Experiment #01
Circuit Diagram:
Theory:
A diode is a specialized electronic component with two electrodes called the anode and the cathode. Most diodes are made with semiconductor materials such as silicon, germanium, or selenium. Some diodes are comprised of metal electrodes in a chamber evacuated or filled with a pure elemental gas at low pressure. Diodes can be used as rectifiers, signal limiters, voltage regulators, switches, signal modulators, signal mixers, signal demodulators, and oscillators.

Form Factor:
Form factor is defined as the ratio of Rms value to the average value and it represents the multiplying factor or scaling factor for a device when its input need to changed from DC to AC.
V-I Characteristics:
A semiconductor diodes currentvoltage characteristic, or IV curve, is related to the transport of carriers through the so-called depletion layer or depletion region that exists at the p-n junction between differing semiconductors.. Following Figure shows the characteristics of a P-N junction diode (not to scale).

Theory: Rectifier:
A rectifier is an electrical device that converts alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC), a process known as rectification.
Half-wave rectification:
In half wave rectification, either the positive or negative half of the AC wave is passed, while the other half is blocked. Because only one half of the input waveform reaches the output, it is very inefficient if used for power transfer. Half-wave rectification can ASADNAEEM 2006RCETEE22 Page5

SCRs are unidirectional (one-way) current devices, making them useful for controlling DC only. If two SCRs are joined in back-toback parallel fashion just like two Shockley diodes were joined together to form a DIAC, we have a new device known as the TRIAC:

Circuit Diagram:
Theory:
Firing or triggering a thyristor means to apply a positive voltage at the gate (between its gate and cathode).
Firing Angle:
The angle at which the voltage across the gate is applied is called the firing angle. ASADNAEEM 2006RCETEE22

(a)
Resistive Load:
Figure shows a single ideal thyristor supplying a resistive load. The thyristor is being turned ON after a delay of quarter a cycle after the voltage zero. In the case of RESISTIVE load, the load current follows exactly the load voltage.
(b)
Inductive Load:
Now the thyristor supplies an INDUCTIVE load and again thyristor is being turned ON after a delay of about a quarter of cycle after the voltage is zero. In this case the load voltage VL is made up of two components, the voltage across the inductor Vi and Vr and the current through the thyristor has an initial value of zero. The conduction period for the fully controlled bridge is and that of a half controlled bridge is (-) as a result of the action of the commutating diode. The effect of commutating diode on the operation of the half controlled bridge is clearly seen from the output voltage and current waveforms. The respective load voltages ignoring diode and thyristor forward voltage drops are: For Fully controlled bridge,

As the direction of the current through the thyristor doesnt reverse, the effect is to transfer power from DC-system to ACsystem in which case the converter is operating in inverting mode.
Procedure:

Firing Angle:
The angle at which the voltage across the gate is applied is called the firing angle.
Motor Load:
We have two methods for controlling the speed of a DC motor namely current controlled and voltage controlled method. The speed of motor is inversely proportional to the field current. However speed of motor is directly proportional to the applied voltage. By varying the applied voltage the speed can be varied from a maximum value to rest. If the applied voltage is equal to zero, torque produced in the motor will be equal to zero, thus causing the motor to stop. By a controlled rectifier, we can vary the voltage input to the motor. The applied voltage will be maximum when the thyristors are triggered at an angle equal to zero degree and it will be zero for a firing angle of 180 degrees. The area under the curve of the rectified voltage reduces with the increasing firing angle thus decreasing the average or DC output.
Procedure:
Connect the circuit as shown in the circuit diagram Vary the firing angle of thyristors from zero to 90 degrees and observe the speed variation for the motor which will be decreasing with increasing firing angle Now vary the firing angle of thyristors from zero to 180 degrees and observe the speed variation for the motor which will be decreasing with increasing firing angle

THEORY:
The TRIC is triggered by positive gate current when A1 is negative with respect to A2. ASADNAEEM 2006RCETEE22
Page34
POWERELECTRONICSLABMANUAL
A DIAC is connected between the gate and an RC circuit. When the capacitor voltage rises far enough to overcome the sum of break power voltage of the DIAC and the forward drop of the gate, the DIAC fires, and the capacitor discharges rapidly into the gate, and the TRIAC is triggered into conduction. Since RP controls the time constant at which the capacitor charges, it is used to control the firing angle F. Large values of RP delay the charging and therefore increase the firing angle. When A1 is negative with respect to A2, the polarities of all voltages are reversed and TRIAC is triggered into conduction during a portion of VE cycles. The firing angle can be adjusted in practical circuits from 0 to 180. So load current can be made to flow for nearly an entire cycle of input for a very small portion of input cycle. The load resistance used must be a power resistor because due to excessive current low power rating resistor may be destroyed. This type of dimmer is best suited for resistive loads only. There is a spike voltage associated with each TRIAC turn off. With inductive load connected, the turn on time of the TRIAC increases. With inductive load connected a full sine wave is achieved even before firing angle becomes zero. This happens when the firing angle and turn off delay of the TRIAC coincide. ASADNAEEM 2006RCETEE22 Page35
POWERELECTRONICSLABMANUAL
PROCEDURE:
The design procedure of this experiment includes the values of R1, R2 and C1 such that the capacitor voltage during each cycle reaches a point to trigger the DIAC which will then trigger the TRIAC. The commercially available DIAC has a typical break over voltage of 32V. Hence when the DIAC fires in each half cycle it will allow the capacitor to discharge up to 1/3 of the capacitor voltage in this case 32V the DIAC will trigger and then TRIAC will trigger. The same process will repeated in reverse direction. The capacitor selected must not be of very small value so that the proper triggering may not be possible due to low energy storage and hence low power gate spike for the thyristor. The value of capacitor should be such that the maximum value of current through resistor connected in series with the capacitor is within the safe limits. The power must not exceed the rating of the variable resistor. Typically used values of capacitor are up to 1F for supply voltages>40V. A lower value than this upper limit results in better design. R2 is used to protect accidental application of full supply voltage across the capacitor which can be damaged due to excessive current. Connect the circuit as shown in the circuit diagram. Then vary the value of RVAR to change the time constant of the capacitor which in turn will vary the firing angle of TRIAC. Then draw the waveforms.

T=RC Where T=1/f And f=50Hz Therefore, T=1/50=20msec Since only one half cycle is used, so T=10msec Taking some suitable value of C, the value of R can be calculated using T=RC. Assume some value of resistance RL must be used to avoid burning due to high value of current. A 100 ohms resistance is connected in series with capacitor in its discharging path to limit the gate current. The diode in series with the DIAC is used to limit the reverse bias voltage at the gate terminals during negative half cycles.
