Abstract

This paper offers a new approach to analyses of cycloconverter operation. The difference equations describing the cycloconverters' transient and steady-state operating regimes are derived. Theoretical predictions were validated by a computer program which calculated the load current of different cycloconverter topologies using the proposed methodology. The calculated and experimental results are compared and found to be in good agreement.
