MTECH POWER ELECTRONICS
THEORY:
A rectifier is an electrical device that converts alternating current (AC)
to direct current (DC), which flows in only one direction.A full-wave
rectifier converts the whole of the input waveform to one of constant
polarity (positive or negative) at its output. Full-wave rectification
converts both polarities of the input waveform to pulsating DC (direct
current), and yields a higher average output voltage.
The above circuit diagram is a full wave rectifier with a load
filter.Assume that the value of Ce is very large so that its voltage is
ripple free with an average value of Vo..L is the total inductance the
sorce or line inductance and is generally placed at the input side to act as
an inductance instead of DC choke.

THEORY:
A single phase half wave controlled converter only has one SCR is
employed in the circuit. The performance of the controlled rectifier very much
depends upon the type and parameters of the output (load) circuit.
The simulation circuit of the half wave converter is shown in fig (1) during the
positive half-cycle of input voltage, the thyristor anode voltage is positive with
respect to cathode and the thyristor is said to be forward biased. When thyristor T1
is fired at wt=α, thyristor T1 is conducts and input voltage appears the load. When
the input voltage starts to be negative at wt=∏, the thyristor anode is negative with
respect to cathode and thyristor is said to be reverse biased; and it is turned off.
40
MTECH POWER ELECTRONICS
The time after the input voltage starts to go positive until the thyristor is fired is
called the delay or firing angle α.
The simulation waveforms of input voltage, output voltage and load current are
shown in fig. This converter is not used in industrial applications because its output
has high ripple content and low ripple frequency.
Note: Both the output voltage and input current non-sinusoidal. The performance
of the controlled rectifier can be measured by the distortion factor (DF), total
harmonic distortion (THD), PF, transformer utilization factor (TUF), and harmonic
factor.

SIMULATE BUCK AND BOOST CONVERTER WITH
OPEN LOOP OPERATION
AIM: To study the simulation of buck and boost conveter with open
loop operation using matlab - simulink.
APPARATUS: 1. MATLAB Software
CIRCUIT DIAGRAM:
61
MTECH POWER ELECTRONICS
THEORY:
DC converters can be used as switching mode regulators to convert a dc
voltage normally unregulated to a regulated dc output voltage. Regulation is
normally achieved by PWM at fixed frequency and switching deive is normally
BJT,MOSFET and IGBT .Switching regualtors are comercially available as
integrated circuits.
Buck and Boost converters are the types of switching mode regulators.
In Buck regulator the average output voltage Va is lessthan the input
voltageVs.It acts as step down converter.Ciruit operation is divided into two
modes. First mode begins when transistor is switched ON at t=0, the input current
which rises flows through filterinductor L ,filter capacitor C and load resistor R.
Second begins when transistor is switched OFF at t=t1.The freewheeling diode Dm
conducts due to energy stored in inductor and inductor current continues to flow
through L,C and load and diode Dm.
In Boost regulator the output voltage is greater than the input voltage.It acts
as a stepup Converter.Circuit operation is divided into two modes.First mode
begins when transistor is switched ON at t=0, the input current which rises flows
through inductor L and transistor. Second begins when transistor is switched OFF
at t=t1. The current that flowing through transistor would now flow through L, C
,Load and diode Dm.

DIGITAL FILTER
AIM: To study the simulation of Digital Filter using matlab - simulink.
APPARATUS: 1. MATLAB Software
CIRCUIT DIAGRAM:
98
MTECH POWER ELECTRONICS
THEORY:
In signal processing, a digital filter is a system that performs
mathematical operations on a sampled, discrete-time signal to reduce or
enhance certain aspects of that signal. This is in contrast to the other
major type of electronic filter, the analog filter, which is anelectroni
circuit operating on continuous-time analog signals
A digital filter system usually consists of an analog-to-digital
converter to sample the input signal, followed by a microprocessor and
some peripheral components such as memory to store data and filter
coefficients etc. Finally a digital-to-analog converter to complete the
output stage.
Infinite impulse response (IIR) is a property applying to many linear
time-invariant systems. Common examples of linear time-invariant
systems are most electronic and digital filters. Systems with this
property are known as IIR systems or IIR filters, and are distinguished by
having an impulse response which does not become exactly zero past a
certain point, but continues indefinitely. This is in contrast to a finite
impulse response in which the impulse response h(t) does become
exactly zero at times t > T for some finite T, thus being of finite duration.

