ABSTRACT:
The invention provides a T-connected autotransformer for converting three-phase ac input voltages to nine phase shifted ac voltages feeding three sets of three-phase diode rectifier bridges. The nine phase shifted voltages are at an angle of +20 degree or −20 degree with respect to the supply voltages and their magnitudes are essentially identical. The present design requires substantially fewer coils than other autotransformers for 18-pulse AC-DC converters, resulting in saving in space, volume, weight, size and cost of the converter. The magnetics requirement is only about 30% of the drive rating. The output voltage ratio can also be selected to give an average dc output from the proposed converter same as that of a conventional three-phase diode bridge rectifier. However, it is also possible to step up or step down the output voltage as required.
