1 Lecture 8 - Effect of source inuctance on rectifier operation 8.1 Rectifier with input source inuctance The output DC voltage an current of rectifier circuits iscusse so far have been foun by assuming that ioe currents transfer (commutate) from one ioe to another instantaneously. However this can not happen when the AC source has some inuctance L s. (Change of current through any inuctance must take some time!). This source inuctance is associate with the leakage inuctance of the supply transformer an the inuctance of the AC supply network to the input transformer. The commutation process (or the overlap process) forces more than one ioe or a pair of ioes (in a brige rectifier) to conuct simultaneously, resulting in a rop of voltage from the output terminals which is proportional to the loa current. The output DC voltage V of a rectifier falls with loa current, by an amount which is much larger than aitional voltage rop across the conucting ioes when the current through the ioes increases. The AC source inuctance, which consists of the AC line an the input transformer leakage inuctances, is mostly responsible for the aitional voltage rop. Consier the half-wave ioe rectifier shown below. Let us assume that the loa current is smooth an ripple-free (i.e., of constant, ue to the highly inuctive loa). Assume also that for t > 0, the loa current flows Lecture 8 - Effect of overlap 1 F. Rahman

2 through the rectifier ioe an that for t >, it commutates to the free-wheeling ioe D f. This transfer of the loa current between the rectifier an the freewheeling ioes can not however be instantaneous, because of the source inuctance L s. This transfer takes place over a small commutation or overlap angle, uring which time, the current graually falls to zero in one circuit an it rises to in the other circuit at the same rate. Clearly, the two ioes conuct simultaneously uring the commutation process (). Because of the prolonge conuction of D f, the loa voltage is clampe to zero for 0 < t <, resulting in some loss of positive voltage in the v o waveform. Consequently V is reuce, the extent of which epens on, which in turn epens on L s an. Lecture 8 - Effect of overlap 2 F. Rahman

5 8.2 Overlap in a single-phase brige rectifier ue to source inuctance During the positive half cycle, ioes D1 an D4 carries the loa current. During the negative half cycle, ioes D3 an D2 carry the loa current. During overlap all four ioes carry the loa current. The output voltage uring overlap is zero an all of the supply voltage applies across the source inuctor L s. v o i p L s i s D 1 D 3 v s = V max sint v i V Loa N:1 D 2 D 4 Figure 8.4 Dioe brige rectifier with source inuctance Thus, uring commutation overlap, i 8.6 Vmax sin t Ls t Vmax sint( t) Ls i 2Ls I 0 2 L s cos 1 I V 8.7 max Lecture 8 - Effect of overlap 5 F.

9 Effect of overlap on three-phase center-tap rectifier In the three-phase, center-tap rectifier of figure 8.7, the loa current starts to commutate to ioe D2 after v b starts to become more positive than v a. This starts from /6 after the zero crossing of v b. During overlap, both ioes D1 an D2 carry the loa current which is assume to remain constant uring the process.

11 Thus, uring the commutation overlap, the converter output voltage v o is the average of the voltages of the lines unergoing commutation. Once the loa current is fully commutate, v o jumps up to the potential v b. Form the ieal output voltage waveform, the area boune by v b an (v a +v b )/2 is lost ue to overlap of two conucting ioes. In the following analysis, the line-neutral voltages are: van Vmax sint vbn Vmax sin t 2 /3 ; v V sin t 4 /3 cn ; max The part of the positive voltage pulse lost ue to overlap starting from angle t = /6 is given by v bn v bn v an v bn v an L i s 2 2 t 8.14 The area (shae) insie the voltage pulse lost ue to overlap is given by 6 vbn v an ( t ) Ls i LsI in which v bn has been taken as the reference waveform. Note that (v b - v a ) is the line-line voltage v ba. The integral on the right han sie can be evaluate by shifting the origin by /6 to the right, at the crossing of v bn an v an.

15 As before, uring each overlap, the positive an negative c buses have voltages which are average values of the commutating line-line potentials.
