    WHY HARMONIC ANALYSIS ?

    When a voltage and/or current waveform is distorted, it causes abnormal operating conditions in a power system such as:

    Voltage Harmonics can cause additional heating in induction and

    synchronous motors and generators.

    Voltage Harmonics with high peak values can weaken insulation in

    cables, windings, and capacitors.

    Voltage Harmonics can cause malfunction of different electronic

    components and circuits that utilize the voltage waveform for

    synchronization or timing.

    Current Harmonics in motor windings can create Electromagnetic

    Interference (EMI).

  • JUNE 2002 IEEE PESC-02 5

    Current Harmonics flowing through cables can cause higher

    heating over and above the heating that is created from the

    fundamental component.

    Current Harmonics flowing through a transformer can cause

    higher heating over and above the heating that is created by the

    fundamental component.

    Current Harmonics flowing through circuit breakers and switch-

    gear can increase their heating losses.

    RESONANT CURRENTS which are created by current harmonics

    and the different filtering topologies of the power system can

    cause capacitor failures and/or fuse failures in the capacitor or

    other electrical equipment.

    False tripping of circuit breakers ad protective relays.

    Harmonic sequence is the phase rotation relationship with respect to the fundamental component.

    Positive sequence harmonics ( 4th, 7th, 10th , . (6n+1) th ) have the same phase rotation as the fundamental component. These harmonics circulate between the phases.

    Negative sequence harmonics ( 2nd, 5th, 8th (6n-1) th ) have the opposite phase rotation with respect to the fundamental component. These harmonics circulate between the phases.

    Zero sequence harmonics ( 3rd, 6th, 9th, .. (6n-3) th ) do not produce a rotating field. These harmonics circulate between the phase and neutral or ground. These third order or zero sequence harmonics, unlike positive and negative sequence harmonic currents, do not cancel but add up arithmetically at the neutral bus.

    EXAMPLE 1

    A periodic, sinusoidal voltage of instantaneous value tsin2200v

    Is applied to a nonlinear load impedance. The resulting instantaneous current is

    given by: ooo 60t3sin1060t2sin1045tsin202i

    Calculate the components P, Q, D of the apparent voltamperes and hence calculate the displacement factor, the distortion factor and the power factor.

    Solution

    tsin2200v

    ooo 60t3sin1060t2sin1045tsin202i

    The presence of the nonlinearity causes frequency components of current (i.e. the

    second and third harmonic terms) that are not present in the applied voltage.

    The rms voltage and current at the supply are:

    From the possible compensation viewpoint it is interesting to note that LXS

    and LQ differ by significant amount.

    LXS could be defined as that component of the load apparent voltamperes that

    Is obtained by the combination of supply voltage harmonics with quadrature

    Components of corresponding frequency load current harmonics.

  • JUNE 2002 IEEE PESC-02 32

    Similarly the definition of active voltamperes LRS could be given by that

    component of the load apparent voltamperes that is obtained by the combination

    of supply voltage harmonics with in-phase components of corresponding

    frequency load current harmonics.

    Both LRS and LXS are entirely fictitious and non-physical. The active

    voltamperes LRS Is not to be compares in importance with the average power

    LP which is a real physical property of the circuit. Term LRS Is merely the

    analytical complement of term LXS

    Term LXS the energy-storage reactive voltamperes, is that component

    of the load apparent voltamperes that can be entirely compensated (for sinusoidal

    supply voltage) or minimized (for nonsinusoidal supply voltage) by energy-storage

    methods.

    HARMONIC STANDARDS

    International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) European

    Standards.

    - EN 61000-3-2 Harmonic Emissions standards were first published

    as IEC 55-2 1982 and applied only to household appliances. It was

    revised and reissued in 1987 and 1995 with the applicability

    expanded to include all equipment with input current 16A per

    phase. However, until January 1st, 2001 a transition period is in

    effect for all equipment not covered by the standard prior to 1987.

    - The objective of EN 61000-3-2 (harmonics) is to test the equipment

    under the conditions that will produce the maximum harmonic

    amplitudes under normal operating conditions for each harmonic

    component. To establish limits for similar types of harmonics current

    distortion, equipment under test must be categorized in one of the

    following four classes.

