9.1 A single-phase bridge inverter delivers power to a series connected RLC load with R = 2W and
wL = 10W. The periodic time T = 0.1 msec. What value of C should the load have in order to
obtain load commutation for the SCRs. The thyristor turn-off time is 10 msec. Take circuit turn-
off time as 1.5 tq. Assume that load current contains only fundamental component.
Sol. Value of C should be such that RLC load is underdamped. Moreover, when load voltage passes
through zero, the load current must pass through zero before the voltage wave, i.e. the load
current must lead the load voltage by an angle q as shown in Fig. E 9.1

As the current is leading voltage, hence XC > XL.
Now q | w | must be at least equal to circuit turn-off time. i.e.,

25 ms.
Sol. Given: C = 25 mF, L = 25 mH,
ILmax = 150 A toff = 25 msec, Edc = 230 V,

Since calculated toff is less than 50 ms, hence circuit will not provide reliable commutation.
