Summary

Introduction

This paper describes a new three-phase rectifier circuit using the partial switching strategy. The passive method is circuit composed of a diode rectifier circuit, a reactor and a capacitor [1,2] The configuration of this circuit is simple, but a power factor is low and it does not have ability to boost voltage. To solve the problems of these rectifier circuits, a single phase partial switching rectifier circuit was announced in 1999, and it was equipped in air conditioner because of the superior performance [7,8,9] This circuit realizes a high power factor, high efficiency, and a harmonic restraint moderately, and there is ability to boost voltage. The reason is because the current flows almost as same as a phase of the line voltage, when a three-phase circuit is composed based on a conventional single phase partial switching rectifier circuit This will be the cause that is not yet realized. Result of the experiment is reported for the verification of the operating characteristic
