Question 3
3.1 Explain why power electronic circuits are sources of RFI.
(3)
Power electronics makes use of static switches (no moving parts). This enables fast
switching of the devices from conduction state to blocking state. Further, the devices
are capable of conducting high currents and blocking high voltages. This causes rapid
change in the current and or voltage levels over components in the circuit. These rapid
changes are called transients. When ever a wave form does not conform to a pure sine
or cosine wave it contains harmonics. Harmonics are multiples of the switching
frequency in the case of power electronics.
3.2 Define EMC.
(2)
Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) is defined as the ability of equipment or a system
to function satisfactorily in its electromagnetic environment (EME) without introducing
intolerable electromagnetic disturbance to any equipment in that environment (even
itself).
3.3 How can EMC be achieved in power electronic circuits?
(3)
Electromagnetic compatibility can be achieved by the following actions:

Reduce the level of EMI emissions from the source.

Reduce the effectiveness of the path of the EMI.

Reduce the susceptibility of the receptor.
3.4 Explain which precautions must be taken to limit RFI in power electronic circuits.
Include basic circuits for RFI suppression.
(6)
Radio frequency interference must be prevented from entering into a circuit and must be
eliminated if it enters the circuit. This is done by screening sensitive circuit sections and
filtering of RFI frequencies. Harmonics between lines are removed by placing T-, - or
L-type filters between the supply and the switching element. Further screening of the
circuit and supplying a good earth to the screen prevents radiation of the RFI.

Limiting conductive interference is done by using filters and snubbers (transient
suppression). Limiting radiative interference is done by using screening, earthing,
correct printed circuit board (PCB) techniques and layout as well as other means of
preventing the equipment becoming a transmitter of high-frequency emissions.

ASSIGNMENT 3
Question 1
1.1
Sketch a diagram to illustrate the concept of dynamic braking of a DC motor.
(2)
1.2
Explain the use of dynamic braking of a DC motor.
(4)
To apply dynamic braking, the armature circuit is isolated from the supply and then a
resistor of suitable rating is connected to the armature. The motor now acts as a
generator and the kinetic energy of the motor is now dissipated in the resistor. The
work done by the motor slows it down rapidly. As the motor speed drops, the braking
power also drops. Dynamic braking is also called resistive braking. When the motor
stops all the energy has been dissipated and the motor will not reverse.
1.3
Sketch a diagram to illustrate the concept of plugging to rapidly slow down a DC
motor.
(2)
1.4
Explain the application of plugging on a DC motor.
(4)
The supply terminals of the motor are swopped while the motor is still running. This
causes the back-emf and the supply voltage to add, resulting in a high current and
thus high counter torque which slows down the motor rapidly. If this process is not
controlled by means of a PWM control scheme, serious damage can be caused to the
motor and/or the load. A speed sensor must be used to sense zero speed to prevent
reversal of the motor direction.
1.5
Sketch a diagram to illustrate the concept of regenerative braking of a DC motor.
(2)
9
1.6
Explain the application of regenerative braking of a DC motor.
(4)
Regenerative braking implies that the motor is acting as a generator and its kinetic
energy is not wasted in a resistor as in dynamic braking, but it is returned to the
source. E must be greater than V for regenerative braking to take place. The control
of the motor is used to track the back-emf of the motor in such a way that the back-emf
is larger than the voltage supplied to the motor to allow power to be transferred from
the motor to the supply. The motor is acting as a generator and the motor drive is
operating in the inverting mode. This is done by means of phase angle control with
   2 . As soon as the motor speed falls too low to provide a voltage E greater than
V, dynamic braking ceases and another form of braking must be employed. It is a very
energy efficient method of braking but much more sophisticated control circuitry is
needed than with the other types of braking.

Question 5
5.1
What is the cause of overlap in power electronic converters?
(1)
The source inductance of the supply lines causes a delay in the transfer of current
from an outgoing device to an incoming device. This causes two devices to be on
simultaneously which in three phase systems boils down to a line to line short of
limited duration.

a three-pulse controlled rectifier.

Sketch voltage and current waveforms illustrating the effect of overlap in a three-phase

(7)
5.4
The short circuit impedance of a transformer feeding a three pulse rectifier is 0,645 Ω
per phase. The load current is 40 A feeding into a highly inductive load. The
transformer secondary supplies 220 V 50 Hz to the rectifier. The delay angle is 15˚.
Determine the angle of overlap in degrees under these circumstances.

PCE3601/201/0/2016
Determine the power factor of a single phase bridge rectifier assuming level
load current.
Consider the circuit of a single phase bridge rectifier in figure 1. The load is very
heavy inductive and thus the assumption of level load current can be made. The wave
forms applicable to the output side and input side of the bridge rectifier is shown in
figure 2 and figure 3 respectively.
The power factor can be determined as follows:
Considering the output waveforms:
