THREE PHASE FULL CONVERTER

AIM:

To simulate the three phase full converter with R load and also to obtain the corresponding voltage and
current waveforms for various firing angles.

APPARATUS REQUIRED:

1. Desktop Computer with Pentium Processor.

2. MATLAB Software.

FORMULA USED:

1.For R load with 0 ≤ α ≤ 60:

 Va = (3Vm/л)*cos α

 Vm = √2Vs

 I a = Va / R

For R load, α ≤ 60 (Discontinuous conduction)

 Va = (3Vm/π)* (1 + cos (α+(π/3)))

Where, Va = Average output voltage in volts

72
Vm = maximum input line voltage in volts.

α = Delay or Firing angle in degrees.

THEORY:

(i) CONVERTER OPERATION:

A three phase full converter produces fewer ripples in the output than the single phase full converter.
Here the thyristors are triggered in the following sequence T1, T2, T3, T4, T5, T6. At ωt=30˚, thyristor T1
becomes eligible to conduct. Thyristor T1 starts to conduct at ωt=30˚+α after it is fired. T1 and T6 conduct and
the output voltage V0=Vab. At ωt=90˚+α, thyristors T2 is triggered and now T1 and T2 conduct until T3 is
triggered and the output voltage is V0=Vab.

Each thyristor pair conducts for 60˚. There are six segments in the output voltage. If the load is
inductive and if α>60˚, the output voltage has negative segments. The frequency of ripple in the output is 6f s,
where fs is the supply frequency.For a phase angle of upto 30˚, the ’c’ phase winding is more positive than ‘a’
phase winding. Because of that, the thyristor in ‘a’ phase is reverse biased. If we apply the firing angle for
thyristor T1, during this period it will not conduct. Hence the delay angle for the thyristor T1 is measured from
ωt=30˚ of line voltage.

(ii) INVERTER OPERATION:

When the firing angle α is more than 90°, the dc output voltage will be negative. It is only possible to
commutate current from, say thyristor T! to T2 while the instantaneous voltage of phase B is higher than
phase A. At firing angle, α=180°, EB=EA and the relative voltage between the two phases after this reverses,
making commutation impossible, hence α=180° is the limit of operation .

PROCEDURE:

1. Open the simulink model. Select new file from the menu.
2. Model for the three phase fully controlled converter is made as per the circuit diagram.
3. The model is simulated for the firing pulse α=0°. The line voltage leads the phase voltage by 30°. The
firing pulse is measured from 60° of phase voltage (Since T1 is forward biased only after 30° of ‘A’
phase voltage).
4. The output voltage and current waveform are measured.
