Question

A single phase full bridge diode rectifier is supplied from 230 V, 50 Hz source. The load consists of R=10 Ω and a large inductance so as to render the load current constant. The input supply power factor is _____________lagging.

  1. 0.9

Solution

The correct option is A 0.9
Average value of output voltage,
V0=2Vmπ=2×2×230π
V0=207.07 V

Average value of output current,
I0=V0R=207.0710=20.707 A

Input source current=Is=I0ππ=I0=20.707 A
Input source rms voltage=Vs=230 V
Input power factor=V0I0VsIs=207.07×20.707230×20.707=0.90 lagging
