How does the number of diodes affect the RMS output current in a diode rectifier?

Harmonics in the AC input of a rectifier can significantly impact the RMS output current. High levels of harmonics can increase the distortion of the input voltage waveform, leading to a distorted and non-sinusoidal output current. This distortion causes higher RMS values and can reduce the rectifier's efficiency and increase losses. The rectifier may require larger filtering components to mitigate harmonic effects and deliver a smoother DC output. Additionally, the increased RMS current due to harmonics may lead to overheating and reduced power quality, affecting the performance and reliability of the rectifier and connected loads.
