Problem# 3
A single-phase semi-converter using thyristors is operated from a 120-V 60-Hz
supply. The load current is assumed is continuous with negligible ripple content. the
If the firing angle is a = 60°, calculate the
(a) THD of the input current;
(b) Displacement power factor;
(c) Total power factor
Problem#4
Repeat problem# 3 for a single phase full-converter.
