Abstract |
The interest for harmonic problems has been increasing due to the increment of nonlinear loads. The loads such as DC power system, personal computers, UPS system, inverters and converters operate as harmonic current sources. In this paper, a new type of the passive filter, Hybrid Harmonic Filter (HHF) is suggested to mitigate harmonic problems in power systems. The HHF is developed for reducing harmonic current, especially on the system that includes 6-pulse bridge rectifiers. Also, it is expected to prevent the overheating of transformers and feeders due to overcurrent and to correct the power factor. |
