TLDR
In this article, a harmonic suppressing device is provided to filter higher harmonic currents generated by a higher harmonic current source of the power system such as, for example, a cycloconverter.Abstract:
A harmonic suppressing device provided in a power system such as, for example, a transmission and distribution system or a power generating system, to filter higher harmonic currents generated by a higher harmonic current source of the power system such as, for example, a cycloconverter. The harmonic suppressing device comprises, as the principal components thereof, a passive filter serving as a high-order higher harmonic filtering unit for filtering higher harmonic currents of comparatively high order among those generated by the higher harmonic current source, and an active filter serving as low-order higher harmonic filtering unit for filtering higher harmonic currents of comparatively low orders among those generated by the higher harmonic current source. The active filter comprises: a main active filtering circuit comprising a plurality of switching transistors, rectifying diodes combined with the switching transistors, respectively, a capacitor, and a reactor; an operating circuit which calculates controlling data for controlling the commutating action of the main active filtering circuit on the basis of the detected values of the higher harmonic currents that flows into the power source side of the power system and the detected values of the output voltage of the higher harmonic current source; and a control circuit which gives control signals such as, for example, pulse width modulating signals to the main active filtering circuit. The harmonic suppressing device is capable of filtering higher harmonic currents in a wide frequency band.read more
