The paper contributes an improved harmonic load flow formulation with fewer convergence problems but the same accurate results as traditional formulations. The proposed formulation approaches the harmonic load flow problem ...

Wind farm harmonic emissions are a well-known power quality problem, but little data based on actual wind farm measurements are available in literature. In this paper, harmonic emissions of an 18MWwind farm are investigated ...

Wind power plant stability can be affected by the interaction between the wind turbine and the resonances in the collector grid. This paper presents an electrical resonance instability study applied to wind power plants. The ...

Energy saving policies have boosted the use of light emitting diode (LED) lamps in distribution networks. These lamps are non-linear loads which inject harmonic currents into the distribution system, which has led to a ...

Magnetic ballast discharge lamp modeling has been extensively studied because these lamps can be an important source of harmonics. Discharge lamp models usually represent the arc voltage by a square waveform. However, this ...

The increase of electric vehicle (EV) battery chargers connected to electric networks could lead to future harmonic problems in power systems. These loads are nonlinear devices that inject harmonic currents and pollute ...
