Morning
Again, trying to get the bombardment scr to work. The idea was that maybe the scr is not holding from a lack of current flow. Thinking of the scr like a diode that has a set point, the scr will pass a waveform once that set point is hit until the zero crossing of the wave or until the current is lower than a threshold. To try to increase the current flowing through the circuit, we made up a resistor board that will have around 800 mA of current flowing through each phase line to keep the scr's on.
Afternoon
With the board assembled, we went up and gave it a shot. With no load, the thing works great. After reapplying the transformer, it did not preform as well. It could be due to the inductive properties of the transformer, or perhaps a different problem. It will probably take more tinkering before a full solution becomes apparent.
