Enhanced Power Factor Correction for BLDC motors using Zeta converter system presented in this project, the focus is on improving the power factor of a Brushless DC (BLDC) motor, which is crucial for efficient energy utilization and reduced losses in electrical systems. The chosen approach involves the utilization of a Zeta converter integrated with a Proportional-Integral (PI) or Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) controller. These controllers are widely used in industrial applications for their ability to regulate system behavior effectively. The project methodology includes MATLAB simulation to assess and compare the performance of the Zeta converter with that of the Sepic converter. The comparison aims to determine which converter configuration yields superior results in terms of power factor correction for the BLDC motor. By analyzing simulation results, insights into the advantages and limitations of each converter topology can be gained, aiding in the selection of the most suitable configuration for practical applications. Furthermore, the project extends beyond simulation by incorporating a hardware setup. This hardware setup integrates the Zeta converter with the PI/PID controller and includes an additional feature: overcurrent protection. Overcurrent protection is essential for safeguarding the motor and associated components from damage caused by excessive current flow, which can occur due to various factors such as short circuits or overload conditions. Overall, this project contributes to the advancement of power electronics and motor control systems by providing a comprehensive analysis of power factor correction techniques for BLDC motors. The findings offer valuable insights for engineers and researchers seeking to optimize energy efficiency and performance in industrial and automotive applications. Additionally, the inclusion of overcurrent protection in the hardware setup enhances the practical relevance and safety of the project, addressing real-world concerns in motor control system design and implementation.
