Basic thought process of time-domain Basic thought process of time-domain analysis for power electronic circuitsanalysis for power electronic circuits

The time-domain behavior of a power electronic The time-domain behavior of a power electronic circuit is actually the combination of consecutive circuit is actually the combination of consecutive transients of the different linear circuits when the transients of the different linear circuits when the power semiconductor devices are in different states.power semiconductor devices are in different states.

When analyzing a thyristor circuit, start from a diode When analyzing a thyristor circuit, start from a diode circuit with the same topology. The behavior of the circuit with the same topology. The behavior of the diode circuit is exactly the same as the thyristor circuit diode circuit is exactly the same as the thyristor circuit when firing angle is 0. when firing angle is 0. A power electronic circuit can be considered as A power electronic circuit can be considered as different linear circuits when the power semiconductor different linear circuits when the power semiconductor devices are in different states.

Review of the reactive power conceptReview of the reactive power concept

The reactive power The reactive power Q Q does not lead to net transmission of enerdoes not lead to net transmission of energy between the source and load. When gy between the source and load. When Q Q 0, the rms current 0, the rms current and apparent power are greater than the minimum amount necand apparent power are greater than the minimum amount necessary to transmit the average power P.essary to transmit the average power P.

Inductor: current lags voltage by 90°, hence displacement factInductor: current lags voltage by 90°, hence displacement factor is zero. The alternate storing and releasing of energy in an ior is zero. The alternate storing and releasing of energy in an inductor leads to current flow and nonzero apparent power, but nductor leads to current flow and nonzero apparent power, but P P = = 0. Just as resistors consume real (average) power P, indu0. Just as resistors consume real (average) power P, inductors can be viewed as consumers of reactive power Q.ctors can be viewed as consumers of reactive power Q.

Capacitors supply reactive power Q. They are often placed in the utility power distribution system near inductive en placed in the utility power distribution system near inductive loads. If loads. If Q Q supplied by capacitor is equal to supplied by capacitor is equal to Q Q consumed by indconsumed by inductor, then the net current (flowing from the source into the capuctor, then the net current (flowing from the source into the capacitor-inductive-load combination) is in phase with the voltage, acitor-inductive-load combination) is in phase with the voltage, leading to unity power factor and minimum rms current magnitleading to unity power factor and minimum rms current magnitude.ude.
