In the presence of harmonics, the total power factor is defined as total power factor = TPF = cos0 = Ptotal Stotal (5-6) where Ptotal and Stota1 are defined in Eq. 5-4. Since capacitors only provide reactive power at the funda- mental frequency, they cannot correct the power factor in the presence of harmonics.
This paper proposes a dynamic capacitor (D-CAP) based on the family of inverter-less active filters that is able to provide a dynamically controllable capacitance with active harmonic filtering integrated into the same unit. This new device is seen to be compact, and is likely to be cost competitive against simple switched shunt capacitors.
If any harmonic source generates currents near this resonant frequency, they will flow through the low-impedance path, causing interfer- ence in communication circuits along the resonant path, as well as excessive voltage distortion at the capacitor. Capacitor Bank Behaves as a Harmonic Source.
Capacitor Bank Behaves as a Harmonic Source. There are many capacitor banks installed in indus- trial and overhead distribution systems. Each capaci- tor bank is a source of harmonic currents of order h, which is determined by the system short-circuit impedance (at the capacitor location) and the capac- itor size.
Interaction of Harmonics with Capacitors 213 the feeder. This may allow the circuit to carry addi- tional loads and save costs for upgrading the network when extra capacity is required. In addi- tion, the lower current flow reduces resistive losses in the circuit. • Improved Voltage Profile.
The main reason is that capacitors form either series or parallel resonant circuits, which magnify and distort their currents and voltages. 5 CHAPTER Interaction of Harmonics with Capacitors Capacitors are extensively used in power systems for voltage control, power-factor correction, filtering, and reactive power compensation.
