IEE PROCEEDINGS-GENERATION TRANSMISSION AND DISTRIBUTION
Harmonic resonance is of particular concern in the design and operation of
interconnected offshore power systems. This paper shows that it is possible
to attenuate such resonance using an active filter. A new control method i
s proposed which can assess the system condition from a harmonic point of v
iew and take into account the relative distribution of exciting frequencies
and system resonant modes. Measured system busbar voltage is the only feed
back required by the filter controller and the power system condition is in
itially unkown and variable. A series of time domain simulation results are
presented to illustrate the effectiveness and limitations of the 'active h
armonic damper' while some practical design considerations are highlighted.
