Abstract

In this paper, a circuit for power factor correction by implementing two boost converters arranged in parallel is developed. Initially, the work involves simulation of nonlinear load and corresponding waveforms. Later boost converter and dual boost converter has been implemented in the circuit to improve power quality. Also comparison between the boost and dual boost converter has been presented. The main objective is to improve the input current waveform. Simulation work is carried out using MATLAB Simulink environment.
