Home Tube DIY Asylum

Do It Yourself (DIY) paradise for tube and SET project builders.

I think you proved it yourself

>Forward current If (average) = 10A, forward voltage drop = 2.2V (25C) & 2.6V (75C).

Standard non-Schottky HV silicon rectifiers and bridges typically exhibit 0.7-0.9V average forward drop. This difference is not insubstantial, especialy in high current applications. The device you've quoted would dissipate 22-26 watts at its rated current.
