Abstract

This paper proposes a simplified equivalent circuit model that can be used in the presentation of characteristic harmonic components generated by full wave diode rectifiers. In the model, the load current is assumed to be constant as in many industrial applications. In order to obtain an accurate and exact analysis, the proposed model involves both current harmonics on AC side and voltage harmonics on DC side of the full wave rectifiers. The model depends on Fourier series expansion for the load voltage and the source current waveforms.
