A three-phase fully controlled bridge converter is fed through star-delta transformer as shown in the figure.

The converter is operated at a firing angle of $${30^0}.$$ Assuming the load current $$\left( {{{\rm I}_0}} \right)$$ to be virtually constant at $$1$$ $$p.u.$$ and transformer to be an ideal one, the input phase current waveform is

A diode circuit feeds an ideal inductor as shown in the figure. Given $${V_s} = 100\,\,\sin \,\left( {\omega t} \right)V,$$ where $$\omega = 100\pi $$ rad/s, and $$L=31.83$$ $$mH$$. The initial value of inductor current is zero. Switch $$S$$ is closed at $$t=2.5$$ $$ms.$$ The peak value of inductor current $${i_L}\left( {in\,\,A} \right)$$ in the first cycle is __________.

A fully controlled converter bridge feeds a highly inductive load with ripple free load current. The input supply $$\left( {{V_s}} \right)$$ to the bridge is a sinusoidal source. Triggering angle of the bridge converter is $$\,\alpha = {30^0}.$$ The input power factor of the bridge is ____________.

The input voltage given to a converter is
