摘要：

With the evolution of the More Electric Aircraft (MEA) concept, high pulse converters have gained the attention of researchers due to their higher power quality. Among the high pulse converters, 18-pulse autotransformer rectifier unit (ATRU) offers better power quality level with small size, weight and medium complexity. The conventional topologies of autotransformers that require the use of extra elements such as Inter Phase Transformers (IPT) or Zero Sequence Blocking Transformers (ZSBT), adding to the complexity, weight and size of the overall system, are not considered in the analysis. For 18-pulse rectification, only those topologies of autotransformers which have the intrinsic current harmonic cancellation capabilities are presented here for comparison. These topologies offer current harmonic levels within limits specified by IEEE 519 with reduced weight and size as compared to the conventional multi-pulse converters. A comparison of different differential delta/fork configured 18-pulse autotransformer rectifier units is presented so as to come up with the best among available topologies with respect to weight, size and power quality. Experimental prototypes of each topology were designed and their results are displayed along with the simulation results for comparison.
