This paper presents an originally-developed system for design and optimization of AC-DC converters dedicated in particular to operation in distributed generation systems. The proposed procedure is based on a multi-objective discrete optimization and expert knowledge of electrical engineering, especially power electronics. The required accuracy of calculations is obtained by using the database with real components, while the parameters applied in calculations are based on parameters provided by the manufacturer. The paper presents the foundations and basic system properties, the design and optimization process, and selected optimization results, obtained with a fully functional prototype of the design and optimization system (DaOS).
This paper presents the design and analysis of a polygon connected autotransformer based 36-phase AC-DC converter which supplies direct torque controlled induction motor drives (DTCIMD’s) in order to have better power quality conditions at the point of common coupling. The proposed converter output voltage is accomplished via two paralleled eighteen-pulse AC-DC converters each of them consisting of nine-phase diode bridge rectifier. An autotransformer is designed to supply the rectifier. The design procedure of magnetics is in a way such that makes it suitable for retrofit applications where a six-pulse diode bridge rectifier is being utilized. The proposed structure improves power quality criteria at ac mains and makes them consistent with the IEEE-519 standard requirements for varying loads. Furthermore, near unity power factor is obtained for a wide range of DTCIMD operation. A comparison is made between 6-pulse and proposed converters from view point of power quality indices. Results show that input current total harmonic distortion (THD) is less than 4% for the proposed topology at variable loads. A laboratory prototype of the proposed Polygon-Connected autotransformer-based 36-pulse AC-DC converter is developed and test results are presented to validate the developed design procedure and the simulation models of this AC-DC converter under varying loads.

A novel single-stage AC/DC converter is proposed in this letter. The converter is designed by integrating a sepic circuit and a flyback circuit, the circuit work in the quasi-resonance state, and the switch is turned on in the zero voltage switching (ZVS) state, which decreased the switching losses of the converter.
