Why is the direction of diodes in alternator diode trio is opposite to the direction of diodes in the rectifier bridge?
A three phase alternator will have six diodes in the rectifier bridge, three with their anodes connected to the phases, and cathodes commoned to the positive terminal, and three with the cathodes connected to the phases, and anodes commoned to the negative terminal, which is likely the housing of the alternator. The trio diodes arrangement will match the positive rectifiers, i.e. anodes to the phase connections, cathodes (denoted usually by a stripe around the body on small diodes), connected to the D+ terminal

Which rectifier has good efficiency?
bridge rectifier is the best rectifier.
What does the current equals in a bridge rectifier?
In a bridge rectifier, the current output is the same as the input AC current during the positive half-cycle of the AC waveform. However, during the negative half-cycle, the diodes in the bridge configuration allow current to flow in the same direction, effectively converting AC to DC. The output current can be influenced by the load connected to the rectifier and may vary based on the input voltage and the characteristics of the rectifier circuit.
Why bridge rectifier is prefer over center type rectifier for low voltage applications?
there is no need of bulky centre tap in a bridge rectifier. TUF(transformer utilisation factor) is considerably high. output is not grounded. diodes of a bridge rectifier are readily available in market. *the PIV(peak inverse voltage) for diodes in a bridge rectifier are only halfof that for a centre tapped full wave rectifier,which is of great advantage.
What is the use of bridge rectifier?
Most of the circuits comprising of electronic components run on dc supply.. As DC supply is not available directly for us, we use either 230/12V or 230/18V transformer to stepdown the available 230V (in some countries it is 110v) and then convert it into dc using a rectifier. As a bridge rectifier is more efficient than a conventional full wave rectifier, about 81.2%, it is widely used in such type of circuits.
Can you give 230V ac directly to bridge rectifier?
Yes, if the diodes that the bridge rectifier are rated for 230V in forward and reverse voltages. Normally you can do a search for the part number on the internet and get specs there.
How do you take both ac and DC from car alternator?
An Alternator produces AC (the clue is in the name) Alternating Current.Add in a Bridge rectifier, and it produces DC (Direct current).Basically the alternator "alternates" or switches the voltage, and the rectifier switches the opposite way, in perfect time, turnign the AC into DC.
Rectifiers used for most larger alternator systems are which ones?
a full-wave bridge rectifier
How many diodes in a bridge rectifier?
Bridge Rectifier DiodesIn a "bridge" rectifier there is 4 diodes In a "full wave" there are 2 diodes.In a "half wave" rectifier there is 1 diode.

What are merits and demerits of bridge rectifier?

Where is the voltage regulator located on 88 Mazda 323 1.6 injection non turbo?
To the best of my knowledge, both the bridge rectifier and the voltage regulator are integrated into the alternator... I recently bought a refurbished alternator and the spec sheet referred to things like ripple current verification (bridge rectifier) and like regulator voltage verification which imply that both of these blocks are part of the regulator...
What does the current equals in a bridge rectifier?
In a bridge rectifier, the current output is the same as the input AC current during the positive half-cycle of the AC waveform. However, during the negative half-cycle, the diodes in the bridge configuration allow current to flow in the same direction, effectively converting AC to DC. The output current can be influenced by the load connected to the rectifier and may vary based on the input voltage and the characteristics of the rectifier circuit.
When a car is running is the current ac or DC?
AC (alternating current) is produced in the the alternator. It is converted to DC (direct current) in the alternator by a configuration of diodes called a bridge rectifier. The remainder of the electrical system is DC.
Is there any application where center tap rectifier is preferred over bridge rectifier?
For a center tapped full wave rectifier transformer secondary gives a voltage that is 2Vm. For a bridge rectifier it is Vm.
Which type of rectifier has the greatest output voltage for the same input voltage and trasformer turns ratio?
Bridge Rectifier
