Single-phase diode rectifiers with active-capacitive load widely applied in different supplying sources pose specific problems to the engineers. The known methods (‘eastern”, based on the assumption that the voltage across the filtering capacitor is almost even and ‘western”) for their electrical design are graphic-analytical and suffer from limited accuracy and waste of time. Some quantities, namely the r.m.s. values of the transformer secondary and primary winding currents, are specified. The standard transformer power, the powers of its windings, the output (load) characteristic and the distortion coefficient of the primary current are also obtained. MATLAB programs for exact graphical representation of the functions, participating in the full electrical design of the rectifiers and for computeraided design implementation are created. PSPICE simulations confirm the results for some practical examples.
