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…
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…
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…
Two pulse half controlled bridge converter: A Two pulse half controlled bridge converter is obtained by connecting a two pulse controlled midpoint converter in series with an uncontrolled one, as…
Six Pulse Converter with Interphase Transformer: The basic connection of a Six Pulse Converter with Interphase Transformer is shown in Fig. 3.38. This is obtained by connecting two three pulse…
Six pulse bridge converter: The conduction time of a thyristor in a six pulse connection can be increased when the converter is obtained by a series or parallel connection of…
Six pulse midpoint converter: The converter transformer converts the existing three phase system to a six phase one, since it has six secondary windings. The Six pulse midpoint converter connections…
Three pulse midpoint converter: These are basically three-phase converters, and are very popular because a 3-phase supply is readily available. 3-phase converters have a greater power capability than single phase…
