Implementation of Passive Filters for Harmonics Reduction

چکیده
In recent years there has been widespread use of power electronics devices and nonlinear elements in rectification and switchgear applied to various areas of power system. Power systems contain levels of harmonics which can no longer be ignored by engineers, planners, energy conservationists and economists due to the presence of non-linear loads. A simulated case study of distributed system in IEEE 519 is being used here for harmonic reduction. From the simulated case study, the network was investigated using MiPower software package. The results were compared with IEEE standards 519 and it was found that MiPower software is the preferred package for power system harmonic analysis. The harmonic reduction solution chosen was to design a passive filter to decrease the distortion by shifting the resonance point of the network. This paper includes the method to design the passive filter and its impact on efficiency and energy usage.

Optimal Sitting, Sizing, and Operation of Batteries and Passive Filters to Mitigate Over-voltage and Harmonic Problems in Distribution Networks with High Photovoltaic Penetration
Photovoltaic systems (PVs), despite their many advantages, may have effects such as power quality issues (voltage and harmonics increase), short-circuits level increase, protection issues, and transient stability for network. Some of these effects are due to the high PV penetration, which encounters the network with the over-voltage and harmonics problems. In this paper, the location, size and ...

Thyristor rectifiers are widely used in electric railways in order to control the speed. As a consequence of their usage in addition to substantial input lead current, an enormous amount of harmonics is injected into the grid. To avoid such harmonics as well as reactive power compensation, reactive power hybrid filters consisting of active and passive filters are utilized. Regarding different p...
