Voltage and current waveforms of a three-phase full converter with a highly inductive load is shown in figure. This converter provides two quadrant operation and thyristors are fired at an interval of π/3 degrees. Since thyristors are fired every 60°, the frequency of the output ripple voltage is six times the frequency of the supply voltage. At ωt = π /6 + α, thyristor S6 is already conducting and thyristor S1 is turned on. For the interval ωt of π/6 to π/2 thyristors S1 and S6 conduct, and line to line voltage vab appears across the load. At ωt = π /2 + α, thyristor S2 is turned on and thyristor S6 is turned off due to natural commutation. This occurs because when thyristor S2 is turned on, the line to line voltage across thyristor S6 is the positive voltage vbc from cathode to anode which reverse biases thyristor S6. During the interval ωt of (π /2 + α) (5 π /6 + α), thyristors S1 and S2 conduct and line to line voltage appears across the load. The firing sequence of the thyristors is: 12, 23, 34, 45, 56 and 61.
The average output voltage is given by
{V_{dc}} = \frac{6}{{2\pi }}\int\limits_{\pi /6 + \alpha }^{\pi /2 + \alpha } {{V_{ab}}d\left( {\omega t} \right)}
{V_{dc}} = \frac{3}{\pi }\int\limits_{\pi /6 + \alpha }^{\pi /2 + \alpha } {\sqrt 3 {V_m}\sin \left( {\omega t + \frac{\pi }{6}} \right)d\left( {\omega t} \right)}
{V_{dc}} = \frac{{3\sqrt 3 {V_m}}}{\pi }\cos \alpha
The maximum output dc voltage is given by
{V_{dm}} = \frac{{3\sqrt 3 {V_m}}}{\pi }
The rms output voltage is given by
{V_{rms}} = {\left[ {\frac{3}{\pi }\int\limits_{\pi /6 + \alpha }^{\pi /2 + \alpha } {{{\left( {\sqrt 3 {V_m}\sin (\omega t + \frac{\pi }{6})} \right)}^2}d(\omega t)} } \right]^{\frac{1}{2}}}
{V_{rms}} = \sqrt 3 {V_m}{\left( {\frac{1}{2} + \frac{{3\sqrt 3 }}{{4\pi }}\cos 2\alpha } \right)^{\frac{1}{2}}}

For fully controlled rectifier, The DC Motor operates in two modes.
Rectification [As Motoring]
V0 = positive
Ea = Positive
Io= positive
Power Flow (+ve) from input AC to DC machine
Inversion [As Regenerative Braking]
V0 = negative
Ea = negative
Io= positive
Power Flow (-ve) from DC machine to AC supply

Ed becomes smaller as α increases, but still each thyristor conducts 120 deg. Power flow is from AC side to DC side. Id=(Ed-E0)/R
Thyristor based Line Commutated Inverter (3-phase)
Thyristor based Line Commutated Inverter (3-phase)
Id=(Eo-Ed)/R, real power flow is from DC to AC side, Polarity of Ed is reversed.
Triggering range:
Rectifier 15°-90°, inverter: 90°-165°. Thyristor may misfire for α less than 15° (def. 8°) for sudden change in line voltage and hence discontinuity in output current. If we go beyond 165°, the inverter may lose its ability to switch from one thyristor to the next. As a result currents build up very quickly until the CB trips. For safety margin max α is 150°.
