Abstract :
A simplified harmonic simulation approach suitable for implementation on general-purpose mathematics software for a personal computer is discussed. A set of procedures for simulating the performance of small industrial plants employing static power converters is presented. Harmonic current flow, voltage distortion levels, and harmonic stressing of system components (transformer, capacitor, and filters) are calculated. The advantages and disadvantages of a specific application developed in MathCAD are examined
