This study proposes a novel random pulse-width modulation (PWM) technique with a constant switching frequency utilizing a random offset voltage. The proposed PWM technique spreads switching harmonics by varying the position of an active voltage vector without a switching frequency variation. The implementation of the proposed PWM technique is simple because it does not require additional hardware and complex algorithm. The proposed random PWM technique is compared with the conventional PWM technique on the factors of harmonic spectrum, total harmonic distortion, and harmonic spread factor to confirm the harmonic spread effect. The validity of the proposed method is verified by simulations and experiments on a three-phase inverter drive system.

This article introduces technique to reduce harmonic by using the $5^{th}$ and $7^{th}$ harmonic tune filter and line reactor in the comparison to the technique of intervening firing method at the pulse of the 6-pulse phase-controlled converter in every 1/6 period. The design of the technique introduced in this article is to reduce the harmonic distortion of the current and the voltage resulted from three-phase thyristor phase-controlled converter. The waveform obtained from the experiment was analyzed on the spectrum of the current, voltage and the total harmonic distortion. The double firing method causes zero vectors of output voltage and input current. Designing the mechanism of the converter based on the idea of Park Vector Theory, the number of harmonic distortion in the intervening firing method were compared to those in normal firing method.

This paper presents a simple approach for the selective harmonic elimination (SHE) of multilevel inverter based on the transistor-clamped H-bridge (TCHB) family. The SHE modulation is derived from the sinusoidal voltage-angle equal criteria corresponding to the optimized switching angles. The switching angles are computed offline by solving transcendental non-linear equations characterizing the harmonic contents using the Newton-Raphson method to produce an optimum stepped output. Simulation and experimental tests are conducted for verification of the analytical solutions. An Altera DE2 field-programmable gate array (FPGA) board is used as the digital controller device in order to verify the proposed SHE modulation in real-time applications. An analysis of the voltage total harmonic distortion (THD) has been obtained for multiple output voltage cases. In terms of the THD, the results showed that the higher the number of output levels, the lower the THD due to an increase number of harmonic orders being eliminated.

This paper dealt with the influence of harmonic voltages on arrester diagnostics and its compensation method by using a designed Pspice arrester model. A pure sinusoidal voltage and its 3$^{rd}$ harmonic voltage were applied to the model, and the leakage current components were analyzed. The simulation results have shown that the peak value of resistive leakage current depends not only on the phase of the 3$^{rd}$ harmonic voltage but also on the magnitude of it. In this paper, an approximated 5$^{th}$ order polynomial formula by the Least-Square-Technique was derived, and correction factors which compensate the error caused by the 3$^{rd}$ harmonic voltage were calculated.

This paper propse the DC link capacitor voltage balancing control for three level neutral point clamped converter with harmonic component injection method. The injcetion voltage consists of harmonic component and DC link capacitor voltage difference. Theoretical analysis is provided to balance the DC link voltage, and it shows that harmonic component compensates the unbalanced condition between the capacitors. Both simulations and experiments are carried out to show that the voltage unbalance have been decreased by the proposed method.

This paper deals with a Z-source active power filter(Z-AFU) for mitigation voltage THD(total harmonic distortion) due to voltage harmonic propagation(amplification) in 6.6kv power distribution system. Bus voltage harmonic signal is detected by 60Hz butterworth BPF(band pass filter). As an ESS(energy storage system) of the proposed system, PEM fuel cells(Ballard NEXA, 1.2kw) is employed. Test results based on PSIM(power electronics simulation tool) validate the proposed approach.

최근 전력 전자 응용 기기의 사용증가로 비선형 특성 부하에 의한 고조파가 상당히 발생하고 있으며, 이에 의한 영향으로 배전시스템의 변압기 열화, 소자의 고장, 통신 간섭 등의 여러 가지 문제를 발생시키고 있다. 따라서 배전 시스템에서의 고조파 수준과 전달특성을 정확하게 분석하기 위하여 배전시스템의 효과적인 실측정과 모델링에 관한 연구가 필요한 실정이다. 본 논문에서는 고조파 관리기준 IEC61000-3-6 토대로 배전 시스템의 고조파 특성을 해석하기 위하여 공통 결합점(Point of Common Coupling : PCC)을 선택하였다. 실 배전 시스템의 PCC 지점에서 고조파 전압, 전류를 측정하여, 고조파 분포, 비선형 부하 성분 및 고조파 전압, 전류 왜형률 (Voltage/Current Total Harmonic Distortion: VTHD/ITHD)을 분석하였다. 또한 정상상태에서 고조파 임피던스, 전압, 전류을 해석을 통하여 실 배전시스템을 효과적이고 정확하게 모델링 되었을 확인하였다. 또한 고조파 전류원 발생시에 고조파 전압, 전류를 비교 분석하여 고조파 전달특성을 조사하였다.

This paper presents an improved direct power control (DPC) strategy for grid-connected voltage source inverter (VSI) under unbalanced and harmonic grid voltage conditions. Based on the mathematic model of VSI with the negative sequence, 5th and 7th harmonic voltage components consideration, a PI controller is used in the proposed DPC strategy to achieve the average output power regulation. Furthermore, vector PI controller with the resonant frequency tuned at the two times and six times grid fundamental frequency is adopted to regulate both negative and harmonic components, and then two alternative targets of the balanced/sinusoidal current and smooth active/reactive output power can be achieved. Finally, simulation results based on MATLAB validate the availability of the proposed DPC strategy.

This paper deals with harmonic components of the voltage on high temperature superconducting wire carrying an alternating current. HTS wire is used to manufacture superconducting power applications carrying an alternating current. Typically, international standard, IEC 61788-3 is used for critical current measurement. Thus, it is not ideal that critical current criteria in dc are adapted to superconducting power devices to decide the operating current of the devices. In this paper, we confirmed odd harmonic voltage on HTS wires carrying an AC. The ratio between harmonic components and fundamental component can be significant clues to decide the critical current criteria for HTS wire and its power applications in AC circumstance.

Nonlinear loads change the sinusoidal nature of the ac power current, thereby resulting in the flow of harmonic currents in the ac power system that can cause interference with communication circuits and other type of equipment. To minimize the damage, it is needed to limit harmonics current and voltage. Harmonic measurement system was developed to measure individual voltage and current harmonic continuously and save harmonic data on computer. We measured all 154kV feeders in a steel making company substation. Voltage and current distortion limits for general transmission systems was suggested We found some feeders exceeded current distortion limits. As result voltage harmonic exceeded standard limits.
