A single phase fully controlled bridge
converter operates in the continuous
conduction mode from a 230V, 50HZ
single phase supply. Find the suitable
value of firing angle for an average load
current of 4A with continuous conduction
mode and also sketch the waveforms.
Assume the load resistance of 10 ohm and
inductance of a large value.

A single phase fully controlled rectifier has
load aof R=15 and, Vs=220 sin 314 t
and unity transformer ratio. If it is required
to obtain an average output voltage of
70% of the maximum possible output
voltage, calculate:- (a) The delay angle ,
(b) The efficiency, (c) Ripple factor of
output voltage(d) The peak inverse voltage
(PIV) of one thyristor.
