Question

Use of passive filter in industrial area

Answer 1

In this paper, harmonic analysis and passive filter design for an industrial installation is presented. A system is designed under MATLAB / Simulink platform that consist of universal bridge with pulse generator to supply a DC load. Harmonic distortion levels of system currents and voltages are obtained by using FFT analysis and also waveform graphs are given to show distortion. Then passive harmonic filters are designed step by step to eliminate harmonics on system. As the designed filters are applied on system, results show that harmonic distortion decreased. FFT analysis is performed for filtered design to obtain effect of designed filters on system. Also current

Answer 2

Answer:

A passive filter component is a combination of capacitors and inductors that are tuned to resonate at a single frequency, or through a band of frequencies. In power systems, passive filters are used to suppress harmonic currents and decrease voltage distortion appearing in sensitive parts of the system.
