3:1 A single-phase bridge rectifier has a purely resistive load R = 10 9, the peak supply volt-
age Vj = 170 V, and the supply frequency f = 60 Hz. Determine the average output
voltage of the rectifier if the source inductance is negligible.
Vn = 170 V, R= 100, f = 60 Hz
From Eq. (3-21), Vs = 0.6366 Vm = 0.6366 x 170 = 113.32 V
35 A three-phase bridge rectifier has a purely resistive load of R = 100 and is supplied
from a 280-V 60-Hz supply. The primary and secondary of the input transformer are con-
nected in Y. Determine the average output voltage of the rectifier if the source induc-
tances are negligible.
R = 100 ©, Vs = 280 V, F = 60 Hz
Vm = 280 x V2/\3 = 228.6 V
From Eq. (3-40), Vgc = 1.6542 x 228.6 = 378.15 V
3.7 The single-phase bridge rectifier of Figure 3.6a is required to supply an average voltage of
Vie = 400 V toa resistive load of R = 10 2. Determine the voltage and current ratings of
diodes and transformer.
Vee = 400 V,R = 10.9
From Eq. (3-21), Vac = 400 = 0.6366 Vm OF Vin = 628.34 V
The rms phase voltage is Vs = Vin/V2 = 628.34/\2 = 444.3 V
Tae = VaR = 400/10 = 40 A
Diodes:
Peak current, I, = 628.34/10 = 62.834 A
Average current, Ig = Iid2 = 40/2 = 20
RMS current, In = 62.834/2 = 31.417 A
‘Transformer
RMS voltage, Vs = Vm/V2 = 444.3 V
RMS current, Is = Im/V2 = 44.43 A
Volt-amp, VI = 444.3 x 44.43 = 19.74 kVA
Pac = (0.6366 Vn)*/R and Pac = Wels = Vn? /2R
TUF = Pac/Pac = 0.6366? x 2 = 0.8105 and the de-rating factor of the
transformer is 1/TUF = 1.2338. 38 A three-phase bridge rectifier is required to supply an average voltage of Vc = 750 V at
a ripple-free current of ij. = 9000 A. The primary and secondary of the transformer are
connected in Y. Determine the voltage and current ratings of diodes and transformer.
Voc = 750 V, lac = 9000 A
From Eq. (3-40), Vic = 750 = 1.6542 Vin OF Vm = 453.39 V
The phase voltage is Vs = Vm/V2 = 453.39/V2 = 320.59 V
Diodes:
Peak current, Ip = 9000 A
Average current, Is = Iac/2 = 9000/2 = 4500 A
RMS current, I, = 9000/V2 = 6363.96 A
‘Transformer:
RMS voltage, V, = 320.59 V
RMS current, I; = Ip = 9000 A
Volt-amp per phase, VI = 320.59 x 9000 = 2885.31 kVA
TUF = Pyc/Pae = 750 x 9000/(3 x2885.31) = 0.7798 and the de-rating factor
of the transformer is 1/TUF = 1.2824
