Inherent structure theory of networks and power system harmonics

摘要

The inherent structure theory of networks, already applied in the literature at the fundamental frequency to a variety of planning problems, is extended to the field of power system harmonics. In the context of this theory, the harmonic admittance matrices are reformulated in terms of their eigenvalues and eigenvectors, showing that these expansions can be useful to create a framework in which the power system response to harmonic disturbances can be better understood. After the presentation of the theoretical background, some power system harmonic problems are tackled to show possible applications of this theory. Numerical experiments on a 17-busbar distribution system give evidence of the significance of application to the field of power system harmonics.