4. Firing circuit
CIRCUIT OPERATION:
This unit is based on 8085 microprocessor chip. This unit generates two line
synchronized triggering pulses.RPM can be set through key board of the unit.
Firing pulses generated are based on 8253 programmable interval timer.8253 is
assigned to work in mode 5.Counter 2 of 8253 are used to generate firing pulses.
The unit is programmed to adjust its firing angle. The effect can be seen by
connecting CRO across the terminals of the motor.
The tachogenerator attached to the shaft of the motor converts rpm to DC
voltage. This voltage is sensed by microprocessor. The system generates firing
pulses to keep rpm of the motor constant. The circuit diagrams and programs are
provided with this manual. The analog voltage corresponding to rpm is converted
digital voltage by ADC 0809.Then the system compares the running RPM with the
set RPM by look up table. If the running speed less than the set speed then the
firing angle is decreased by one degree & if the running speed is more than the set
speed then the firing angle is increased by one degree. The system is keep on
comparing the set speed and running speed.
8253 configuration:
System is working with the clock frequency of 6.144 MHz This frequency is
internally divided by two in 8085 microprocessor chip. Therefore 3.072 MHz clock
is generated. This frequency is again divided by two internally. Therefore 1.536
MHz clock is generated.

(π+α), the input voltage in negative and free wheeling diode Df is forward biased,
Df conducts to provide the continuity of current in the inductive load. the load
current is transferred from T1 and D1 to Df, and thyristor T1 and D1 are turned off
at ωt=π.During negative half cycle of input voltage, thyristor T2 is forward biased,
and the firing of T2 at ωt=π+αwill reverse bias Df.The diode Df is turned off and
the load connected to the supply through T2 and D2.
When the load is inductive and T1 is triggered, first it will conduct with D1 to pass
current through load. When the supply voltage is negative load emf will drive
current through T1D2.This is an exponentially decreasing current. When the new
negative half cycle begins T1 is in conduction and it would keep on conducting
with D1 as if triggered at ωt=0.In this case load may not receive the D.C power. To
ensure proper operation, at the beginning of positive half cycle T2 has turned off
and similarly T1 should be turned off when negative half cycle begins. This is
achieved by the free wheeling diode.
For R-L load with freewheeling diode the average output voltage can be found

CLOSED LOOP CONTROL OF DC MOTOR USING
FOUR QUADRANT CHOPPER DRIVE
INTRODUCTION:
Closed loop dc motor speed control using four quadrant chopper drive
presented here is based on popular 8085 microprocessor chip. Using this
instrument we can set RPM of the motor upto 1590rpm in steps of 10rpm. The
motor will come to its set rpm within delay time irrespective in the variation of
supply voltage and load.
CHOPPER:
The chopper is used to convert a dc voltage of fixed amplitude to the DC of
variable pulse width. The output voltage is controlled by controlling the duty cycle
of the chopper. These choppers find applications in variable voltage DC power
supplies, battery chargers, electric traction etc.

Drive is operated in I and II quadrant. In the reverse rotation of the motor chopper
operates in the III and IV quadrant.
During forward rotation of the motor the chopper operates in forward motoring
(E1.)(I quadrant)& forward regenerative braking (II quadrant) mode. During
reverse rotation of the motor the chopper operates in reverse motoring (E3)(III
quadrant) & reverse regenerative braking (IV quadrant ) mode. The direction of the
motor can be changed from forward direction to reverse direction immediately by
pressing key 1 or 3 from the keyboard. However it is recommended to reverse the
motor by reducing the supply voltage and then reset the voltage to avoid large
reverse current at the time of reversing.
8255 CONFIGURATION:
8255A is used to read the content of ADC 0809.ADC 0809 read the output
of speed sensor and converts it into the digital voltage. Digital signals are input to
PORT A of 8255. ADC starts conversion by sensing output signal from 8255A to
SOC line through PC3. Analog signal is input to 0809 by channel1 by selecting
channel 1 through PC2, PC1, and PC0 (000). End of conversion is sensed by PC7.
PORT A is input PORT for Data transfer
PORT B is output PORT to generate triggering pulses.
PORT C LOWER is output PORT to select analog input line Io and to start
conversion.

