The proposed control approach incorporates an enhanced Virtual Flux estimator made up of a cascade second-degree low-pass filter. This latter guarantees the attenuation of the highest harmonics. The introduced control concept presented in this paper has interesting features such as reducing the current harmonics distortion. In other words, it ensures that the input current drawn from the power supply is perfectly sinusoidal whatever the state of the network voltage. The proposed method also allows to maintain the DC side capacitor voltage at the required level and assure that the input current is in phase with the respective voltage to satisfy the unity power factor function. The results obtained from the numerical simulation have proved the effectiveness of the proposed method for disturbed grid voltage and system parameters variation.}, type={Article}, title={Dual Virtual Flux-based Direct Power Control for rectifier under harmonically distorted voltage condition}, URL={http://www.journals.pan.pl/Content/117674/PDF/art15.pdf}, doi={10.24425/aee.2020.134641}, keywords={Direct Power Control (DPC), Dual Virtual Flux (DVF), Phase Locked Loop (PLL), Pulse with Modulation (PWM), rectifiers, Virtual Flux (VF)}, }
