Determination of the capacitive output power of shunt passive filters

摘要

Shunt Passive Filters (SPF) are an economically well-founded and technically effective solution for reactive power compensation and solving the problems with harmonics, caused by non-linear loads, in the electrical power systems of medium and large industrial enterprises. The elements parameters definition for each SPF is a specific task that is specifically solved for each power supply system.This paper presents a methodology, algorithm and software program for designing Medium Voltage (MV) filter-compensating devices. Particular attention is paid to the determination and distribution of the compensating power among the different harmonic filters. The results from this work can be useful in designing and optimizing the efficiency of the medium voltage shunt passive filters.
