The market's preference for the model of "sampling on the high-voltage side and mitigation on the low-voltage side" is not accidental. It is the optimal solution determined by a combination of factors including technical feasibility, economic efficiency, safety, and mitigation effectiveness. The logic behind this can be understood with a simple analogy: A doctor performs a "blood te...
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...
The Short Summary A healthy AHF typically produces two types of noise: A low hum from the internal reactor (inductor) and cooling fans. This is normal. A high-frequency "switching" whine or buzz from the Insulated-Gate Bipolar Transistors (IGBTs). This is usually very faint. If the noise becomes loud, intrusive, or changes significantly, it is often a sign of a problem. Detailed Breakdow...
The YTPQC-SVG Static Var Generator redefines reactive power control through its blend of cutting-edge hardware and intelligent design. At its heart lies a 3-level IGBT inverter capable of delivering sinusoidal output currents with minimal harmonic distortion—a critical advantage over conventional systems. This ensures smooth, jitter-free compensation even under abrupt loa...
EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) testing for an Active Harmonic Filter AHF is critical and non-negotiable. An AHF(APF) is a power electronics device (like a high-frequency inverter) that injects canceling currents into a noisy electrical system. If poorly designed, it can become a significant source of electromagnetic interference (EMI) itself, disrupting other equipment. Conversely, it mu...
While the terms are sometimes used interchangeably, there's a key conceptual difference between Real-Time Power Factor Correction and Active Power Factor Correction. 1. Real-Time Power Factor Correction (PFC) This is a functional description. It describes any power factor correction system that can dynamically adjust its compensation in response to changes in the load. Goal:&nb...
The Problem: Variable Speed Drives Generate Harmonics What is a Variable Speed Drive (VSD/VFD)?A Variable Speed Drive (VSD), also commonly called a Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) or Adjustable Speed Drive (ASD), is an electronic device that controls the speed and torque of an AC electric motor by varying the motor's input frequency and voltage. How Do They Cause Harmonics?The internal design of a ...
