Triode for alternating current

Information

Simplified model of a triode for alternating current, built from two antiparallel thyristors. thyristor1 has to be fired during the positive halfwave of the voltage. thyristor2 has to be fired during the negative halfwave of the voltage.

Note: A real triac is fired in positive direction (thyristor1) by a positive gate current and in negative direction (thyristor2) by a negative gate current. The triac goes in blocking condition when the current falls to zero.

This behaviour is simulated by the two firing gates fire1 and fire2:

Extends from Modelica.Electrical.Analog.Interfaces.TwoPin (Component with two electrical pins).

Triodes for alternating current

Information

Simplified model of m triodes for alternating current, each built from two antiparallel thyristors. thyristor1 has to be fired during the positive halfwave of the voltage. thyristor2 has to be fired during the negative halfwave of the voltage.

Note: A real triac is fired in positive direction (thyristor1) by a positive gate current and in negative direction (thyristor2) by a negative gate current. The triac goes in blocking condition when the current falls to zero.

This behaviour is simulated by the two firing gates fire1 and fire2:

Extends from Modelica.Electrical.Polyphase.Interfaces.TwoPlug (Component with one polyphase electrical port), Modelica.Electrical.Polyphase.Interfaces.ConditionalHeatPort (Partial model to include conditional HeatPorts in order to describe the power loss via a thermal network).
