All the thyristor unIts when are in conduction produces power loss that dissipate inside cabinet in term of heating. Due to this fact the internal temperature of cabinet is higher than ambient temperature. Here you can find some... more
A microcomputer, the Altair 8800, was used to generate the gating signals for a single-phase-to-single-phase cycloconverter, keeping the same firing angle on all thyristors for a particular output voltage and frequency. The power circuit... more
This paper proposes a new configuration to help a GTO to achieve unity turn-off gain and snubberless turn-off capability by utilizing a series connected discrete diode. The maximum turn-off gate voltage, which is crucial for realizing a... more
The main aim of this work is to damp out power system oscillations, which has been recognized as one of the major concerns in power system operation. In a Static Synchronous Series Co mpensator (SSSC), a controllable A C voltage is... more
Series compensation of transmission lines using fixed series capacitors can cause sub-synchronous resonance (SSR) between electrical and mechanical systems. This phenomenon leads to severe damages to turbine generator shafts. Thyristor... more
A method for determining parameters for a two-transistor SCR model from SCR specification sheet data developed by Hu and Ki (1979) for use with the CAD program SPICE2 was examined. The model was found to need improvement in order to... more
