The principle of operation of the bridge rectifier

The bridge circuit diodes connected to the secondary winding of the transformer Fig.1,
each pair of diodes works alternately VD1 VD3 and VD2VD4: on time diagrams in Fig.2
in the time interval 0-T / 2 open VD1VD3, closed VD2VD4 in the load current flows In;
in the time interval T / 2-T closed VD1VD3, open VD2VD4 in the load current flows In;
the frequency of the ripples of the rectified voltage is twice the network frequency
f p = 2fs = 100, Hz.

The main parameters of the bridge rectifier

1. Mean Straighten Voltage:
  Full-wave bridge rectifier

2. Mean rectified current:
  Full-wave bridge rectifier

Direct current diode:
  Full-wave bridge rectifier

3. Expanding the voltage on the load in a Fourier series, we obtain the numerical value of the ripple coefficient for the bridge rectifying circuit:
  Full-wave bridge rectifier

The amplitude of the main second harmonic frequency 2ω:
  Full-wave bridge rectifier

Therefore, the ripple coefficient will be equal to:
  Full-wave bridge rectifier

The maximum reverse voltage on each of the closed diodes has such a value as in a half-wave rectifier, since they are connected in parallel with respect to the input:
U2m = √2U2;
Uobrmax = π • Unsr; Uomax = √2U2
The main disadvantage is a large number of diodes.
Currently, semiconductor rectifier blocks are produced according to bridge circuit (КЦ402, КЦ403, etc.
