Calculate the value of the Input power factor for 3-Φ Fully controlled rectifier if the firing angle value is 16°.(a) .96(b) .91(c) .93(d) .94The question was posed to me by my college professor while I was bunking the class.This key question is from Solid-State Switching Circuits in section Introduction to Solid-State Switching Circuits of Electric Drives

Answer» CORRECT option is (b) .91

For explanation: The VALUE of the input power FACTOR for 3-Φ Fully controlled rectifier is .95cos(16°)=.91. The input power factor is a product of DISTORTION factor and displacement factor.
