Moving from a conventional silicon-based Active Harmonic Filter to one using Silicon Carbide (SiC) MOSFETs represents a major technological leap, and the cooling system is directly impacted. Here’s a detailed look at the cooling system of a SiC Active Harmonic Filter, highlighting how it differs from traditional IGBT-based AHFs. The Core Advantage: Why SiC Changes the Game Silicon ...
The choice between installing an Active Harmonic Filter (AHF) on the power side (at the Point of Common Coupling - PCC) versus the load side (at the source of harmonics) is a critical design decision with significant technical and financial implications. Here is a detailed analysis comparing both installation strategies. Executive Summary Load-Side Installation (Local Compensation): Targets s...
