Hi Guys,
This is my first post and was hoping to get some feedback with regards to the following problem.
I am calculating the avg DC output of a Full-Wave bridge rectifier with a 1K ohm load, using a 10 mic filter capacitor from a 14.5 50 Hz RMS AC source.
I have uploaded a copy of my working with regards to this problem.
The issue I have is that there is approx 2.1 Volts discrepancy between what I have calculated and my measured values from the build.
I also have simulated the build using LTSpice and the output value from the simulation is very similar to my measured vale from the build.
Calculated = 13.07 VDC
Measured = 15.13 VDC
Simulated = 14.908 VDC
If someone would't mind having a look over my working to identify an error I would be most appreciative as I cannot see it, or alternatively explain the discrepancy that would also be equally as welcome.
Regards
Dan
