What is the relationship of the input frequency and output frequency in a FULL-wave rectifier?

The frequency of a full-wave rectifier is double that of the input, if the input is a sine wave or triangle wave. If the input is a square wave, the output is DC. If the input is a sawtooth wave, the output is a triangle wave of the same frequency.


What happens when you lose an input phase on a three phase bridge rectifier?

If the rectifier is wye connected, ripple will increase. If it is delta connected, ripple will substantially increase. Whether or not the rest of the rectifier, filter, and regulator are damaged will depend on how much current is being pulled by whats left, and by how deep the ripple actually becomes.


Why does the output frequency of a full wave rectifier double that of input frequency?

One cycle of the AC input consists of a positive half-cycle followed be a negative half cycle. The FW rectifier basically reverses the polarity of one of the half-cycles, so there are now two positive pulses per single input cycle, effectively doubling the frequency. Of course the rectifier may be wired for the opposite polarity, with two negative pulses per input cycle, but the same principle applies.


What is ripple voltage in 12 volt power supply?

A: Ripple is a residual voltage evident as voltage following the AC input frequency. The ripple magnitude is a function of not enough of both filtering capacitance or overloading the output. Increasing capacitance will reduce the ripple or reducing the loading


What is the effect in output for changing input frequency in halfwave rectifier?

if filtered and loaded the average DC voltage will increase and the ripple AC voltage will decrease, but the peak voltage is unchanged. this is because the filter capacitor has less time to discharge into the load.if unfiltered or unloaded the voltage cannot change. unfiltered the waveform just follows the half cycle of the input. if filtered but unloaded the output is DC at the peak voltage of the input AC.

What is the lowest ripple frequency of half wave rectifier?

The ripple frequency of a half-wave rectifier is the same as the input frequency.


What is ripple frequency of 50 Hz 3 phase full ac supply?

A single phase half wave rectifier outputs ripple the same frequency as the input. A single phase full wave rectifier outputs ripple fundamental twice the input frequency (assuming balanced recitfiers). A three phase full wave rectifier outputs ripple fundamental six times the input frequency. So 50 Hz input would yield 300 Hz ripple. See Sources and Related Links for more information.

How could you measure ripple frequency to determine if a diode were open in a bridge rectifier circuit?

Measuring ripple frequency would determine if a diode were open in a bridge rectifier circuit because the ripple frequency is normally twice the input frequency in a functioning full wave bridge rectifier. If one diode were open, the ripple frequency would only be the input frequency. Note: This is true for single phase or bi-phase operation. Three phase operation is more complex, but still doable - You would expect three times input frequency in normal state, and two times (asymmetric) with one open diode.


What is output frequency of bridge rectifier?

twice the input frequency


When a 60 Hz voltage is applied to the input of half wave rectifier what is input freequency?

The relationship of the input frequency and output frequency in a half-wave rectifier is one-to-one.(For full-wave, its one-to-two.)The shape won't be the same, as the rectifier will only pass alternate half-cycles, but the apparent frequency will be the same.


If input frequency of a full wave rectifier be n then uotput frequency would be?

What is the importance of ripple factor?

Ripple factor ripple factor is very important in deciding the efficiency of the rectifier .ripple factor give the total power converted AC input to the DC output. Ideal ripple factor should be zero and power factor 1. Ripple factor of half wave rectifier 1.21 and full wave rectifier is 0.48.


What is the equation for calculating 3-phase full wave rectifier voltage?

Following is the Voltage calculation for a 3 Phase Full wave rectifier bridge circuit with 6 diodes: Vac rms (Ph-Ph input) = 2pi / 3√2 x Vdc (output) Vac rms (Ph-Ph input) = 0.74 x Vdc (output) Hope that helps :) Regards, Syed
