Determining average output voltage
A six phase star rectifier has a purely resistive load of R=10 ohms, the peak supply. Determine the average output voltage of the rectifier if the source inductance is negligible. Voltage Vm=170V, and the supply frequency 60 Hz.

Six-phase converters
High-power converters don't use single-phase supplies. Three-phase rectifiers with a balanced load on each phase do not generate triplen harmonics (3rd, 9th, 15th, etc) at their power inputs.
It is possible to use an input transformer with both star and delta secondaries to achieve a ...
