MATLAB Code Implementation Using Simulink Toolbox for Single-Phase Full-Bridge Controlled Rectifier Circuit Simulation

In this article, we will conduct a detailed simulation study of a single-phase full-bridge controlled rectifier circuit using MATLAB's Simulink toolbox. We will explore various circuit parameters and analyze performance under different operating conditions. The simulation will involve configuring key components such as thyristors/IGBTs, pulse generators, and LC filters using Simulink's Power Electronics library blocks. We will examine the roles and interactions of circuit components to better understand the operational principles. Through these simulations, we can optimize circuit design to improve efficiency and stability. Additionally, we will investigate other scenarios such as performance under varying load conditions and methods for circuit improvement. These detailed simulations will provide comprehensive insights into the performance and potential of single-phase full-bridge controlled rectifier circuits, offering valuable references and guidance for further research and applications. Key Simulink blocks to be implemented include the Universal Bridge block for rectifier configuration, Pulse Generator for triggering sequences, and measurements blocks for analyzing output voltage/current waveforms.
