Solution and Explanation
Step 1: Analyze the circuit.
Using ideal diode assumptions, determine which diodes are conducting. Solve for \( I \) using Kirchhoff's Voltage Law (KVL) and Ohm's Law.
Step 2: Calculate the current \( I \).
After analyzing the circuit:
\[
I = 1.64 \, \text{to} \, 1.70 \, \text{mA}.

- A single-phase half-controlled bridge converter supplies an inductive load with ripple-free load current. The triggering angle of the converter is \( 60^\circ \). The ratio of the rms value of the fundamental component of the input current to the rms value of the total input current of the bridge is (rounded off to 3 decimal places).
- In the DC-DC converter shown in the figure, the current through the inductor is continuous. The switching frequency is \( 500 \, \text{Hz} \). The voltage (\( V_o \)) across the load is assumed to be constant and ripple-free. The peak inductor current in amperes is (rounded off to the nearest integer).
\includegraphics[width=0.5\linewidth]{64.png} - A single-phase full-controlled thyristor converter bridge is used for regenerative braking of a separately excited DC motor with the following specifications: Rated armature voltage = \( 210 \, \text{V} \), Rated armature current = \( 10 \, \text{A} \), Rated speed = \( 1200 \, \text{rpm} \), Armature resistance = \( 1 \, \Omega \), Input to the converter bridge = \( 240 \, \text{V at 50 Hz} \). Assume that the motor is running at \( 600 \, \text{rpm} \) and the armature terminals of the motor are suitably reversed for regenerative braking. If the armature current of the motor is to be maintained at the rated value, the triggering angle of the converter bridge in degrees should be (rounded off to 2 decimal places).
\begin{tabular}{|l|l|} \hline Parameter & Value
\hline Rated armature voltage & 210 V
\hline Rated armature current & 10 A
\hline Rated speed & 1200 rpm
\hline Armature resistance & 1 $\Omega$
\hline Input to the converter bridge & 240 V at 50 Hz
\hline \end{tabular}
The armature of the DC motor is fed from the fullcontrolled bridge and the field current is kept constant. - A 5 kW, 220 V DC shunt motor has \( 0.5 \, \Omega \) armature resistance including brushes. The motor draws a no-load current of \( 3 \, A \). The field current is constant at \( 1 \, A \). Assuming that the core and rotational losses are constant and independent of the load, the current (in amperes) drawn by the motor while delivering the rated load, for the best possible efficiency, is (rounded off to 2 decimal places).
- Consider the closed-loop system shown in the figure with \[ G(s) = \frac{K(s^2 - 2s + 2)}{s^2 + 2s + 5}. \] The root locus for the closed-loop system is to be drawn for \( 0 \leq KLt;\infty \). The angle of departure (between \( 0^\circ \) and \( 360^\circ \)) of the root locus branch drawn from the pole \( (-1 + j2) \), in degrees, is (rounded off to the nearest integer).
