This paper presents a comprehensive study about a Simplified Rail Power Conditioner (SRPC) based on a half-bridge indirect AC/DC/AC Modular Multilevel Converter (MMC) and a V/V traction power transformer. The proposed system with a half-bridge MMC can decrease the costs, reduce the control complexity, and require less hardware devices in comparison with the rail power conditioner based on a full-bridge...
The paper analyses the power quality in power substations from residential and educational buildings (campus university). Measurements were performed in two days, one in a weekday, and one in a weekend, to highlight differences. Measurements in the power substation were performed using power quality analyser. Electrical measurements were performed for voltages and currents spectra, Fresnel diagrams,...
In recent years, with the rapid development of the power electronic technology, various power electronic devices and nonlinear elements, especially of many kinds of rectifier and switcher, are applied widely in power system. Harmonics have produced serious adverse effects in the equipment of power generators and distribution system, and of their control and protection, as well as the users and the...
Diode rectifier with large DC bus capacitors, used in the front ends of Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs), draw discontinuous current from the power system resulting in current distortion and hence voltage distortion. Typically, the power system can handle current distortion without showing signs of voltage distortion. However, when the majority of the load on a distribution feeder is made up of VFDs,...
In order to reduce the impact of harmonic and negative sequence on the power system, in traction substation can use Scott wiring traction transformer. By using MATLAB to establish a Scott wiring transformer model, the 110 kV side of the three-phase harmonic voltage and current with its harmonic content and negative sequence can be simulated. Comparing simulated results and actual data of one transformer...
With the increasing of non-linear loads in electric power system, power quality distortion has become a serious issue in recent years. In paper and pulp industries, due to presence of concentrated high power non-linear loads such as electric drives, this problem is a greater concern. In this paper, the impacts of power quality distortions such as voltage sag and swell on the operation of electric...
