  • Question

  • An electric heater is controlled by thyristors through on-off control. If a = 0.4, the heating is


  • Options
  • A. 16% maximum
  • B. 40% of maximum
  • C. 60% of maximum
  • D. 84% of maximum

  • Correct Answer
  • 40% of maximum 

    Explanation
    Vl = V a. Therefore Vl2 - V2 (a). Heating is proportional to a.
