Figure 1 shows a 12 pulse AC/DC converter fed from 3‐phase 400V, 50Hz supply. A level constant DC of 100A is flowing through the load. If the transform‐1 has a turn ratio of NY1/NY2=1:1 and the output voltage Vdc1 and Vdc2 are equal. Build a simulation circuit using MATLAB/SIMULINK/POWER SYSTEM TOOLBOX and carry out the circuit simulation. The report should include the following simulation results and comments:
