Ripple Factor of DC Chopper Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Ripple Factor = sqrt((1/Duty Cycle)-Duty Cycle)
RF = sqrt((1/d)-d)
This formula uses 1 Functions, 2 Variables

Functions Used

sqrt - A square root function is a function that takes a non-negative number as an input and returns the square root of the given input number., sqrt(Number)

Variables Used

Ripple Factor - Ripple Factor is defined as the ratio of RMS value of an alternating current component in the rectified output to the average value of rectified output.
Duty Cycle - A Duty Cycle or power cycle is the fraction of one period in which a signal or system is active.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Duty Cycle: 0.529 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

RF = sqrt((1/d)-d) --> sqrt((1/0.529)-0.529)

Evaluating ... ...

RF = 1.16677297202239

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

1.16677297202239 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

1.16677297202239 ≈ 1.166773 <-- Ripple Factor
