Francisco C. De La Rosa, "Harmonics and Power Systems"
CRC | 2006 | ISBN: 0849330165 | 208 pages | PDF | 5,5 MB
Harmonics have always been a problem with industrial loads, but now more
and more consumer and commercial power loads are cropping up as sources
of harmonic currents. Approaching the problem from both utility and
end-user perspectives, Harmonics and Power Systems addresses the most
relevant aspects in the generation and propagation of harmonic currents
in electrical networks. Grounded in years of practical experience
working and teaching in the electric, oil, and steel industries in
several countries to address the harmonics problem, De La Rosa
elucidates the concepts and equations with worked examples and various
illustrations generated using current industrial software tools. From a
general overview of the principles and equations used to describe and
analyze harmonic currents to the fundamentals of power losses in
harmonic environments, this field-tested book offers detailed coverage
of passive harmonic filters, harmonic propagation analysis, and
alternatives to filtering. The author provides a clear-cut procedure for
evaluating harmonic current propagation and assessing their penetration
into electrical networks. He also discusses the most important and
widely used industry standards to control harmonic distortion levels.
Recognizing the diversity of power networks, this book examines the role
of specific characteristics of various types of networks. Harmonics and
Power Systems is an easy-to-follow, practical introduction for novices
and a useful problem-solving tool for seasoned professionals.