operated. When CH1, CH4 are ON, motor voltage is positive and positive
armature current rises. When CH1 is turned off, positive armature operation in first
quadrant is obtained.
Forward regenerative breaking mode (II quadrant): A dc motor can work
in the regenerative-breaking mode only if motor generated emf is made to exceed
the dc source voltage. For obtaining this mode CH1, CH3, and CH4 are kept off
whereas CH2 is operated. When CH2 is turned on, negative armature current rises
through CH2, D4, Ea, La, and Ra. When CH2 is turned OFF, diodes D1, D4 are
turned on the motor acting as a generator returning energy to dc source. This
results in forward regenerative-breaking mode in the second-quadrant.
Reverse motoring mode (III quadrant): This operating mode is opposite to
forward motoring mode. Chopper CH1, CH4 are kept off. CH2 is kept on whereas
CH3 is operated. When CH3 and CH2 are on, armature gets connected to source
voltage Vs so that both armature voltage and armature current ia is negative. As
armature current is reversed, motor torque reversed and consequently motoring
mode in third quadrant is obtained. When CH3 is turned off, negative armature
current freewheels through CH2, D4, Ea, La, Ra; armature current decreases and
thus speed control is obtained in third quadrant. Note that during this mode polarity
of Ea is opposite to that shown in fig.
Reverse Regenerative-breaking mode: As in forward braking mode,
reverse regenerative braking mode is feasible only if motor generated emf is made
to exceed the source voltage. For this operating mode, CH1, CH2 and CH3 are
kept off whereas CH4 is operated. When CH4 is turned on, positive armature
current ia rises through CH4, D2, Ra, La, Ea. When CH4 is turned off, diodes D2,
D3 begin to conduct and motor acting as generator returns energy to dc source.
This leads to reverse regenerative-braking operation of the dc separately excited
motor in fourth quadrant.

CLOSED LOOP OF DC MOTOR USING THREE PHASE
FED FOUR QUADRANT CHOPPER DRIVE
INTRODUCTION:
Closed loop dc motor speed control unit presented here is based on PID
controller & four quadrant chopper power circuit. The motor will come to its rpm
within few seconds irrespective in the variation of load. The PID trainer is to study
the characteristics of the feedback control circuit. The speed of the DC motor is
controlled by the PID (proportional integral and derivative) controller method. The
output of the controller then adjusts the value of each variable in the control system
until is it equal to predetermined value called a set point. The system controller
must maintain each variable as close as possible to its point value and it must
compensate as quickly and accurately as possible for any change in the variable
caused by the motor.
The chopper is used to convert a DC voltage of fixed amplitude to the DC of
variable pulse width. The output voltage is controlled by controlling the duty cycle
of the chopper. These choppers find application in variable speed DC motor
controls, DC power supplies, battery chargers, electric traction etc. four quadrant
choppers having applications in reversible motor drive. 3 phase AC is converted
into DC by isolation transformer and diode rectifier. The rectified output is fed to
four quadrant chopper as DC input.
DESCRIPTION OF THE SETUP:
The setup consists of DC motor 0.5HP, 220V, 1500rpm whose speed has to
be controlled in closed loop control using PID controller & IGBT drive. Firing
circuit is based on PID controller & power circuit is based on four quadrant

