Question
In a Full-Wave Controlled Rectifier (Full-Wave Bridge Rectifier) with a resistive load and a
sinusoidal AC input, the thyristors in the control circuit are triggered with a delay angle a (0
<a ≤ 180 degrees). Explain how the average output voltage of the rectifier is influenced by
the delay angle a and the peak value of the input AC voltage, without using mathematical
equations.
