A Novel Electromagnetic Coupling Reactor Based Passive Power Filter with Dynamic Tunable Function

Along with massive applications of power electronic equipment and non-linear loads, harmonic pollutions are becoming more serious than ever. This paper describes a novel electromagnetic coupling reactor based passive power filter with dynamic tuning to quickly eliminate harmony. Firstly, the structure and mathematic model of electromagnetic coupling reactor are presented; secondly, the employed parameters, including electromagnetic coupling reactance converter, primary winding coil, and secondary winding coil are designed based on a stable structure of data; then, the test plat of passive dynamic tunable filter is introduced, as well as the performance test. According to the experimental results, the newly designed electromagnetic coupling reactor can effectively eliminate the harmonies generated by the nonlinear load, greatly reducing the harm caused by harmonics on the grid. By fine-tuning the electromagnetic coupling reactor, the dissonance caused by the change of capacitance and other issues can be effectively solved. Finally, the detailed discussion of this paper is presented, and challenges and new future research are discussed.
