Understanding Power Quality: Harmonics, Parallel Resonance, and Derating Transformers - Pr, Study notes of Electrical and Electronics Engineering

This lecture from ece 528 covers various aspects of power quality, including harmonic phase sequence, system response, parallel and series resonance, effects of harmonic distortion, and derating transformers serving non-linear loads. The document also discusses real-world examples and the importance of keeping heating due to harmonics below rated load without harmonics.

ECE 528 – Understanding Power Quality

Lecture 20 2

Today…

  • Harmonic phase sequence from waveforms
  • System response
  • Parallel resonance
  • Effects of harmonic distortion
  • Interharmonics

Lecture 20 3

Harmonic phase sequence clarification

  • A graphical example of harmonic phase sequence
    • Three-phase fundamental and 2nd^ harmonic waveforms

A

B

C

Sequence is ABC for fundamental, ACB for 2nd harmonic

Lecture 20 4

Triplen harmonics on three-phase systems

  • Triplen harmonics in a three-phase system
    • Three-phase fundamental and 3rd harmonic waveforms

Third harmonic waveforms are in phase – they add in the neutral

Lecture 20 7

Series resonance

  • Created by series combination of transformer and capacitor
  • May affect customers with no non-linear load
  • May damage utility capacitors near customers with non-linear loads

Lecture 20 8

A real-world example

Lecture 20 9

Effects of harmonic distortion

  • Capacitors
    • Overheating
    • Blown fuses
    • May provide a path to the neutral for triplen harmonics
  • Transformers
    • Harmonic current and voltage distortion will contribute to transformer heating

Lecture 20 10

Derating transformers serving non-linear loads

  • Note corrections to PSQ text:
    • p213, “table 5.2” should be “table 6.5” (p275)
    • Also, eq. 5.30 is wrong; K-factor is not the same as FHL (Harmonic Loss Factor) See FPQ eq. 6. and 6.69 for correct definitions.
  • Transformer losses due to harmonic currents:
    • I 2 R losses – increased RMS current=more losses
    • Eddy-Current Losses – increase with the square of the current frequency

Lecture 20 13

  • Changes to losses with harmonics:
  • In per-unit…

The summation is a factor that increases the RMS value of the current in the I^2 R losses based on harmonic content. IR is rated current.

  • Changes to losses with harmonics:
  • In per-unit…

The summation is a factor that increases the eddy current losses by the square of the frequency causing the losses.

Derating transformers serving non-linear loads FPQ pg 216-

  • F HL – the harmonic loss factor for eddy currents:

FHL h

∑⎡⎣⎡⎣ I h (^ pu)⎤⎦^2 ⋅h^2 ⎤⎦

h

∑⎡ ⎣I h^2 (pu^ )⎤ ⎦

See other forms of this equation in eq. 6.60, p. 218.

Lecture 20 19

Derating transformers serving non-linear loads

  • Example from FPQ p. 219.
    • From table 6.4:
    • From table 6.6:

PEC_R :=0.

FHL

:= FHL =6.

Lecture 20 20

Derating transformers serving non-linear loads

  • The result:
  • For a current with the harmonic spectrum described in table 6.5, the transformer should be derated to 77.16% of its nameplate capacity.

Derating

1 +PEC_R 1 +FHL ⋅PEC_R

Derating 0.

The “allowable current” calculation in P.U. translates directly to a derating factor

Lecture 20 21

Derating transformers serving non-linear loads

  • Another way – The K-factor (FPQ p. 221):
  • Using K-factor, we compute the K-factor for a given current and select a K-rated transformer accordingly.
  • Note: K-factor depends on the magnitude of the current
    • we can reduce K by reducing overall loading; in effect derating the transformer.

Other impacts

  • Motors
    • For motors, the impact of harmonic voltages is similar to that of negative sequence fundamental frequency voltages – heating
  • Telecommunication systems
    • Higher frequency currents on the power system will more easily couple to nearby communication circuits