  • JUNE 2002 IEEE PESC-02 35

    CLASS-A: Balanced three-phase equipment and all other equipment

    except that stated in one of the remaining three classes.

    CLASS-B: Portable electrical tools, which are hand held during normal

    operation and used for a short time only (few minutes)

    CLASS-C: Lighting equipment including dimming devices.

    CLASS-D: Equipment having an input current with special wave shape

    ( e.g.equipment with off-line capacitor-rectifier AC input

    circuitry and switch Mode power Supplies) and an active

    input power 600W.

    - Additional harmonic current testing, measurement techniques and

    instrumentation guidelines for these standards are covered in IEC

    1000-4-7.

  • JUNE 2002 IEEE PESC-02 36

    IEEE 519-1992 United States Standards on harmonic limits

    - IEEE limits service entrance harmonics. - The IEEE standard 519-1992 limits the level of harmonics at the

    customer service entrance or Point of Common Coupling (PCC).

    - With this approach the costumers current distortion is limited based on relative size of the load and the power suppliers voltage

    distortion based on the voltage level.

    IEEE 519 and IEC 1000-3-2 apply different philosophies, which

    effectively limit harmonics at different locations. IEEE 519 limits

    harmonics primarily at the service entrance while IEC 1000-3-2 is

    applied at the terminals of end-user equipment. Therefore, IEC limits

    will tend to reduce harmonic-related losses in an industrial plant

    wiring, while IEEE harmonic limits are designed to prevent

    interactions between neighbors and the power system.

    METHODOLOGY FOR COMPUTING DISTORTION

    Step 1: Compute the individual current harmonic distortion at each dedicated bus using different Software programs (i.e. SIMULINK, SPICE, e.t.c.) or tables that provide the current distortion of nonlinear loads.

    Step 2: Compute the voltage and current harmonic content at the Point of Common Coupling (PCC) which is located at the input of the industrial power system.

    - Each individual harmonic current at the PCC is the sum of harmonic current contribution from each dedicated bus.

    - The load current at PCC is the sum of the load current contribution from each dedicated bus.

    - The maximum demand load current at PCC can be found by computing the load currents for each branch feeder and multiply by a demand factor to obtain feeder demand. Then the sum of all feeder demands is divided by a diversity factor to obtain the maximum demand load current.

    - Harmonic current components that are close to the parallel resonant frequency are amplified.

    - Higher order harmonic currents at the PCC are reduced because the capacitors are low impedance at these frequencies.

    - The figure below shows the effect of adding capacitors on the 480 Volts bus for power factor correction.

    This figure shows that by adding some typical sizes of power factor correction capacitors will

    result in the magnification of the 5th and 7th harmonic components, which in turns makes it

    even more difficult to meet the IEEE 519-1992 harmonic current standards .

    - Power factor correction capacitors should not be used without turning reactors in case the

    adjustable speed drives are >10% of the plant load.

    CONCLUSIONS

    Solid State Power Control results in harmonic pollution above the tolerable limits.

    Harmonic Pollution increases industrial plant downtimes and power losses.

    Harmonic measurements should be made in industrial power systems in order (a) aid in the design of capacitor or filter banks, (b) verify the design and installation of capacitor or filter banks, (c) verify compliance with utility harmonic distortion requirements, and (d) investigate suspected harmonic problems.

    Computer software programs such as PSPICE and SIMULINK can be used in order to obtain the harmonic behavior of an industrial power plant.

    The series LC passive filter with resonance frequency at 4.7 is the most popular filter.

    The disadvantages of the the tuned LC filter is its dynamic response because it cannot predict the load requirements.

    The most popular Active Filter is the parallel or shunt type.

    Active Filter technology is slowly used in industrial plants with passive filters as a hybrid filter. These filters can be used locally at the inputs of different nonlinear loads.

    Active Filter Technology is well developed and many manufactures are fabricating Active filters with large capacities.

    A large number of Active Filters configurations are available to compensate harmonic current, reactive power, neutral current, unbalance current, and harmonics.

    The active filters can predict the load requirements and consequently they exhibit very good dynamic response.

    LC tuned filters can be used at PCC and the same time active filters can be used locally at the input of nonlinear loads.
