Abstract

Considering harmonics as a time-dependent stochastic process, this paper proposes prediction tools to identify both the stochastic and the time varying behaviour of harmonics. The randomly operating conditions of several nonlinear loads justify the use of a stochastic approach based on a continuous-time model. This approach is applied to characterise the amplitude of the harmonic currents on the secondary of a distribution transformer feeding an institutional building
