Question 1

What will be the peak current through main thyristor in a voltage commutated chopper circuit if the source voltage is 250V with constant load current of 10A and L=0.2mH and C= 20 µF?

Question 2

In the given chopper circuit, when the switch is held open, the inductor current :

Question 3

The given figure shows a step-down dc chopper. A freewheeling diode is placed across the load. The load current varies between 9A to 15A. The value of resistance is 5Ω then time ratio would be

Question 4

A step-up chopper is used to feed a load at 400 V dc from a 250 V dc source. The inductor current is continuous. If the ‘off’ time of the switch is 20μs, the switching frequency of the chopper is kHz is __________.

Question 5

For type A chopper circuit with dc supply voltage 230 V , chopping period T = 1800 Ns, on period = 500 Ns ; load circuit parameters : R=1 , L=5mH & E=24 V, the duty cycle ‘δ’ where the limit of continuous current conduction is reached will be

Question 6

The circuit in the figure is a current commutated dc – dc chopper where. ThM is the main SCR and ThAUX is the auxiliary SCR. The load current is constant at 10 A. ThM is ON. ThAUX is triggered at t = 0. ThM is turned OFF between
