Question

How do you remove harmonics from an inverter?

Solution

Harmonics

  1. Rapid increases in current, whether in a positive or negative direction, result in harmonics.
  2. So, the waveform of an inerter voltage source's output is non-sinusoidal.
  3. This sort of waveform exhibits a quick and abrupt rise that is caused by square waves and pulse waves .

Harmonic Elimination by Attenuation method:

  1. A shunt channel for the harmonic current and a series impedance across the harmonic voltage are supplied in order to attenuate harmonics for removal.
  2. In this case, inductive reactance and harmonic passive filters are applied.
  3. A tuned series L-C circuit will be used in passive filters to attenuate particular harmonic frequencies.
  4. For specific frequencies, the filter provides a low impedance path to the ground. Additionally, line reactors or isolation transformers with inductive reactance information can help weaken higher order harmonics and lower the total harmonic content.
  5. Additionally, inductive reactance in the form of isolation transformers or line reactors can aid in attenuating higher order harmonics and lowering the total harmonic content.
