In the previous chapter, we learned how to simulate uncontrolled rectifiers in the Simulink environment. This chapter focuses on the simulation of controlled (thyristor) rectifiers. We will learn how to simulate single-phase half-wave and full-wave controlled rectifiers, three-phase controlled rectifiers, and circuits that contain mutual inductance.

Example 1: Single-Phase Half-Wave Thyristor Rectifier

We want to simulate a single-phase half-wave ...
