1) The average load voltage and capacitor voltage are the same, as they are connected in parallel. * So, the average capacitor voltage ( UC ) is   UC = 2×Vm / 8 * Where, * Vm = Vp - ( 2 × Up ) * At a time, two diodes will conduct in bridge rectifier. * So, the voltage is double the forward voltage drop of individual diode. * Vp = Uin × √2          = 230 × √2 * Vp = 325.269 V * So,   Vm = 325.269 - 1.8  * Vm = 323.469 V and * The average capacitor voltage ( UC ) is     UC = 2 × 323.469 / 8 * The average capacitor voltage ( UC ) = 205.9 V. 2) The average load current ( IL ) is      IL = P_active / Vavg            = 1800 / 205.9 * So, the average load current ( IL ) = 8.74 amps 3) The load current is the sum of two path current and * The each path carries 1/2 times the load current via dio ...
