Abstract

This paper present design and simulation of boost type Power Factor Correction (PFC) converter which improved the power quality. With  the enormous development in the usage of power converters circuits like rectifiers which is non linear loads, the current drawn by these non- linear loads will not follow the supply voltage (i.e. non simulation). This results in high Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) and poor Power Factor (PF). Hence there is a need of converter topology to improve the PF and reduce line current harmonic. Boost type PFC converters is most popular topology for improving the PF in supply AC side. Average Current Mode (ACM) control technique is employed to control the boost converter in Continuous Conduction Mode (CCM). Simulation of proposed system is carried out using MATLAB/ Simulink platform.
