TL;DR: In this paper, a simple switching network in form of a rectifier filter is analyzed with application of time-domain methods, and exact expressions are derived for currents in the filter network and the ac supply line as functions of the size of a series inductor in the L-type low pass filter connected to a resistive load.
Abstract: A simple switching network in form of a rectifier filter is analyzed with application of time-domain methods. Exact expressions are derived for currents in the filter network and the ac supply line as functions of the size of a series inductor in the L-type low pass filter connected to a resistive load. The power factor as viewed from the ac supply line is derived from the time-domain expressions for conditions of continuous and discontinuous current. A current form factor is introduced in form of the ratio irms/iav to provide a measure for the added burdens that are imposed on the circuit components due to current deformations inside the switching network. Normalized numerical results for average and rms currents, their form factor, output voltage, and power factor are presented as functions of the ratio of the series inductance L and the critical inductance Lc in form of graphs. The presented treatment of the problem provides insights and information which would require cumbersome work if approached with the conventional methods of frequency domain analysis.

TL;DR: In this article, a device for connecting in series between a source of alternating current power and a direct current load which decouples the power flow from the source to the load and thereby enables efficient modification of the current waveform supplied by the source, reducing current harmonics, improving the current form factor and improving the power factor is presented.

TL;DR: By using the flywheel current effectively, the d.c. servo motor current can be rapidly decreased when the circuit becomes nondriving state or the driving polarity is changed, and the inexpensive circuit of the high performance driving circuit, in which the form factor of the driving signal is improved, can be obtained.

TL;DR: In this paper, the prediction of iron losses in magnetic steels submitted to alternating pulse voltages is studied and an efficient method is proposed by coupling the pulse voltage form factor and the loss separation model.
Abstract: The prediction of iron losses in magnetic steels submitted to alternating pulse voltages is studied and an efficient method is proposed. It is developed by coupling the pulse voltage form factor and the loss separation model. Prediction of iron losses becomes possible directly from the loss model corresponding to the sinusoidal flux density. This method is validated on silicon iron grain-oriented and non-oriented magnetic steels. The predetermined iron losses are coherent with those measured and this approach allows both simplicity and precision well appreciated by industry. >
