PE - Expt 7-Single Phase Fully Controlled Rectifier

The document outlines an experiment to simulate a single-phase fully controlled rectifier using MATLAB-SIMULINK with both resistive (R) and resistive-inductive (R-L) loads. The aim is to observe various waveforms, measure average output voltage, and perform FFT analysis on the input current. The procedure includes setting up the simulation environment and connecting the necessary components as per the circuit diagram.

Single phase Fully Controlled Rectifier

Aim : To simulate a single phase fully Controlled Rectifier with R load & R-L load and
observe the following waveforms: i) output voltage, ii) output current, iii) SCR
current, iv) SCR voltage, v) input current along with supply voltage. Also measure
average (mean value) output voltage in simulation and compare with the analytical
value. Do FFT analysis of the input current and observe the harmonic spectrum.

Apparatus: : MATLAB-SIMULINK platform

Theory:
Single phase fully controlled bridge rectifier with four SCRs is shown below for both
resistive and inductive load. In the positive half cycle, SCRs T1 and T2 are forward
biased, but will not conduct until gate signals are applied. Both will start conducting
when it is triggered at firing angle or triggering angle α. Then current flows from
supply through T1, Load, T2 and back to supply. Supply voltage appears across the
load from α to π for resistive load. In a similar way, during negative half cycle, T3
and T4 will become forward biased. It conducts when it is triggered at π +α. Then
T1 & T2 are commutated because current reduces to zero and negative voltage
appears across T1 and T2.
In case of inductive load, inductor discharges after positive half cycle, after π and
negative voltage appears across the load. If the load is highly inductive, then the load
current will be ripple free. Highly inductive load means the inductance value is very
much higher than the resistance value. The firing angle, α, is the angle interval
between the forward biasing of the SCR and the gate signal application. If the firing
angle is zero, the rectifiers behave exactly as uncontrolled rectifiers with diodes. By
controlling α, average output voltage can be controlled.
