Verkamman, Sjors (author)Boost-type power factor correction (PFC) rectifiers can be used in, for example, battery charging systems for Electric Vehicles (EVs). Conventionally available three-phase PFC rectifiers are limited to output 1/3 of the rated power when connected to a single-phase mains. This work presents the research into the single-phase operation of the...master thesis 2020

Tsiakos, Dimitrios (author)This project investigates the newly proposed Belgian Rectifier, a novel three-phase boost power factor correction rectifier which is advantageous for AC-to-DC conversion in applications, such as, off-board and on-board chargers for electric vehicles. The Belgian rectifier can achieve very high levels of efficiency<br/>and power density, while...master thesis 2020
