How inductor works in a halfwave rectifier

[zubair.mehmood]

hi

how the inductor works in an uncontrolled half wave rectifier? i want to clear some ambiguities. watch the link **broken link removed** Video No 10 (concerned point starts from 16:20 minutes of the video). Is there some error in explanation? or may be i am not understanding well ...

thanks

hi,
That explanation from the video is not at all clear.
Look at this pdf for a clearer explanation, then re-watch the vid.

purely inductive load in a half wave rectifier

yes dear i have seen and also simulated these circuits in simulink. but the working of the purely inductive load in a half wave rectifier has been shown very confusing in this video. how the current reaches peak at pi where as we have the purely sinusoidal input voltage and for which di/dt is positive for pi/2 and then negative for remaining pi/2
