Field simultaneous measurements, modeling, and simulation of harmonic components in a small generation-transmission network. http://dx.doi.org/10.1002/etep.117

Abstract

This paper presents a detailed deterministic model for a small electrical transmission network (110 kV), representing a large (150 MVA) industrial Copper mine production plant. This model is developed and validated with simultaneous field measurements. The network topology allows two operating modes, ring and open ring operation, without disturbing the busbar loads. Experimental results of—simultaneous—measurements at the three load busbars confirm the simulation results obtained with a state space deterministic model. A sensitivity assessment of busbar harmonic distortions, based on singular and eigenvalues analysis, is also presented.
