Six pulse bridge converter: The conduction time of a thyristor in a six pulse connection can be increased when the converter is obtained by a series or parallel connection of…

Six pulse midpoint converter: The converter transformer converts the existing three phase system to a six phase one, since it has six secondary windings. The Six pulse midpoint converter connections…

Three pulse midpoint converter: These are basically three-phase converters, and are very popular because a 3-phase supply is readily available. 3-phase converters have a greater power capability than single phase…

Phase Controlled Line Commutated Converters: In these Phase Controlled Line Commutated Converters, the commutation voltage, i.e. the voltage required to transfer current from one thyristor to the other, is provided…

Electric Converter: Electric Converter - The speed of a dc motor can be varied by varying the armature voltage or the field current, for which a variable dc supply is…
