Abstract

The current harmonics, occurring in the input side of a power converter system has become big issue. The authors studied a CS PWM GTO converter system in the view of the current harmonics. First, two kinds of switching methods are analyzed by comparison. Second, a novel type of LC filter configuration named the LRC filter, is proposed and analyzed. Simple design method and design data for the proposed filter configuration are presented and compared with the serial damping resistor type. The steady state and dynamic performances of the system are investigated. The simulation and experimental results are also presented.<>
