REGULATING POLE CONVERTERS 441 Due to the third harmonic, t, and the angle of shift of the field flux, Ta, the voltage ratio differs from the normal by the factor: (1 + t) cosVa, and the ring voltage of the converter thus is: E = hence, by (1): (1 + t) COS ra' (3) EQ sin T7f ___ JLJ — n (4) A/2 (1 + t) COSTa and the power component of the ring current corresponding to the direct-current output thus is, when neglecting losses, from (2): If = 1° (1 + t) COS Ta COS Ta (5) n sm n Due to the loss, pi, in the converter, this current is increased by (1 + PI) in a direct converter, or decreased by the factor (1 — pi) in an inverted converter. The power component of the alternating current thus is: = r (i + pi) T = jf COSTq . TT n sin -- n (6) where pi may be considered as negative in an inverted converter. With the angle of lag 0i, the reactive component of the current is: /2 = /]_ tan 0i, and the total alternating ring current is: r_ T = COS I _ JoV2(l+Q (1+Pl) COSTg n sin - cos n (7) Ih if fir,1 * I
