Derive the expression of efficiency of a rectifier circuit.

Answer» RECTIFIER EFFICIENCY is defined as the ratio of DC POWER to the applied INPUT AC power. The AC input power is given by: P ac= I 2 rms(r f + R L) , where r f is diode resistance. Therefore, maximum rectifier efficiency = 40.6%. This means only 40.6% of the input AC power is converted into DC power.
