Average-Value Modeling of Diode Rectifier Systems under Asymmetrical Operation and Internal Faults

Line-commutated rectifiers (LCRs) are extensively utilized in exciters of large electrical machines, ac-dc power systems of ships, vehicles, aircraft, and many other industrial applications. Efficient and accurate computer simulations are necessary to analyze various aspects of such systems under both normal and unbalanced/faulty operating conditions. The so-called parametric average-value modelin...
