Abstract :
This paper presents an operating principle in steady state and unique features of a new prototype topology of a utility interactive three-phase active PFC power converter circuit. Its harmonic components of utility-gridside line current and PFC performances are evaluated and discussed on the basis of the experimental and simulation results as compared with the other conventional types of three-phase PFC converters
