Harmonics

1 Description
In this example the harmonic currents injection is calculated according to IEC 61000-3-6 /
IEC 61400-21. The harmonic currents spectrum of the specific wind turbine type is linked
with the wind turbine models (Static Generators WTG...). The spectrum includes integer
harmonics and non-integer harmonics. The results for the point of common coupling (PCC)
are displayed:
Harmonic currents in A
Harmonic voltages in % based on Un (u = 100 U / Un)
Harmonic Distortion in % based on fundamental frequency voltage
(HD = 100 U / U1)
To execute the harmonics calculation, change to the Harmonics / Power Quality toolbar
and press the Calculate Harmonic Load Flow button.
