A resistive heater is energized from 220Vrms, 50 Hz sinusoidal voltage source through a
transformer and controlled full wave rectifier as shown in the figure. The heating power
is adjusted by the delay angle of thyristors from zero to 1 kW. Transformer turns ratio is
defined as n=Npri:Nsec. The value of load resistor R is equal to
n:1
As1
As3
R=752_
All components are ideal.
a) Determine the transformer turns ratio n, and the thyristor delay angle a in order to
keep the secondary voltage (i.e. thyristor voltage stress) minimum at the maximum
power of 1kW.
b) Calculate the input rms current at maximum heating power.
