1. Introduction:
Controllers are employed to vary the rms value of load by
introducing thyristors between the source and the load. In
phase angle control, the thyristors are employed as
switches to connect the load circuit to source for a chosen
portion of each cycle of the source voltage.
2. Applications of the AC voltage
controller are:
- Industrial heating control
- lightning control
- Soft starter of induction motors
- Transformers tap changing
- Heavy current rectifiers
3. Lab Results:
4. Conclusion:
The ac voltage controller is a power electronics converter topology that
controls the rms value of an ac voltage applied to an electrical load. There are
applications where it is often required to control the value of an ac voltage
applied to an electrical load.
