Question

For a type A chopper, source voltage Vs=220V, chopping frequency f=500Hz, Ton=800μs, R=1Ω,L=1mH and E=72V. The duty cycle α at the limit of continuous conduction is
  1. 0.56

Solution

The correct option is A 0.56
The duty cycle α at the limit of continuous conduction is
α=TaTln[1+m(eT/Ta1)]
Ta=LR=1×1031=1×103s
m=EVs=72220=0.3272
T=1f=1500=2×103s
Duty cycle, α=(1×1032×103)ln⎢ ⎢ ⎢1+0.3272⎜ ⎜ ⎜e(2×1031×103)1⎟ ⎟ ⎟⎥ ⎥ ⎥
α=0.564
