Abstract
With the expansion of the grid, continuous reactive power compensation is vital for efficient operation of long transmission power lines or cables. Yunnan Electric Power Grid is planning to development saturable reactors for 500 kV long distance AC transmission lines. As the first stage of the development plan, the appropriate saturable reactor structure should be presented and verified by experiment. In this paper, different ferromagnetic materials, core structures and winding arrangements of saturable reactors are analyzed. Then, appropriate saturable reactor structure is determined by simulating calculation. Based on that, a small-scale prototype is designed and fabricated. The experimental results show that it can obtain a continuous controllable reactive power output.
