Abstract
Object and purpose of research. The control of the operating modes of the propulsion electric motor (PEM) is carried out by semiconductor frequency converters, the use of which significantly worsens the quality of electricity on the common buses of the Marine Power Systems. The main reasons are a decrease in the power factor and the appearance of higher harmonics in the consumed current. As a result of this, the reliability of consumers' operation decreases, and power losses increase. Therefore, reducing these negative consequences is an urgent task. Materials and methods. Methods of theoretical electrical engineering, power theory were used. Main results. The method of operation of the reactive power control device for ensuring the quality of electricity, increasing the power factor and filtering higher harmonics in Marine Power Systems was considered and proposed. Conclusion. To ensure the quality of electrical energy of the reactive power compensator, it is necessary to use modern pulse-modulation control algorithms with direct microprocessor control.
