Industry background Chemical industry involves many mechanical processes with demanding quality requirements. Before any mechanical smelting, casting, or stamping, an induction melting furnace is used to melt metal. Most induction melting furnaces use a 6-pulse or 12-pulse rectifier, which produces high volumes of harmonic and reactive power. As a result, the production efficiency of induction mel...

What's the Definition of Power Factor? Power Factor Definition: Power factor(PF for short) is the ratio between KW and KVA drawn by an electrical load where the KW is the actual load power and the KVA is the apparent load power. It is a measure of how effectively the current is being converted into useful work output and more particularly is a good indicator of the effect of the load current on th...

HV/MV Power factor correction is directly related to the different aspects that assist the technical management of transport and distribution networks. These are: Power quality This involves the increase in the levels of voltage in substation busbars and line ends. Optimisation of the installation's cost of operation In other words, the decrease of the reactive energy and, therefore, the reduction...

Introduction to Active Harmonic Filter Suitable to be fitted within large installation systems, Active Harmonic Filters are used to eliminate, or at least mitigate, harmonics experienced from power received from the Australian national grid. The electricity which is delivered to a property is not necessarily ‘clean’ and therefore properties can experience harmonics. Harmonic currents lead to power...

Basic Datas of Harmonics and VFD Harmonic Distortion Harmonic Distortin is a measure of the amount of deviation from a pure sinusoidal wave form that can be caused by a non-linear load (a VFD is considered a non-linear load because it only draws current from the power line as required). Distorted Waveform Distorted Waveform = fundamental (50Hz sinusoidal waveform) + multiples of the fundamental fr...

Problems of Line Side Harmonics The two main line side harmonic concerns are the problems caused in the facility where they are being generated and the degree of harmonic infection passed to neighboring facilities. The degree of impact for either area depends on the number, size and frequency of use of all linear and non-linear loads . Mainly introduce harmoncs within a facility here. Within a fac...

Why harmonics analysis? When a voltage and/or current waveform is distorted, it causes abnormal operating conditions in a power system such as: Voltage Harmonics can cause additional heating in induction and synchronous motors and generators. Voltage Harmonics with high peak values can weaken insulation in cables, windings, and capacitors. Voltage Harmonics can cause malfunction of different elect...

Power Factor Penalty An electric rate may also include additional charges when the customer has a power factor less than some preset limit, typically between 80 and 90 percent. This is called a power factor penalty since it is a penalty assessed on the customers electrical bill for lower than optimum power factor. Special devices called capacitors can be installed by either the utility or the cust...

Power factor penalty in power bills We've found that many people struggle to understand how Power Factor (PF) impacts demand charges. Frequently, end use customers pay a significant premium each month in demand charges because their PF is below a threshold set by the utility in the rate tariff. Oftentimes its not obvious to the untrained eye when there are extra charges associated with a bad PF on...

An example of how to calculate the capacity of reactive power (kVAr)? An Motor is supplying a load of 700 kW at a P.F (Power factor) of 0.65. What size of Capacitor in kVAr is required to raise the P.F (Power Factor) to unity (1)? And how many more kW can the motor supply for the same kVA loading when P.F improved. Supplying kW = 700 kW Original P.F = Cosθ1 = 0.65 Final P.F = Cosθ2 = 1 θ1 = C...

ZDDQ Active Harmonic Filter Active harmonic filter is connected in parallel with non-linear loads, and uses one set of CT to detect the load current. It calculates each order harmonic current by FFT algorithms in its DSP microchips, and then generates a compensating current with the same amplitude but opposite phase angles to the detected harmonic current, which cancels out the original load harmo...
