AC-DC power electronics {renpow}

AC-DC and DC-AC in the time domain

Description

Calculates and plots AC sinusoidal waves in the time domain and phasors.

Usage

rectifier(v.t, full = FALSE)
ac.plot.rect(V.t, v.lab = "v(t)", v.units = "V", y.lab = "v(t)[V]", rms = FALSE)
inverter(x)

Arguments

v.t

Values of AC variable at time intervals calculated using waves

full

Logical to use full wave rectifier

V.t

output of rectifier

v.lab

Label for variable in time domain plot or phasor plot; time domain would typically include (t) and phasor would be upper case

v.units

Units for variable in time domain plot or phasor plot; time domain would typically include (t) and phasor would be upper case

y.lab

Label for y axis composed of variable label and units

rms

Logical for whether the RMS value is addedd to the plot

x

list(f,vin,nc): frequency, input voltage, number of cycles

Details

Calculations of basic power electronics devices

Value

V.t

output of rectifier list(w,t,nw,ym,ang,y,yrms,yavg)

vtr

Values of rectified AC variable at time intervals calculated using rectifier
