I. Why Are Non-Linear Loads So Ubiquitous in Our Daily Lives? The fundamental reason is technological advancement and our relentless pursuit of efficiency and control. The core of non-linear loads is various power electronic devices that precisely control electrical energy through rapid switching. Here are the specific reasons for their ubiquity: Demand for Energy Savings and Efficiency:...
How to scientifically configure Static Var Generators (SVGs) and Active Power Filters (APFs) in wind farm applications. Wind farms, particularly those using Doubly-Fed Induction Generators (DFIGs), are not only power producers but also major sources of power quality issues. The need and logic for configuring mitigation equipment here are significantly different from traditional commercial and indu...
How to scientifically configure Static Var Generators (SVGs) and Active Power Filters (APFs) in photovoltaic (PV) power plants. The power quality management of PV plants shares similarities with wind farms but has its own unique emphases. The core logic is: PV inverters are themselves harmonic sources and require reactive power support, while the grid has strict requirements for reactive powe...
