ACTIVE HARMONIC COMPENSATOR FOR VARIABLE SPEED CHILLERS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240022070 titled 'ACTIVE HARMONIC COMPENSATOR FOR VARIABLE SPEED CHILLERS
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes an active harmonic filter (AHF) compensation assembly. The assembly includes two wirings - one carrying input current and the other carrying output current. The second wiring is electrically coupled to the first wiring for receiving the input current and two AHFs.
The first AHF determines the first harmonic component of the output current and outputs a first signal to cancel this component at a specific location along the first wiring. The second AHF determines the second harmonic component of the output current and outputs a second signal to cancel this component at a location upstream from the first location.
- The patent describes an active harmonic filter compensation assembly.
- The assembly includes two wirings - one for input current and the other for output current.
- The second wiring is connected to the first wiring and receives the input current and two active harmonic filters (AHFs).
- The first AHF cancels the first harmonic component of the output current at a specific location on the first wiring.
- The second AHF cancels the second harmonic component of the output current at a location upstream from the first location.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Power distribution systems
- Industrial machinery
- Renewable energy systems
Problems solved by this technology:
- Reduction of harmonic distortion in power systems
- Minimization of voltage and current harmonics
- Improvement of power quality
Benefits of this technology:
- Enhanced efficiency of power systems
- Reduction of equipment damage caused by harmonics
- Compliance with power quality standards
Original Abstract Submitted
an active harmonic filter (ahf) compensation assembly is provided. the ahf compensation assembly includes first wiring carrying input current, second wiring carrying output current and being electrically coupled to the first wiring for reception of the input current and first and second ahfs. the first ahf determines a first harmonic component of the output current and outputs a first signal configured to cancel the first harmonic component to the first wiring at a first location defined along the first wiring. the second ahf determines a second harmonic component of the output current and outputs a second signal configured to cancel the second harmonic component to the first wiring at a second location defined along the first wiring upstream from the first location.
