Se tiene el RECTIFICADOR NO CONTROLADO trifasico onda completa

Cual es la Ioav maxima que puede entregar el rectificador?
Cual es la Voav maxima que puede entregar el rectificador?
Cual es la Poav maxima que puede entregar el rectificador?

Para el SKN 240/8:

VRRM = 800 V
IF av = 240 A
IF SM = 6000 A
IF RM S = 500 A

(1.5)

Con estos datos queremos determinar la maxima Ioav y la maxima Voav .

Figura 1.3: Circuito rectificador de onda completa de 6 pulsos.

IF RM S = 500 A es la maxima IF RM S en cada diodo SKN 240/08.

Entonces, cuanto valdra la Io ?
Como es la forma de onda de iF ?

Figura 1.4: Corriente iF (t) y corriente de salida io (t).

Cuanto vale entonces la IF RM S ? Para hacerlo mas sencillo, vamos a comparar

con IoRM S , que es VoRM S /R.

Que pasa si no dispongo de IF RM S , sino de IF av ?

En realidad, la corriente lmite (especificacion) se puede establecer solo para
IF RM S , que es la que destruye el dispositivo (por temperatura). Si me dan la IF av
es porque el fabricante ha calculado IF av a partir de la IF RM S para una determinada forma de onda de la corriente del diodo.[Ref: Manual SEMIKRON
92 93 pag.A-85].
Por lo tanto, si el fabricante me informa solo IF av , puedo utilizarla solo si se
corresponde a la forma de onda de la aplicacion (del circuito rectificador) o bien
se que es algo muy aproximado.
Cuanto vale Ioav a partir de IF av ?

Inductancia crtica

En el analisis anterior se presupuso que el filtro no alteraba la Vi . Esto es

cierto solo si existe conducci
on continua.
CONDUCCION CONTINUA: la corriente en la inductancia nunca se hace
nula durante el funcionamiento normal.
Si existiera conducci
on discontinua no solo no valdra el analisis anterior
sino que ademas (y fundamentalmente) empeorara el factor de forma de la corriente IF (IF RM S mas elevada, como en el filtro C.)
