Mathematical Models and Simulation of key Multi-Pulse Rectifiers in field of Autonomous Electric Power Supply System, using Matlab/Simulink Programming Environment Compatible with the Concept of a More Electric Aircraft (MEA)

The work deals with the issues of new architecture in terms of power multi-pulse rectifiers based on the 12-, 24-, and 48-pulse rectifiers, compatible with the concept of a MEA. The subject of this paper is to present the analysis, the mathematical models and simulations of the operation of a advanced multi pulse rectifiers, used in the field of energoelectronic power systems PES, both on civil aircraft of aircraft companies Airbus and Boeing (A-380 and A-350XWB, B-787), as well as on military aircrafts of Lockheed Martin (JSF F-35 and F-22 Raptor), compatible with the trend of more electric aircraft. Based on the above, in the final part of the paper the models and analysis of simulation waveforms of considered rectifiers was made and practical conclusions were drawn in terms of advanced power systems PES according to the concept of more electric aircraft.
