Fourier analyses of the voltage wave-shapes that are obtained by the parametric variation of the pole-arc offset value have been made. The THD is determined for each voltage wave-shape. As a result of optimization study the efficiency and the output power have been kept approximately constant. The THD of the output voltage has been decreased UR - https://scientiairanica.sharif.edu/article_4357.html L1 - https://scientiairanica.sharif.edu/article_4357_0a52fae70b4a160cd3bdf0dcd2f3d10c.pdf ER -
