В современных динамических энергетических средах-от промышленных предприятий до центров обработки данных-качество силы не подлежит обсуждению. Нелинейные нагрузки, такие как переменные частотные приводы и компьютеры, внедряют гармонические искажения, impacting efficiency and compliance. Активные гармонические фильтры (AHFS) or Active Power Filters (APFS) are advanced solutions engineered to eliminate these distortions by injecting real-time compensating currents—ensuring a clean, sinusoidal waveform. В этом блоге, we’ll explore the most common types of APFs, their applications, and how CoEpower’s innovative designs can meet your needs.
1. Shunt Active Filters (Shunt APF)
How they work: Connected in parallel with the load, shunt APFs measure harmonic currents and inject counter-currents to cancel them out.
Лучше всего для: Eliminating current harmonics, compensating reactive power, and balancing unbalanced loads.
Why choose it: Ideal for improving true power factor and reducing THD (Total Harmonic Distortion). Например, installations have reduced THD from 7% to under 3%.
2. Series Active Filters (Series APF)
How they work: These are placed in series with the supply and inject a compensating voltage to mitigate voltage harmonics.
Лучше всего для: Suppressing voltage distortion, regulating terminal voltage, and isolating sensitive loads from supply anomalies.
3. Hybrid Active Filters
What they combine: Hybrid APFs merge shunt, series, and often passive filter components into a single system.
Advantages: This hybrid design tackles both current and voltage harmonics effectively—leveraging active elements for dynamic, high-order mitigation and passive components for fixed, low-order frequencies.
4. Current-Source vs Voltage-Source Active Filters
Current‐source active filter: Injects compensating current—functionally similar to a shunt APF.
Voltage‐source active filter: Delivers compensating voltage in series—akin to a series APF.
5. Adaptive Active Filters
These systems deploy smart algorithms that dynamically adapt to changing harmonic profiles—providing more accurate and efficient filtering in real-time conditions.
6. Control & Compensation Strategies
Technology backbone: APFs typically rely on power electronics such as IGBTs or MOSFETs, paired with DSP or FPGA platforms, enabling rapid switching and precise harmonic cancellation.
Control methods:
Synchronous Reference Frame (SRF) or dq0 transforms simplify harmonic components into DC quantities, aiding in more straightforward filtering.
Instantaneous Reactive Power Theory (pq/IRPT) generates reference compensation currents based on real‐time calculations.
7. Why APFs Outperform Passive Filters
| Особенность | Активные гармонические фильтры (APFS) | Passive Filters |
|---|---|---|
| Adaptability | Dynamic and responsive to variable loads | Tuned to fixed frequencies—less flexible |
| Harmonic Range | Mitigates multiple orders including high-order harmonics | Typically handles predetermined low-order harmonics only |
| Resonance Risks | Minimal resonance issues | Prone to resonance with system impedance |
| Size & Масштабируемость | Компакт, modular, scalable (НАПРИМЕР., rack-mount, wall, cabinets) | Larger footprint, less modular |
8. CoEpower APF Highlights