CIRCUIT OPERATION:
This speed control unit is based on PID controller. This unit generates four
triggering pulses. RPM can be set through knob provided on the unit. The unit is
programmed to adjust its duty cycle. The unit generates four chopper triggering
pulses CH1, CH2, CH3 & CH4. RPM can set through knob of the unit. Triggering
pulses are generated to operate the chopper in all for quadrants. The unit
programmed to adjust its firing pulse width keeping frequency constant.
The feedback sensor (proximity detector) attached to the shaft of the motor is
magnetic sensor. The sensor output goes high whenever metal screw comes near
the switch. The sensor output is connected to the voltage to frequency converts.
The output voltage of the F/V converter is proportional to running rpm. Then the
system compares the running RPM with the set RPM. If running speed is less than
the set speed then the duty cycle is increased& if the running speeds more than the
set speed then the duty is decreased. The system is keeps on comparing the set
speed and running speed. In the forward rotation of the motor chopper drive is
operated in 1 and 2 quadrant. In the reverse rotation of the motor chopper operates
in the 3 and 4 quadrant.
During forward rotation of the motor the chopper operates in forward
motoring (1quadrant) &forward regenerative breaking (2quadrant) mode. During
reverse rotation of the motor the chopper operates in reverse motoring (3quadrant)
&reverse regenerative breaking (4quadrant) mode.
THEORY:
chopper converts fixed DC voltage to variable DC voltage through the use of
semiconductor devices. The DC to DC converters have gained popularity in the
modern industry. Some practical applications of DC to DC converter include
armature voltage control of DC motors converting one DC voltage level to another
level, and controlling DC power for wide variety of industrial processes. The time
ratio controller (TRC) is a form of control for DC to DC conversion.
In four quadrant dc chopper drives, a motor can be made to work in
forward-motoring mode (1quadrant), forward regenerative breaking mode
(2quadrant), reverse motoring mode (3quadrant) and reverse regenerative breaking
mode (4quadranet).the circuit shown offers four quadrant operation of a separately-
excited dc motor. This circuit consists of 3 phase fed diode rectifier, four choppers,
124
MTECH POWER ELECTRONICS
four diodes and a separately-excited dc motor. Its operation in the four quadrants
can be explained as under.
Forward motoring mode (1quadrant): during this mode or first-quadrant
operation, chopper CH2, CH3 are kept off, CH4 is kept on whereas CH1 is
operated. When CH1, CH4 are on, motor voltage is positive and positive armature
current rises. When CH1 is turned off, positive armature current free-wheels and
decreases as it flows through CH4, D2.In this manner controlled operation in 1 st
quadrant is obtained.
Forward regenerative breaking mode (II quadrant): a dc motor can work in the
regenerative-breaking mode only if motor generated emf is made to exceed the dc
source voltage. For obtaining this mode CH1, CH3 and CH4 are kept off whereas
CH2 is operated. When CH2 is turned on, negative armature current rises through
CH2, D4, Ea, La, Ra. When CH2 is turned off, diodes D1, D4 are turned on and
the motor acting as a generator returning energy to dc source. This results in
forward regenerative-breaking mode in the second-quadrant.
Reverse motoring mode (III quadrant): This operating mode is opposite to forward
motoring mode. Chopper CH1, CH4 are kept off, CH2 is kept on where as CH3 is
operated. When CH3 and CH2 are on, armature gets connected to source voltage
Vs so that both armature and voltage armature current Ia is negative. As armature
current is reverse, motor torque reversed and consequently motoring mode In third
quadrant is obtained. When CH3 is turned off, negative armature current free
wheels through CH2 , D4, Ea, La, Ra, armature current decreases and thus sped
controlling obtained in 3rd quadrant. Note that during this mode polarity of Ea is
opposite to that shown in figure.
Reverse regenerative –braking mode: As in forward braking mode, reverse
regenerative-braking mode is feasible only if motor generated emf is made to
exceed the source voltage. For this operating mode, CH1, CH2 and CH3 are kept
off where as CH4 operator is operated. When CH4 is turn on, positive armature
current Ia rises through CH4, D2 Ra, La, Ea. When CH4 is turn off, diodes D2, D3
begin to conduct and motor acting as generator return energy to dc source. The
leads to reverse regenerative – braking operation of the DC separately exited motor
in 4Th quadrant.

power at a different frequency with one stage conversion. Basically,
cycloconverter are of two types namely:
1) Step down Cylcoconverter &
2) Step up Cycloconverter.
In Step-down cycloconverter, the output frequency fo is lower than the supply
frequency fo.In step-up cycloconverter, the output frequency fo is more than the
supply frequency fo. Step-down cycloconverter are discussed in this experiment.
Single phase cylcoconverter consists of a power module and a firing unit. Power
module is the combination of four SCRs and a step-down transformer. The
thysristors are mounted on individual heat sinks and protected by fast
semiconductor fuses. A well designed snubber circuit is provided for dv/dt
protection.
All the terminals of the power module are brought out to from panel through
BTI-15 terminals for connection purposes.
Firing unit generates four line synchronised firing pulses to trigger thyristors of
single phase ac voltage controller power circuit. Firing circuit is based on ramp
generator, comparator, pulse generator, pulse amplification & pulse triggering
method. Gate pulses are taken out through isolation pulse transformer. Firing
angle can be varied from 180o to0o on gradual scale marked on the front panel.

