Fundamentals of Nonlinear Loads Fourier representation 1.1 Nonlinear Loads
1.2 Harmonic Phenomena • Harmonics in voltage and current • CAUSE: Current • Effect: Voltage
Power Factor • Consider first a sinusoidal voltage and current
RMS In case of harmonics,
Harmonic Phase Sequences • In a balanced three-phase circuit: • the fundamental defines the positive phase sequence (or rotation) such as ABC or xyz or 321, and the 4th, 7th, 10th, …, are also positive sequence • the 2nd, 5th, 8th, 11th ,…, are negative sequence (eg CBA) • the 3rd, 6th, 9th, …, are zero seq (all in phase)
Triplen harmonics • Harmonic order h values that are multiples of 3 are called triplen harmonics • If the three phase circuit is balanced, the triplen harmonics are all in phase (zero sequence) • triplen harmonic line currents will be additive at the neutral of a wye circuit by KCL (zero triplens if three-wire ungrounded wye or if delta) • triplen harmonic line-line voltages will be zero by KVL
Harmonic Indices • Total harmonic distortion = THD
Harmonic Indices • Total demand distortion = TDD
Harmonics Sources • Conventional Sources • Single-phase power supplies • Fluorescent lighting • ASD for HVAC and elevators • Industrial Sources • Power converters • DC and AC drives • Saturable devices
