2For Regulating power in ac controllers two methods are there:Phase ControlIntegral Control
Single Phase Half wave AC Voltage controller
Single Phase Full wave AC Voltage controller
Integral Control Used in several industrial applications where the mechanical or the thermal time constants are of the order of several seconds. Eg. Mechanical time constants for some speed control drives and thermal time constants for heating loads is quite high.No change will be noticed if load is disconnected from the supply for some off cycles.
Principle of integral cycle control
Only Resistive Load
RL load
Two Stage sequence controlled
Multistage Controller
