Abstract

SUMMARY This paper presents an optimal planning of passive harmonic filter using the hybrid differential evolution method considering variation of system impedance, harmonic current sources and filter tuning points. The proposed method minimizes an objective composed of the total harmonic distortion of current and voltage, selects different filters topologies, and determines their optimal parameters and tuned points under a constant cost. The harmonic currents and voltages in a power system are expressed as probabilistic models which are obtained using the statistical simulation method. Monte-Carlo simulation is employed to verify the accuracy of the obtained probabilistic models. The method proposed is applied to solve the harmonic problems in a practical chemical plant, and the results show that the proposed method is effective for passive filter planning in industrial distribution systems.
