Abstract :
In this paper, the design and implementation of a 3 kW, three-phase, two-channel interleaved Vienna rectifier with greater than 99% efficiency is presented. The operation principle of an interleaved Vienna rectifier is introduced, with particular attention paid to the circulating current generated by interleaving operation. The design procedure for achieving maximum efficiency is described. Methods for loss calculation and hardware implementation involved in the optimization procedure are introduced. Finally, a prototype of the proposed converter is constructed, which achieves 99.08% efficiency at nominal load.
