============================================================== 1. For the single-phase controlled rectifier shown in Figure 1 , L = 10 mH, R = 3 , Vc = 24 V and = 400. (a) Determine whether the load current is continuous or discontinuous. (b) Sketch the output current, the output voltage and the transformer secondary current for one complete cycle. Obtain c) the average output current, d) the rms output current, e) the average and rms thyristor currents, f) the rms value of the transformer secondary current, g) power delivered to Vc , h) the KVA size of the transformer and i) the power factor at the ac source. v i = 240 2 sin 120 t V
