A controlled rectifier on thyristors - elements with a high power gain, allows you to get high currents in the load with little power spent in the thyristor control circuit. The first two figures show variants of thyristor-based rectifiers that provide a maximum current in the load up to 6 A with a voltage adjustment limit from 0 to 15 V (Fig. 1) and from 0,5 to 15 V (Fig. 2).

Powerful controlled rectifier on thyristors, 220 / 0,5-15 volts 6 amperes

During one half-cycle, a positive voltage relative to the cathode is applied to the anode of the thyristor. Until a positive signal of a certain amplitude is applied to the control electrode from the trigger circuit, the thyristor does not pass current in the forward direction. Through some arbitrary delay angle a, a positive trigger signal is applied between the voltages on the control electrode and the cathode, causing current to flow through the thyristor and, accordingly, through the load. When the polarity of the voltage on the anode of the thyristor is reversed, the latter closes regardless of the magnitude of the control voltage, while the other arm of the circuit begins to work similarly to that considered earlier. By adjusting the turn-on delay angle a with respect to the applied voltage, it is possible to change the phase ratio of the beginning of the current flow and the applied voltage and adjust the average value of the rectified load current (voltage) from maximum (a = 0) to zero (a = Pi).

The turn-on delay angle of thyristors D1 and D4 is changed by potentiometer R1. Diodes D2, D3 protect the value of control (start) from negative voltage at a time when the voltage at the anodes of the thyristors is negative. To obtain wide adjustment limits a (0 = Pi), RC circuits are used.

In the rectifier (Fig. 2), the thyristor and the trigger circuit operate both in positive and negative half-cycles, the capacitor discharge time is reduced, which leads to a decrease in the range of angle a and, accordingly, to a decrease in the voltage regulation limits on the load. To eliminate this phenomenon, diode D3 is included.

Thyristors for the rectifier (Fig. 1) it is desirable to choose with a close resistance value of the control electrode - cathode section. If it is not possible to select the same thyristors, then the circuit can be balanced using additional resistance. To do this, turn on the equivalent load and change the resistance value of the potentiometer R1 to set the maximum current. Turning off the thyristor control circuits one by one, the current of each rectifier arm is measured. Variable resistance of 10 com. connected in parallel to the control electrode to the cathode of the thyristor through which a larger current flows. By changing the value of this resistance, the same current readings are achieved.

Given the spread of thyristor parameters, it is necessary to correct the resistances of resistors R1 and R2. Initially, R1 is taken slightly larger than calculated, and R2 is determined as the residual resistance of the potentiometer R1, provided that its change does not increase the load current. The maximum value of R1 is limited by the resistance at which the load current is zero.

Structurally, thyristors must be placed on radiators with an area of ​​50 sq.cm (Fig. 1), 250 sq.cm - (Fig. 2). In all variants, a transformer assembled on a conventional USh35x55 core was used. For winding, a wire of the PEV brand was taken. The primary winding contains 550 turns, the wire diameter is 0,55 mm. Secondary winding data: for the option in Fig. 1 - the number of turns is 2x60 with a PEL wire with a diameter of 1,35 mm; for the option in Fig. 2 - the number of turns is 2x64 with a PEL wire with a diameter of 1,35 mm.

Machine for thinning flowers in gardens 02.05.2024

In modern agriculture, technological progress is developing aimed at increasing the efficiency of plant care processes. The innovative Florix flower thinning machine was presented in Italy, designed to optimize the harvesting stage. This tool is equipped with mobile arms, allowing it to be easily adapted to the needs of the garden. The operator can adjust the speed of the thin wires by controlling them from the tractor cab using a joystick. This approach significantly increases the efficiency of the flower thinning process, providing the possibility of individual adjustment to the specific conditions of the garden, as well as the variety and type of fruit grown in it. After testing the Florix machine for two years on various types of fruit, the results were very encouraging. Farmers such as Filiberto Montanari, who has used a Florix machine for several years, have reported a significant reduction in the time and labor required to thin flowers. ... >>

Advanced Infrared Microscope 02.05.2024

Microscopes play an important role in scientific research, allowing scientists to delve into structures and processes invisible to the eye. However, various microscopy methods have their limitations, and among them was the limitation of resolution when using the infrared range. But the latest achievements of Japanese researchers from the University of Tokyo open up new prospects for studying the microworld. Scientists from the University of Tokyo have unveiled a new microscope that will revolutionize the capabilities of infrared microscopy. This advanced instrument allows you to see the internal structures of living bacteria with amazing clarity on the nanometer scale. Typically, mid-infrared microscopes are limited by low resolution, but the latest development from Japanese researchers overcomes these limitations. According to scientists, the developed microscope allows creating images with a resolution of up to 120 nanometers, which is 30 times higher than the resolution of traditional microscopes. ... >>

Air trap for insects 01.05.2024

Agriculture is one of the key sectors of the economy, and pest control is an integral part of this process. A team of scientists from the Indian Council of Agricultural Research-Central Potato Research Institute (ICAR-CPRI), Shimla, has come up with an innovative solution to this problem - a wind-powered insect air trap. This device addresses the shortcomings of traditional pest control methods by providing real-time insect population data. The trap is powered entirely by wind energy, making it an environmentally friendly solution that requires no power. Its unique design allows monitoring of both harmful and beneficial insects, providing a complete overview of the population in any agricultural area. “By assessing target pests at the right time, we can take necessary measures to control both pests and diseases,” says Kapil ... >>
