Harmonic Reduction: The output voltage waveform of an inverter is non-sinusoidal. It contains a rich harmonic content. The Harmonic Reduction cause additional losses and torque pulsations if a three phase…
Selection of Ratings of Devices of a Chopper Converter: Chopper Converter - The waveforms of currents and voltages are useful in deciding the ratings of devices. The main thyristor carries…
Two Quadrant Chopper: Sometimes a chopper may be required to provide a two quadrant operation by retaining the current direction in both motoring and braking modes. Such a Two Quadrant…
Four Quadrants Converters: Four Quadrants Converters - The converters described in the previous sections are suitable either for one quadrant or two quadrant operation. In the former case stepless speed…
Sequence control of Converters: Sequence control of Converters - We have shown that fully controlled converters take lagging reactive power from the mains. This requirement is less in half controlled…
Bridge Rectifier Circuit Diagram with freewheeling diode: A 6 pulse Bridge Rectifier Circuit Diagram with freewheeling diode across the load terminals is shown in Fig. 3.58. As has already been…
Three phase half controlled bridge circuit: This is obtained by a series connection of a 3 pulse controlled converter and a 3 pulse uncontrolled one. The three arms of the…
