Determining additional power losses in the electricity supply systems due to current's higher harmonics

Abstract

current higher harmonics to the loss of power, to the magnitude of total losses. This is important because the past decades have seen an increase in the number of electric energy pulse consumers, which relates both to household appliances and industrial equipment. That leads to an increase in the content of currents higher harmonics in the electricity supply systems and, consequently, to the increased power losses associated with higher harmonics, which necessitate the use 6

Improving the harmonic composition of output voltage in multilevel inverters under an optimum mode of amplitude modulation

“…Postgraduate Student** Е-mail: D.Hordiienko@i.ua The THD parameter reflects the percentage of the higher harmonics relative to the first harmonic's voltage signal. In turn, the higher harmonics cause a series of negative effects in the power supply systems and various loads, which include the faster aging of insulation, electromagnetic interference with communication systems, as well as additional power losses in the active resistance of power supply systems and windings of induction motors [13].…”

Research into energy characteristics of single-phase active four-quadrant rectifiers with the improved hysteresis modulation

“…To determine the energy-saving effect from implementing the improved hysteresis algorithm of hysteresis modulation, we calculated power losses in the active four-quadrant converter at its output voltage of 3,000 V [24].…”
