Comparative study between passive and active front-end inverters with respect to inverter and cable losses Universiteit Gent
Nowadays, both active and passive front end rectifiers are used in modern inverter systems. Active front-ends, using high switching frequencies, create extra switching losses compared to passive front ends. However, using active front-ends, a power factor up to 1 and a negligible harmonic content of the loading current can be achieved, resulting in lower cable losses. This contribution analyses the weight of both inverter and cable losses with ...
