Abstract
A single-phase single-switch is a switch that has only one phase. This paper discusses the Vienna Rectifier as a front-end for an induction heating system. The suggested Vienna rectifier has a simple control strategy that can help improve system performance such as power factor correction and ac current harmonics distortion. The PSIM software tool was used to perform a computer simulation of the proposed Vienna rectifier and induction heating system. The proposed topology achieves good results in terms of lower ac input current distortion (around 10.6%) and almost unity PF (up to 0.982) at the grid system. However, the simulation was also carried out using a comparable induction heating system employing a complete bridge diode rectifier as the front-end circuit.
