Case study of power harmonic passive filters design by using 6-pulse phase-controlled converter

Abstract

This paper presented the 5^th and 7^th power-harmonic filters using the tune and the line reactor design. PSpice program is used simulating the filters and making the real load (using 6-pulsd phase controlled converter) for experiment. Resulting waveform from the experiment can be used to analyze current, voltage spectrum, and THD (Total Harmonic Distortion)by using MathLAB Program. It is found that these methods make an insignificant difference in current and voltage spectrum.
