Nuclear Power Plant
Thermal or Steam power plant
Operating Principle of Thermal Power Plant
In a thermal power station, fuel is burned and is used to convert water into steam at the required pressure and temperature.
Full-wave Controlled Center-tap Rectifiers
Mobile Radio Propagation
Introduction
The mobile radio channel places fundamental limitations on the performance of wireless communication systems.
The wireless transmission path may be of two types:
Ni-Cd battery charger circuit
- Current Regulation: The circuit employs an automatic current regulator to regulate the charging current to approximately 4 amperes.
Diode Protection
Power Losses In Switches
An ideal switch is shown in Figure 1. The power loss generated in the switch is the product of the current through the switch and the voltage across the switch.
Diode Circuit Analysis & Losses
Principal Ratings Of Diode
Peak Inverse Voltage (PIV)
Peak Inverse Voltage (PIV), also known as Peak Reverse Voltage (PRV), refers to the maximum voltage that a diode or rectifier can withstand in reverse bias withou
Diodes in Series
The maximum power that can be controlled by a single diode is determined by its rated reverse voltage and by its rated forward current.
Diodes In Parallel
SCR Protection
To obtain satisfactory and reliable SCR operation, it is necessary to provide protection against over voltages and over currents.
