6 A three-phase transistor voltage-source inverter supplies a three-phase load,
as shown in Fig.8.41. The load consists of star connected resistance of
10 in each phase. The inverter supply voltage is 200V d.c. and each
inverter switch conducts for 120°.

A three-phase bridge-inverter is fed from a d.c. source of 200 V. If the
load is star-connected of 10 02/phase pure resistance, determine the RMS
load current, the required RMS current rating of the thyristors and the load
power for (i) 120° firing, and (ii) 180° firing.
[Ans (i) 120° firing IL (rms) = 8.16 A, IT(rms) = 9.8 A. Load power = 2000 W.
(ii) 180° firing IL (rms) = 9.43 A, IT (rms) = 6.67 A. Load power = 2667 W.]
