Abstract
In a system including an input cycloconverter which operates a high frequency resonant tank circuit from a source of low frequency voltage supplied through an input reactor, with or without an output cycloconverter, an input cycloconverter control method and circuit maintains the tank voltage within predetermined limits for both directions of power flow. An additional feature is that the input power factor is programmable. In the voltage control scheme the cycloconverter reference signals vary with the commanded real power and power factor and respectively control the quadrature and direct components of induced cycloconverter voltage.
