AB - The complete dc characteristics of the three-phase modular power-factor-correction (PFC) converters using single-phase pulsewidth modulation (PWM) dc-to-dc converter modules for high-power application are studied. Using circuit averaging, the converter input and output quantities are determined numerically. Both the continuous and discontinuous output current modes of operation (CCM and DCM) are studied in detail. Near-unity power factor can be achieved with the converter modules operating in the DCM. An averaged model was used to study and determine the boundaries between DCM and CCM over the full period of the three-phase input voltage. It is found that high power factor is inherent in the converter system provided that the converters are operated in the DCM and the voltage conversion ratio is selected properly. The criteria for obtaining high power factor are analyzed and the optimal circuit parameters are determined to obtain the best achievable power factor. Both simulations and experimental results from a 1.5-kW prototype using full-bridge converter modules have confirmed the analysis.
