What is load commutation?
it is a type of forced commutation technique of thyristor
What is the difference between current and voltage commutation?
Voltage commutation: This is possible in ac circuits...The thyristor gets turned off by reverse bias (negative half cycle) voltage applied across it. This is also called line commutation. Current Commutation: This is possible in dc circuits ...This type of commutation makes use of auxiliary circuit which contains inductor,capacitor,diode and even a thyristor(auxiliary). This is called Forced commutation.
What is commutation of a rectifier?
Commutation in a rectifier: Refers to the process of transfer of current from one device (diode or thyristor) to the other in a rectifier. The device from which the current is transferred is called the "out going device" and the device to which the current is transferred is called the "incoming device". The incoming device turns on at the beginning of commutation while the out going device turns off at the end of commutation.Commutation failure: Refers to the situation where the out going device fails to turn off at the end of commutation and continues to conduct current.
What is conduction angle in thyristor?
not a clue a A: It all depends on the thyristor. There are no calculation involved not until you look up the thyristor specifications and decide on the load of the thyristor then you may calculate or more likely choose.
What is the function of thyristor?
Thyristor is a kind fast acting switch. These are fully controlled switches
