Regarding the question of the preferred HV P/s design, a full wave bridge vs. a doubler, I think the nod goes to the brdige for several reasons. First, I think the G3RZP comment about higher peak cur

"because a doubler is full-wave -- i.e., current flows on both half cycles. The trouble with half-wave is that DC flows in the transformer's secondary winding." I'm afraid that I can't agree, but may

If I may, I think Rich is assuming (but not stating) that the transformer in a FWD would be DESIGNED for such service, and as such, would have windings with wire having at least 2 ( and maybe up to 4

Original message: I think this isn't true. In FW doubler, each diode conducts on alternate half cycles. In FW bridge, each diode conducts on alternate half cycles. The whole piece was very well put b

And in the primary. Which is why the IEC specs limit the amount of DC component that can be drawn from the AC supply. Admittedly, they're shutting the stable door after the horse has bolted..........

Well, you're one up on me at this point Steve. I haven't measured some of the parameters to the degree you have, nor do I have SPICE for modelling. My comments are based on somewhat theoretical calul

I'll try to find time to re-measure too. The Spice numbers stack up with data from the 5th ed. RSGB handbook from 20 yrs ago, but that's far from a reliable guaantee! Double checking the bridge syste

? agreed, Steve. As I understand it, the trade-offs are that the FWD filter requires twice as much capacitance and the FWB transformer typically needs about 1/3 more layers of paper insulation. // T

Even the peak current for the FWB is alot higher than I'd expect, Steve, I studied a previously unread section of Flanagan's book that contains considerable new computer generated data on transformer

One thought, largely in ignorance: is the 'less iron' bit really true? If the peak currents in a doubler system are higher, don't you need higher magnetic flux to support that? If that is the case, t

For a wishy washy answer : yes and no. Yes, less iron, because the the smaller winding size means a smaller "window" area is required in the core which means a smaller core (less iron). This is usual
