In this paper, the single-phase full bridge two-pulse converter is appropriately examined. The study is intended to provide converter users with the appropriate qualities and characteristics of this phase controlled converter for various power applications and uses in the power system. Using fourier series the power factor of the converter was calculated and plotted in MATLAB, and from the end result, the power quality of the converter can be remedied and/or improved if the phase number is increased by introducing input transformers.
