Abstract :
THE development of single-anode rectifying elements has greatly stimulated the application of rectifiers to general industrial and essential duty loads. Sealed ignitron rectifiers1 have been made available in a range of ratings, and industry is vitally interested in the performance of these equipments when operated under conditions of partialanode complement, as when an anode is misfiring or is entirely out of service.
