Excess Work Due to Thyristor 1 in Chopper Circuit
Go Excess Work = 0.5*Limiting Inductance*((Output Current+(Reverse Recovery Time*Capacitor Commutation Voltage)/Limiting Inductance)-Output Current^2)
Critical Inductance
Go Inductance = Load Voltage^2*((Source Voltage-Load Voltage)/(2*Chopping Frequency*Source Voltage*Load Power))
Energy Released by Inductor to Load
Go Energy Released = (Output Voltage-Input Voltage)*((Current 1+Current 2)/2)*Circuit Turn Off Time
Energy Input to Inductor from Source
Go Energy Input = Source Voltage*((Current 1+Current 2)/2)*Chopper On Time
Critical Capacitance
Go Critical Capacitance = (Output Current/(2*Source Voltage))*(1/Maximum Frequency)
Maximum Ripple Current Resistive Load
Go Ripple Current = Source Voltage/(4*Inductance*Chopping Frequency)
AC Ripple Voltage
Go Ripple Voltage = sqrt(RMS Voltage^2-Load Voltage^2)
Ripple Factor of DC Chopper
Go Ripple Factor = sqrt((1/Duty Cycle)-Duty Cycle)
Chopping Period
