Poly-phase machines have been used for many years in motor drives and more recently in wind power generation. In wind generation the most common poly-phase system is the six-phase, which consists of a dual three-phase system, shifted by 30 electrical degrees from each other and with no neutral connection. Typically, this system employs a twelve-pulse diode rectifier to convert AC to DC voltages. Better results can be achieved employing an active rectifier, since it can provide lower distortion in generator currents and regulated output voltage. However, the dynamic and stationary model of this converter are not reported in the literature, taking that into account, this paper proposes a six-phase active rectifier topology for a dual three-phase system. A stationary frame reference for six-phase system is applied to obtain the converter dynamic model in the αβ coordinates and thus a control strategy is proposed in this frame reference. The proposed topology and control strategy were experimentally verified with a 12 kW prototype. The results were appropriated, providing a regulated output voltage, an input current with reduced harmonic distortion and thus high power factor.
