At the end of the course, learners  are able to:

1. equip the necessary skills to handle power system harmonics related problems; 

2. identify the cause or source of the problem and assess the severity of each problem with respect to the vulnerability of the affected devices and;

3. use computer modelling and simulations to examine the system responses and evaluate the effectiveness of various solutions.

Introduction

Fourier series; waveform symmetry

Harmonic Sources

Single-phase rectification Three-phase current-source and voltage-source conversions

Effects of Harmonic Distortion

System response to harmonics; resonances; triplens Effects on power system equipment, rotating machines, transformers and capacitors Harmonic interferences

Coping with Harmonic Distortions

Solutions for triplens Passive and active filters

 

 

For engineers who wish to upgrade their technical knowledge and skills in the area of power and energy engineering, which can be applied in the power supply industry.
