Total Harmonic Distortion and Effects in Electrical Power Systems
نویسنده
چکیده
Introduction The power quality of distribution systems has a drastic effect on power regulation and consumption. Johan Lundquist of the Chalmers University of Technology in Goteberg, Sweden put it best, stating “The phrase ‘power quality’ has been widely used during the last decade and includes all aspects of events in the system that deviates from normal operation.” This has been especially true after the second half of the 20 century when new types of electronic power sources caused distortion in waveforms of the power system.

Design of a Digital Voltage Controller in Single-Phase Grid-Connected Renewable Converters
Power decoupling of pulsating grid side power from constant source side power is one of the paramount issues in single phase-phase grid-connected renewable systems. The principal aim of such systems is the decrease of the capacitance of the decoupled capacitor. However, this causes some problems such as an increase in the total harmonic distortion (THD) of injected current to the grid and bus v...
متن کاملActive Power Filter Design by a Novel Approach of Multi-Objective Optimization
This paper presents an innovative active power filter design method to simultaneously compensate the current harmonics and reactive power of a nonlinear load. The power filter integrates a passive power filter which is a RL low-pass filter placed in series with the load, and an active power filter which comprises an RL in series with an IGBT based voltage source converter. The filter is assumed...

An intelligent method based on wavelet neural network (WNN) is presented in this study to estimate voltage harmonic distortion waveforms at a non-monitored sensitive load. Voltage harmonics are considered as the main type of waveform distortion in the power quality approach. To detect and analyze voltage harmonics, it is not economical to install power quality monitors (PQMs) at all buses. The ...

Abstract:Today, one of the important issues of power quality (PQ) in power systems is the current harmonics. Increasing expansion of nonlinear loads at different parts of the electric network makes harmonic distortion flow through the network. This causes the network to have background voltage and current harmonic distortion and even affect on the PQ of linear load performance. Therefore, it is...
