Abstract |
Three-phase power factor correctors exist in a wide variety. A large step in improving the education on this important field is accomplished by integrating a detailed cognitive part (all circuit structures, basic properties, operation) and a practical part (mathematical analysis, structural synthesis, design, simulation) into an Microsoft © Access® database environment. The data base exhibits the opportunity to select by query the corresponding topologies and circuits of pre-defined properties, and to have full access to the original publications of all included circuits and the variations and improvements. Selecting the most suitable circuit for a specific demand is supported by integrating standard and advanced power quality factors and numerical parameters on cost and performance. The data base allows a favourable overview on power factor correction circuits during learning and also for developers of industrial circuits. |
