Characteristics of reactive energy Reactive energy is not consumed, it is not useful for the system. Although it does not produce useful work, it is necessary to neutralize or compensate it. The reactive energy is measured in kVArh (Kilo volt-amp reactive hour). Reactive energy is created in devices or machinery that works with motors or transformers powered by the alternating current that reaches...
Power Quality Problems in Data Center Due to the uninterrupted power supply of the load in the data center room, a large number of UPS, switching power supplies and inverter air conditioners are used. The input stages of these devices are all three-phase arrangements, which generate a lot of harmonics when used. The switching power supply and UPS equipment first rectify the AC into DC, and then co...
Power Factor Correction Power Factor Correction improves the phase angle between the supply voltage and current while the real power consumption in watts remains the same, because as we have seen a pure reactance does not consume any real power. Adding an impedance in the form of capacitve reactance in parallel with the coil above will decrease Θ and thus increases the power f...
3 phase load current imbalance In three phase systems, current unbalance is defined as the maximum deviation of any phase current from average divided by average current. Current unbalance can occur due to reasons within the control of the end user or outside the control of end user. Some of the reasons for current unbalance (or imbalance) are: Source voltage from the electric utility is unbalance...
The utility model patent discloses an Enhanced Active Power Filter with a three-phase unbalance adjustment function. The IGBT converter of the Enhanced Active Power Filter is a three-level three-phase four-wire four-arm PWM transformer. The fourth bridge arm is connected in parallel with the remaining three bridge arms, and the midpoint of the fourth bridge arm is connected to the neutra...
The existing power grid is usually equipped with a large number of nonlinear electronic components. These nonlinear electronic components will generate corresponding harmonics during the working process, among which high-order harmonics will interfere with the electrical equipment in the power grid and seriously affect the power supply. Power quality in the grid. In order to reduce the adverse eff...
Due to the rapid development of power electronic technology, the nonlinear characteristics of industrial and agricultural power loads, especially transportation and civil electrical products are becoming more and more serious, and the power factor of users is also declining. Therefore, reactive power compensation devices are more and more widely used. The power compensation device is used to suppl...
Does Active Harmonic Filter can saving energy? YTPQC-AHF Active Harmonic Filter can save energy by reducing the amount of harmonic distortion in a power system. Harmonic distortion can cause power losses and reduce the efficiency of electrical equipment, so reducing it can help to save energy. How does active harmonic filter save energy? YTPQC-AHF Active Harmonic filters can save energy by ...
