Since the output voltage is periodic with period one-sixth of the ac supply
voltage, the harmonics in the output are of order 6kω, k = 1, 2, 3 . . .
An advantage of the three-phase rectifier over the single-phase rectifier is
that the output is inherently like a dc voltage, and the high-frequency low-
amplitude harmonics enable filters to be effective.

(d) The rms source current is also obtained from Eq. (4-41).
(e) The apparent power from the source is determined from Eq. (4-42).
