Usually these devices will conduct during an AC phase cycles to charge a capacitor to produce DC.
A thyristor is a semiconductor device which acts as a switch.
The transistor allows you to turn it off when you want, while the thyristor, or SCR, will not turn off until the anode-cathode voltage drops below the cutoff voltage.
No because a mosfet does not work the same as a thyristor. In a thyristor the current flows even when the gate pulse is removed, until the current stops. That is not the case for a FET.
There are more than two conditions that can make a thyristor conduct, but the general (functional) ones are: 1) positive voltage form anode to cathode, and 2) a positive voltage on the trigger input (referenced to the cathode) for a standard polarity thyristor. Other conditions can be: A) Anode-Cathode Voltage exceeding thyristor witholding voltage. B) Overtemperature of the thyristor chip C) Faulty thyristor (can be caused by overloads)
A thyristor if conducting will have a very small voltage drop across if not then the rail voltage will be evident across the device

Applications of Thyristor(SCR): it is used for temperature control of furnace, in resistance welding as line contactor and in heat control, in electronic ignition of automobiles, in poly phase rectifiers and inverters and in choppers etc...
Thyristor is a kind fast acting switch. These are fully controlled switches
The transistor allows you to turn it off when you want, while the thyristor, or SCR, will not turn off until the anode-cathode voltage drops below the cutoff voltage.
Types of thyristor firing art
The possessive form of the plural noun inverters is inverters'.
The modules cover different areas of business processes.
It is a module or Assembly to describe its sole function
i think i know this answer...line commutation is the commutation in single phase inverters/converters when there is current flow back to the source.. It can also refer to a method of turning of a semiconductor device known as a Thyristor or SCR, sometimes called natural commutation. In this method the current between the anode and cathode is interrupted or dropped to a point where the Thyristor can no longer maintain its latch or keep conducting, shutting the device off.
not a clue a A: It all depends on the thyristor. There are no calculation involved not until you look up the thyristor specifications and decide on the load of the thyristor then you may calculate or more likely choose.
The turn off and turn off mechanism of a thyristor can be best explained by the gate turn-off thyristor. The thyristor uses the reverse bias mechanism.
Basically there are three types of inverters 1) Square wave Inverters 2) Quasi Square wave or Modified Square wave Inverters 3) True/Pure Sine wave Inverters The emerging trend among Inverters could be titled to Multi-Level Inverters which aim at the Increasing of Inverter Efficiency along with reduced Inverter Cost
