hi all
how do i calculate the power or power loss of a full wave Bridge rectifier?
it does have a series inductor and a parallel capacitor after the rectifier.....
you can attach a galvanometer and a voltmeter to input and a galvanometer and a voltmeter to output. measure AC voltage and multiply it by square Root of 2 and multiply it to current. measure DC output voltage and current. the difference Vin xIin - Vout xIout has wasted in rectifier.
