| Abstract | Steel-enclosed mercury arc rectifiers, due to their advantages over rotary converters in efficiency, ease and reliability of operation, and ability to produce high d-c. voltages, are gradually replacing other forms of converters in all fields of application. There are at present 600,000 kw. of rectifier installations, distributed over different parts of the world. Statistical data are given showing the growth of installed rectifier capacity since 1911, the distribution of rectifiers over various fields of application, and their increasing use at higher voltages for railways. The high efficiency and reliability of rectifiers at high voltages will undoubtedly influence the selection of systems and voltages for main-line electrification. Comparative operating figures are given for rectifiers and motor-generator sets at 3000 volts d-c. Several types of Brown Boveri rectifiers and their load curves are shown. Due to the fact that the d-c. voltage of a rectifier consists of portions of sine waves, the voltage wave is somewhat undulated. The magnitude of the undulations depends on the number of phases and varies with the load. The effect of the undulations in the voltage wave on the shape of the current wave for various types of loads is discussed, and oscillograms of the voltage and current waves of a rectifier feeding a railway load under various conditions are shown. The effects of the undulations on different kinds of load — batteries, lighting, and power circuits — and on communication circuits paralleling the d-c. feeders are discussed briefly. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
