Ans: Sketch of carbon-arc lamp: ( Figure:1 Mark, Working:2 Mark & Application:1 Mark) 1) A.C. Arc Lamp: ( Any one Types expected) or equivalent figure Working of A.C. Carbon-arc lamp:- In a.c arc lamp size of both carbon electrodes is same because, due to a.c supply current will flow from electrode no.1 to electrode no.2 for positive half cycle and negative half cycle its direction is vice-versa. i.e why the wearing of both electrode will same. In A.C arc lamp lowing is equal to or less than 230V is applied to the both carbon electrode. After stretching the one of the carbon electrodes at 2 to 3mm distance from each other. The arc will be induce & light is emitted through this arc. Out of total light emission 45% light will be emitted by carbon electrode no.1 & 45% light will be emitted by carbon no.2 & 10% and light will be emitted by the air gap. The illumination efficiency of a.c arc lamp is 8 lumens/watt 2) D.C.Arc Lamp: or equivalent figure Working of D.C. Carbon-arc lamp:- The connection diagram for d.c arc lamp is as shown in figure. MAHARASHTRA STATE BOARD OF TECHNICAL EDUCATION (Autonomous) (ISO/IEC-27001-2005 Certified) WINTER– 2016 Examinations Subject Code: 17639 Model Answer Page 3 of 36 Whenever low voltage (110 to 150V) D.C. is applied, to the carbon electrode no.1 (positive rod) & electrode no.2 (negative rod) which are in contact with each other initially, so current will start flowing from positive to negative direction vice versa. Whenever current flows one of the rod is stretched away at 2 to 3mm from each other. At that time there is the air gap in between this both rods & the direction of current remains same, so that there will be arc in between these both rod. The light emission is done through this arc. The both rods are made by hard carbon. The carbon is the negative temperature co- efficient of material, so that whenever temperature increases the resistance of the carbon will decreases it will disturb the light intensity to keep the uniform light intensity in the arc, the current limiting resistance is provided by keeping the current constant light emission is kept uniform Whenever current flows from positive to negative rod there is a continuously wearing of (consumption of) positive rod, so it will become as a hallow shape. In other hand this carbon particles will deposite on negative rod, so it will similar to pencil shape due to more wearing & consumption of positive rod, its size is taken as a double of negative rod. At the time of light emmition the temperature of the positive electrode is near about 35000C i.e. why 85% light will be emitted through this positive rod. The lamp of negative rod is the near about 25000C, so 10% light is emitted to the negative rod and 5% light is emitted by the air gap. The illumination efficnecy of the D.C arc lamp is 9 lumens/watt Out of total light emission 45% light will be emitted by carbon electrode no.1 & 45% light will be emitted by carbon no.2 & 10% and light will be emitted by the air gap. The illumination efficiency of a.c arc lamp is 8 lumens/watt Applications of A.C & D.C carbon-arc lamp: 1. Used in flash camera 2. Used in cinema projector 3. Used as search light 4.

Sometimes the starting electrode or resistance is made by tungsten filament having the more resistance ( 5 to 10 K ohm) so that whenever current flows through the tungsten filament as per the thermal emission the light is emitted through the filament ( tungsten immediately) so that initially colour of light is blue. At the same time the rated voltages is applied in between the filament No.1 & filament No.2. Due to this voltage, there will be collision. Of neon gas particles & current will start flow through the discharge tube, Whenever temperature surrounding the inner tube increases up to 6000C the mercury powder will start vaporizing & the continuous collision process of all inert gases is taking place so that full light is emitted through the discharge tube. The colour of light is bluish white. The full light is emitted after 10-15 min. OR Student may write The construction & connection diagram is as shown in figure. As per this construction there are following components. Choke: The choke is acting as the ballast. At the time of supply voltage variation of MAHARASHTRA STATE BOARD OF TECHNICAL EDUCATION (Autonomous) (ISO/IEC-27001-2005 Certified) WINTER– 2016 Examinations Subject Code: 17639 Model Answer Page 36 of 36 current flowing through the inner tube is maintained constant to keep uniform light intensity. Sometimes choke can be designed for to get the higher voltages & to apply the inner tube of mercury vapour lamp. Starting resistance/limiting resistance: Whenever current flows through the starting resistance there is a I2R loss which is converted into heat. If the temperature of this heat goes near about 6000C then there will be heating effect & inert gases ionization will be start. Auxiliary electrode & Main electrode: It is made by high resistive element. The ionization is taking place through the inert gases whenever current flows from auxiliary electrode to main electrode. Inner Tube: The various inert gases e.g. Argon, Nitrogen etc with mercury powder are filled in the inner tube at low pressure or high pressure. Outer Tube: The function of outer tube is to make the vacuum surrounding the inner tube to avoid thermal dissipation or to maintain 6000C surrounding the inner tube.
