| Summary: | Harmonics, Power Systems, and Smart Grids, Second Edition compiles the most relevant aspects of harmonics in a way that the unfamiliar reader can better grasp the subject matter and the experienced reader can directly access specific subjects of interest. The text begins with a definition of harmonics, along with analytical expressions for electrical parameters under nonsinusoidal situations, and then: Discusses important and widely used industry standards to control harmonic distortion levels ;Describes methods to mitigate the effects of harmonics, detailing the operation principles and design of passive filters and active filter fundamentals ;Presents alternative methods, such as stiffer AC sources, power converters with increased number of pulses, series reactors, and load reconfiguration ;Reviews the elements that play a role in the study of the propagation of harmonic currents in a distribution network ;Explains how to determine power losses in electrical equipment attributed to harmonic waveform distortion ;Covers harmonics from solar and wind power converters and power electronics in FACTS and HVDC technologies ;Explores harmonics from electric vehicles connected to the grid, superconductive fault current limiters, and electric vehicle charging stations. Featuring three new chapters, a number of new examples and figures, and updates throughout, Harmonics, Power Systems, and Smart Grids, Second Edition provides a comprehensive reference on harmonic current generation, propagation, and control in electrical power networks, including the broadly cited smart grid. |
