The conductors of a $$10$$ $$km$$ long, single phase, two wire line are separated by a distance of $$1.5$$ $$m.$$ The diameter of each conductor is $$1$$ $$cm.$$ If the conductors are of copper, the inductance of the circuit is

$$AC$$ to $$DC$$ circulating current dual converters are operated with the following relationship between their triggering angles $$\left( {{\alpha _1}} \right.$$ and $$\left. {{\alpha _2}} \right).$$

A half-wave thyristor converter supplies a purely inductive load, as shown in figure. If the triggering angle of the thyristor is $${120^ \circ }$$, the extinction angle will be

A voltage commutated thyristor chopper circuit is shown in fig. The chopper is operated at $$500$$ $$Hz$$ with $$50\% $$ duty ratio. The load takes a constant current of $$20A$$

(a) Evaluate the circuit turn off time for the main thyristor $$T{h_1}$$
(b) Calculate the value of inductor $$L,$$ if the peak current through the main thyristor $$Th,$$ is limited to $$180$$% of the load current.
(c)Calculate the maximum instantaneous output voltage of the chopper
