First, it must be comprehensive in that it adequately takes account of the complexity and dynamics of harmonic phenomena. Secondly, it must be flexible enough to accommodate varying conditions and different networks. Thirdly, it must be effective in guaranteeing the compliance with specified compatibility conditions necessary for proper operation of the system (equipment and loads). Finally, it must be simple, such that the operating engineer is able to understand and apply it whenever necessary. With these issues in mind, this paper presents a qualitative analysis of the existing standards €or harmonic distortion by pointing to their limitations and their conflicting philosophical bases while emphasizing the need for an integrated approach that explicitly and comprehensively considers the complexity and dynamics of the harmonic problem. An oveniew of existing standards is followed by a description of fundamental/philosophical issues that need consideration and integration in the preparation of harmonics standards.

C . side. The paper also analyses the experimental results obtained during tests carried out on a prototype C.T.. comparing them with the values calculated from the theoretical model. I M R O D U f l I ON The detection of the harmonic content of unidirectional currents generated by static convertors presents considerable difficulties in certain cases, particularly whet the harmonic current amplitudes are of the order of 10to lo-+ times the D.C. component of the current. During an earlier study 121 an algorithm has been developed for the design of a C.T. employing an air gap in its core. This device makes possible the measurement of harmonic currents only. and presents the double advantage of filtering out the D.C. and providing D.C. isolation between the measuring circuit and the power system. At the same time, it assures an acceptable ratio error over the frequency range 10+104 Hz. In I21 it is also described the development of a mathematical model for the evaluation of the ratio error over the entire frequency range mentioned. This model takes into account the influence of magnetic phenomena (eddy currents in laminations and secondary leakage inductance) as well as the effect of parasitic capacitances. The present study considers the problem of calculating the design parameters of the C.T. model. Particular attention is given to the calculation of the equivalent parasitic capacitance, arriving at the determination of a simplified expression for calculating the main resonance frequency in high-frequency operation. The paper shows many test results, obtained on a suitably constructed C.T. prototype. These consist of frequency response curves (at different A . C . and D.C. current amplitudes), examples of transformation of some waveforms and curves showing the transient response to a step input. These results, compared with those obtained by numerical simulation, confirm the quality of the model adopted and of the method used for calculating its parameters. The results also yield further informations i n guiding and improving the design. CALCULATION PARAKtXERS The lumped-parameter electrical model adopted for the study of the C.T. operation is the well-known I-type equivalent circuit. Given the width of the band covered (10+104 Hz). the parameters cannot be considered as constant. Ihis applies particularly to the derived branch parameters (GO, L o ) . which are sensitive to the influence of eddy currents. As for the distributed capacitances of the windings. which affect the performance at high frequencies, an approximate representation 1s possible, enabling the calculation of the first resonance frequency. 731s consists o f representing the overall capacitance effect by means of a single equivalent parasitic capacitance C, p","PeriodicalId":438464,"journal":{"name":"ICHPS V International Conference on Harmonics in Power Systems.","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1992-09-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122521195","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
