SIMULATION OF THREE PHASE SEMI CONVERTER
AIM:
To simulate three phase semi converters with R load in MATLAB-
SIMULINK.
APPARATUS REQUIRED:
PC with MATLAB
THEORY:
Three-phase semi converter consists of three thyristor and three diodes. The output
voltage Vo across the load terminals is controlled by varying the firing angles of a SCRs T1, T3
and T5. The diodes D4, D6 and D2 provide merely a return path for the current to the most
negative line terminal.
For a firing delay of α = 0 o, thyristor T1, T3 and T5 behaves as diodes and the output voltage of
semi converter would be symmetrical six pulse per cycle. The output voltage consisting of pulses
Vcb, Vab, Vac, etc.
When the firing angle delayed to α = 15 o the triggering of SCR T1, T3 and T5 is delayed but
return diodes D4, D6 and D2 remain unaffected so that only alternate pulses are altered. The load
current is continuous and has little ripple.
The average output voltage is same for both six-pulse and three-pulse operating modes of a
three-phase semi-converter.

PROCEDURE:
1. In MATLAB software open a new model in File->New->model.
2. Start SIMULINK library browser by clicking the symbol in toolbar.
3. And Open the libraries that contain the blocks you will need. These usually will include the
sources, sinks, math and continuous function block and possibly other.
4. Drag the needed blocks from the library folders to that new untitled Simulink Window. You
must give it a name using the Save As menu command under the File menu heading. The
assigned filename is automatically appended with an .mdl Extension.
5. Arrange these blocks in orderly way corresponding by Matlab Model Shown Below.
6. Interconnect the blocks by dragging the cursor from the output of one block to the Input of
another block.
7. Double click on any block having parameters that must be established and set these
parameters.
8. It is necessary to specify a stop time for the simulation; this is done by clicking on the
simulation parameters entry on the simulation-> parameters entry on the Simulation toolbar.
9. Now we are ready to simulate our block diagram. Press start icon to start the Simulation. after
simulation is done, double click the scope block to display the Output. Click the auto scale icon
in the display window to scale the axis as per Variable range.
[Link] save the output.
