    Bridge rectifier of three-phases is has widely applications in power systems. This rectifier consummates a wave form that has been shaped by a non-linear of the input current, though in the power system. The harmonic parts caused by such power electronic devices have critical effects on a number of aspects of power networks, particularly, on distribution. In accumulation, the value of Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) is high; it causes unwanted distortion on the sinusoidal figure of the wave for the input current. The outcomes propose a new circuit for a three-phase rectifier, making use of harmonic current injection method. The MATLAB software has been used to simulate the proposed circuit. A prototype has been developed to prove the actual results and compare them with the simulation results of the proposed circuit. The proposed circuit applies active harmonic current injection method with a capacitor bank, which, compared to conventional circuits, is not sophisticated. The model has been verified with feedback injection harmonic current to demonstrate the strength of the system. The evaluation of the simulation results and experimental outcomes from the prototype represents an unimportant difference. The proposed circuit has minimized the THD drawn from the input current supply down to 5.5%

    This paper schemed a circuit which applying active harmonic injection current with star connection of capacitors bank. The proposed circuit has a controller that regulates the synchronization of phase and injected appropriate harmonic waveform to reduce the harmonic components that appears in the three phase system. The aspirations of this paper were to propose and construct a three-phase rectifier with third harmonic injection current with regard to obtain an input current of three phase bridge rectifier of sinusoidal waveforms and produce low total harmonic distortion (THD). Consequently, the prototype of the three phase rectifier of the harmonic injection current is designed and fabricated. In this paper, in order to develop the method to obtain sinusoidal waveforms for input current, new method of harmonic injection in current is suggested.

    Owing to the growing concerns over energy depletion and environmental issues around the world, more and more attention is given on replacing the fuel-based automobiles with electric vehicles (EVs) which have the characteristics of zero-emission and low noise. As a result, various countries have taken specific initiatives to de-carbonize their transport sectors by developing their own EV industry. Regardless of the environmental and economic benefits, substantial scales of grid-connected EVs impose incredible difficulties to the power grid. The main issues caused by EV charging to the power grid include harmonics, voltage drop, system instability, system losses and grid overloading. Therefore, this paper presents design and development of a novel method, which is by applying voltage-oriented control (VOC) algorithm in battery charging of electric bus.The power system of this work consists of three-phase PWM rectifier. The proposed method is based on mathematical analysis. Simulation and experimental works are performed to investigate behavior and performance of the proposed algorithm. This paperclearly described implementation of low and medium power laboratory prototype and operation of digital signal processor (DSP) via MATLAB / Simulink for the proposed method

    In order to successfully launch Electric vehicles (EVs) over the actual world, EVs battery chargers have a crucial role to predict the charging time. This work presents the design process of a universal EV charger, The proposed charger is able of providing a controllable and constant charging voltage for a various EVs, which is composed of three levels of charging, 650 V/100 A DC for bus or lorry, single-phase 120 V/16 A AC for motorcycle, and three-phase 240 V/60 A for saloon car battery charging. The output voltage ranges are 40 V–60 V, 400 V–500 V, or 500 V–600 V. The power system of this work consists of two converters; First one, is for the three-phase pulse-width modulated (PWM) of a bridge rectifier with an output of 850 V DC unregulated voltage, while the second converter is for the three-phase DC–DC converter. To satisfy the voltage control and the isolation between Grid To Vehicle (G2V), a three-phase transformer has been exploited within the DC/DC converter. The primary output circuit achieved the charge levels one and two, while the whole circuit output can charge level three or the DC charge. For efficient and secure battery charging, voltageoriented control (VOC) technique is proposed. The unity power factor for the PWM-based rectifier and SPWM are designed and evaluated using MATLAB/Simulink block sets. The total harmonic distortion (THD) for the input current is less than 5%, while the overall simulation-based efficiency is more than 97%. A prototype and simulation results validate that the proposed EV charger is robust, accurate, and applicable
