Assignment

1. Derive an expression for ripple voltage of a multistage Cockroft-Walton Circuit. Derive an expression for the
voltage output under load condition. Hence, deduce the condition for optimal number of stage if a maximum
value of output voltage is desired.

2. Give complete analysis of circuit ‘a’ and show that the wave front and wave tail resistances are physically
realisable only under certain condition. Derive the condition.

3. Give complete analysis of circuit ‘b’ and derive the condition for physical realisation of wave front and wave tail
resistances.

4. Draw a neat diagram of a high current generator circuit (equivalent circuit) and through analysis of the circuit
show how the wave form can be controlled.

impulse wave produced.

available is 1000 pF. Find the series resistance and damping resistance needed to produce 1.2/50 μs impulse
wave. What is the Maximum output voltage of the generator, if the charging voltage is 120 KV?

capacitance of 0.06 μF to be used to test transformers with an equivalent winding to earth capacitance of 1 nF. A
peak output voltage of 550 kV is required for testing the transformer. The wave front time is to be defined based
on 30% and 90% values. (a) With the aid of appropriate calculations select the values of the resistive elements in
the circuit to produce the required waveform. State any assumptions made.

10. A 100 kVA 250 V/200 kV feed transformer has resistance and reactance of 1% and 5% respectively. This
