The single-phase half-wave controlled rectifier circuit shown is connected to a 120 V, 60 Hz power source and is supplying a pure resistive load with R = 10 ?. If the trigger angle of the thyristor is ? = ?/2, determine the following: a) Rectification efficiency b) Form factor (FF) c) Ripple factor (RF) d) Transformer utilization factor (TUF) e) The reverse peak voltage value of the thyristor. Solve question 4 again for ? = ?/3 and compare the results for analysis.