The circuit shown is for obtaining single phase frequency divided output
from a single phase AC input. One group of SCR’s produces positive polarity load
voltage and other group produces negative half cycle of the output. SCR’s T 1 and
T3 of the positive group are gated together depending on the polarity of the input,
only one of them will conduct, when upper AC terminal is positive with respect to
O, SCR T1will conduct and when upper AC terminal is negative, SCR T3will
conduct thus in both half cycles of input, the load voltage polarity will be positive
by changing firing angle, the duration of conducting of each SCR (and there by the
magnitude of the output voltage) can be varied. For the sake of simplicity it is
assumed that the load is positive. Then each SCR will have a conduction angle of
(π –α) and turn off by natural commutation at the end of every half cycle of the
input. At the end of each half period of the output, the firing pulses to the SCR’s
of the positive group will be stopped and SCR’s T2 and T4 of the negative group
will be fired.

183
MTECH POWER ELECTRONICS
THEORY:
The Principle of Constant V/Hz for AC Induction Motor is explained as
follows:
Applied voltage to armature is proportional to frequency and air gap flux of
induction motor. i.e. V/F=Constant
If we maintain voltage to frequency ratio constant than flux in machine is constant.
And torque is independent of supply frequency. The ratio between the magnitude
and frequency of the stator voltage is usually based on the rated values of these
variables, or motor ratings. However, when the frequency and hence also the
voltage are low, the voltage drop across the stator resistance cannot be neglected
and must be compensated. At frequencies higher than the rated value, the constant
V/Hz principle also have to be violated because, to avoid insulation break down,
the stator voltage must not exceed its rated value.
The figure 9.1 shows an AC drive with V/F control concept inbuilt in the drive. By
varying controlled voltage to the drive from 0-10V speed of induction motor
connected to AC drive varies from 0 to 1500 rpm.

Load is usually machinery designed to accomplish a given task. Usually load
requirements can be specified in terms of speed control and torque demands. A
motor having speed-torque characteristics and capabilities compatible with load
demands. Power modulator modulates flow of power from the source to the motor
in such a manner that motor is imparted speed-torque characteristics required by
load. Controls for power modulator built in control unit which usually operates at
much lower voltage and power levels.
Closed loop speed control of DC motor it consists of same elements control unit is
a computer in which control concept is implemented using LabView where auto
tuning of PID control is done to get the motor speed to reference speed or set
speed. Thyristor drive gives the required DC voltage to drive motor at desired
speed according to output voltage variable from PID controller. PID controller
adjusts the output voltage variable till the motor speed reaches desired speed.

Theory:
Closed loop speed control of AC motor –DC generator system.It consists
of same elements present in block diagram 8.1, power modulator control
power flow from source to motor. Power modulator is a AC drive
consists of inverter where output voltage is varied based on controlled
voltage given as input to gating circuit, as input voltage varies from 0 to
10VDC drive output varies from 0-440V. Controlled voltage is
generated from closed loop with PID control implemented in LabView
based on reference speed set value. Actual speed is sensed using
proximity speed sensor and compared with reference speed an speed
error is generated, if error is positive PID controller increases controlled
voltage and if error is negative it decreases the controlled voltage till the
motor speed attains set reference speed. Saturation limiter is limits the
output voltage always in between 0 -5V even though PID controller
output varies -100 to +100. PID controller is tuned using auto tune
blocks available in control design & simulation tool boxDC generator is
connected to AC motor, which generates DC voltage according field
supply voltage to generator and motor actual speed. Loading of DC
generator is done by using lamp load, as load on generator increases
which indirectly loads the motor there by motor speed reduces.
193

PID control always sees the motor speed following set speed or not. As
motor speed reduces due to loading speed error becomes positive then
PID controller increases the controller voltage till motor reaches set
speed. A graph is plotted between set speed and actual speed of motor
by getting data from LabView using LVM file and drawn in Excel sheet,
we can observe variation in speed from the plot very easily. This
experimental setup can be used as constant speed drive system in
industry even load varies on the system

Speed of AC motor can be controlled by armature voltage control
method. The speed of AC motor is directly proportional to armature
voltage and inversely proportional to flux. In armature controlled AC
motor the desired speed is obtained by varying the armature voltage.
