Type of input: Fixed voltage, fixed frequency ac power supplyType of output: Variable dc output voltageThe input supply fed to a controlled rectifier is ac supply at a fixed rms voltage and at a fixed frequency. We can obtain variable dc output voltage by using controlled rectifiers. By employing phase controlled thyristors in the controlled rectifier circuits we can obtain variable dc output voltage and variable average dc output current by varying the trigger angle at which the thyristors are triggered. We can obtain a uni-directional and pulsating load current waveform, which has a specific average value. The thyristors are forward biased during the positive half cycle of input supply and can be turned ON by applying suitable gate trigger pulses at the thyristor gate leads. The thyristor current and the load current begin to flow once the thyristors are triggered at ωt=α. The load current flows when the thyristors conduct from ωt=α to π. The output voltage across the load follows the input supply voltage through the onducting thyristor. At ωt= π, when the load current falls to zero, the thyristors turn off due to AC line commutation.The thyristor remains reverse baised during the negative half cycle of input supply. The type of commutation used in controlled rectifier circuit is referred to AC line commutation or natural commutation AC commutation.When the input ac supply voltage reverses and becomes negative during the negative half cycle, the thyristor becomes reverse baised and hence turns off.APPLICATIONS OF PHASE CONTROLLED RECTIFIERSDC motor control in steel mills, paper and textile mills employing dc motor drives.AC fed traction system using dc traction motor.Electro chemical and electro-metallurgical processes.Magnet power supplies.Reactor controlsPortable hand tool drives.Variable speed industrial drives.Battery chargesHigh voltage dc transmission.Uninterruptible power supply system (UPS)SINGLE-PHASE SEMI CONVERTERAIM: To obtain DC voltage from AC input using single phase semi converter with R load and to plot the variation of output voltage with respect to different values of α.APPARATUS REQUIRED:Sl.No.ItemSpecificationQuantity1SCRTYN61222Power diodeIN 400123CRO -14Bread board-15Triggering Kit-1THEORY:Figure 1 shows the circuit diagram of single phase semi converter supplying a R load. The output voltages vo across load terminals is controlled by varying the firing angles of SCRs T1 and T2. The diodes D1 and D2 provide merely a return path for the current to the most negative line terminal. Figure 2 shows voltage and current waveforms for a 1-phase semiconverter for different firing angles At any instant thyristor connected to most positive line terminal and diode connected to most negative line terminal conducts. During positive cycle thyristor T1 and diode D2 conducts. During negative cycle thyristor T2 and diode D1 conducts. As the triggering angle α increases, the output voltage decreases.
