Definition of "thyristor rectifier" |
a rectifier where the switches are thyristors. Thyristors are turned on by a gate trigger signal, and turned off by natural commutation. The output voltage is controllable by adjusting the firing angle α of the trigger signal. The direction of the power flow is reversible when an inductive load is used. When the average power flow is from DC to AC (α > π/2), the rectifier is said to be operating in the line-commutated inverter mode. |
