UPFC-Unified Power Factor Control

This project provides continuous power factor correction without manual capacitive bank loading. A PFC controller provides power factor correction and peak current limiting for a switch-mode power converter of any topology buck! boost or buckboost"! without having to directly sense inductor current. The PFC control techni#ue involves using a piecewise-polynomial analog computer AC" to compute power transistor on-times in accordance with separate polynomial transfer functions for powerfactor control and peak-current-linking using as inputs current representations of line input voltage $%&"! load output voltage $%'"! and long-term current demand $C'". A conduction cycle is initiated by sensing when the rate of change in the inductor current reaches (ero using an au)iliary winding on the current storage inductor! and terminated after the computed on-time to implement either power-factor control or peak-currentlimiting. The *eactive Power charge on your electricity bill is directly targeted against those companies who do not demonstrate clear energy efficiency use. +ou will find this charge itemi(ed on electricity bill. *eactive power charges can be made significantly smaller by the introduction of Power Factor Correction Capacitors which is a widely recogni(ed method of reducing an electrical load and minimi(ing wasted energy! improving the efficiency of a plant and reducing the electricity bill. ,t is not always necessary to reach a power factor of -. A cost effective solution can be achieved by increasing your power factor to greater than ../0 This project uses regulated 0$! 10.mA power supply. 12.0 three terminal voltage regulator is used for voltage regulation. 3ridge type full wave rectifier is used to rectify the ac out put of secondary of 45.6-4$ step down transformer.
