There are a couple of principles to achieve reactive power compensation. The simplest solution is without any doubts a combination of switched passive elements, i.e. switched capacitors and inductors. Figure 1 shows qualitatively the reactive current versus connected voltage of such a solution. The reactive current depends linearly on the grid voltage and as a consequence the reactive power change...

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...

Power Factor Correction The active power produced by the active current can alone be turned into an effective use for the consumer; while the reactive power produced by the reactive current does not yield usable power, and consequently, is not registered on the active performance meter. The reactive power has, however, a negative effect on generators, transformers, and conductor lines, while causi...

WHAT IS HARMONIC FILTERING? To understand the purpose of harmonic filtering, it helps to understand what harmonics are. The voltage of a standard 50Hz Alternating Current(AC) power supply swings between positive and negative 50 times a second, following a neat sine-wave. Linear AC electrical loads such as heaters or incandescent lights draw a current that follows this same sine-wave. The graph abo...

The ubiquity of synchronous generation should not be assumed in highly renewable power systems. Various problems may consequently arise, not least of which are the difficulties entailed in maintaining regional reactive power balance. Offering a potential solution to such problems, modern renewable generator technologies offer controllable reactive power resources. As many of these generators will ...

STATCOM - Static Synchronous Compensator It is a solid-state switching converter, capable of generating or absorbing independently controllable real and reactive power at its output terminals when it is fed from an energy source. STATCOM is considered as voltage-source converter that, from a given input of dc voltage, produces a set of 3-phase ac-output voltages, each in phase with and coupled to ...

Power quality “Power quality” can seem to be a pretty abstract term – how does one judge the quality of such an unseen commodity as electricity? But, as commercial and industrial facility managers know, good power quality can boost both productivity and employee safety, while poor power quality can mean a drain on the bottom line, thanks to damaged equipment, lost productivity and product spoilage...

Power factor correction Connected equipment (transformers, motors, air-conditioning, refrigerators, etc.) cause a phase angle between current and voltage.When the current is phase-shifted, it takes more current to deliver the same amount of active power. Impact of reactive power • Transmission equipment has to be sized for the apparent power, yet only active power is useful • Increased losses in t...

STATCOM STATCOM (Static Synchronous Compensator)continuously provides variable reactive power in response to voltage variations, supporting the stability of the grid. STATCOM operates according to voltage source converter (VSC) principles, combining unique PWM (pulse width modulation) with millisecond switching. STATCOM functions with a very limited need for harmonic filters, contributing to a sma...

How to calculate Harmonic Filter In power supply systems based on alternating current (AC) -- such as the main power distribution network from electric utilities -- non-linear loads can feed some amount of power back into the wiring. This feedback typically occurs in the form of harmonics: multiples of the frequency of the original AC wave. Harmonics need to be eliminated from a power circuit by a...

Relations between Reactive power,power factor and penalty Power Factor penalty is spelled out in the contract between the Power Company and Industrial or Commercial customer with large three phase loads. If the contract calls for 85% Power Factor, once the customer’s power factor falls below 85%, the Power Company bills the Customer according to the agreed penalty rates. Industrial loads are mostl...
