Three single phase half wave converters can be connected to form a three phase half wave converter.
Similarly three phase semi converter uses 3 SCRs T1, T3 & T5 and 3 diodes D2, D4&D6 In the circuit
shown above when any device conducts, line voltage is applied across load. so line voltage are necessary
to draw Phase shift between two line voltages is 60 degree & between two phase voltages it is 120 degree
Each phase & line voltage is sine wave with the frequency of 50 Hz.
R,Y,B are phase voltages with respect to ‗N‘.
In the case of a three-phase half wave controlled rectifier with resistive load, the thyristor T 1 is
triggered at ωt=(30°+α)and T 1 conducts up to ωt=180°=&pron; radians. When the phase supply
voltage decreases to zero at , the load current falls to zero and the thyristor T 1 turns off.
Thus T 1 conducts from ωt=(30° + α) to (180°).
Hence the average dc output voltage for a 3-pulse converter (3-phase half wave controlled
rectifier) is calculated by using the equation

1. The speed of a separately excited dc motors is controlled by a three phase semi converter from a
three phase 415V 50Hz supply. The motor constants are inductance 10mH, resistance 0.9Ω and
armature constant 1.5 v-s/rad. Calculate the speed of the motor at a torque of 50Nmwhen
converter is fired at 450. Neglect losses in the converter
Kaɸ = 1.5 v-s/rad
T= KaɸIa = 50Nm
Ia = 50/1.5 = 33.33A

2. A 600V, 1500rpm, 80A separately excited dc motor is fed through a three- phase semi converter
from 3-phase400supply. Motor armature resistance is 1 Ω the armature current assumed constant.
For a firing angle of 450 at 1200rpm ,compute the rms value of source and thyristor currents,
average value of thyristor current and the input supply power factor
