ObjectivesThe aim of the study is to increase the energy efficiency of an arc furnace’s power supply system and low-voltage circuit. According to the aim of the research, the relevant tasks of determining the capacitor capacity for reactive power compensation and selecting a rational location for its installation are posed.MethodsWithin the framework of the previously developed concept of changing the parameters of the switching transformer in the series compensation circuit, issues of efficient use and consumption of electrical energy by a high power linear load under sinusoidal mode are considered. The installation of static compensators using a direct compensation method with automatic control including 12 stages of regulation is proposed as a means of increasing the efficiency of the arc furnace. Challenges involved in increasing the efficiency of electric power supply to alternating current arc furnaces using compensating reactive power in a low-voltage circuit are considered.ResultsThe viability of using the series compensation circuit of reactive power with the switching of capacitors in the winding of the higher voltage of the series switching transformer is demonstrated.ConclusionIt is shown that for efficient use and consumption of electric energy by highpower linear load under sinusoidal conditions, it is advisable to apply the series compensation of reactive power with the switching of capacitors in the winding of the higher voltage of the series switching transformer. This makes it possible to increase the efficiency coefficient of electric arc furnace power supply devices by reducing the power losses in the power supply system and in the furnace lowvoltage circuit by 1.6 times, as well as reducing the total load in the power transformer by 1.36 times.

The work is devoted to solving an urgent problem - the development of a computer model of the energy consumption system of the Institute of the ionosphere of the National Academy of Sciences and the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine in order to solve the problem of increasing the energy efficiency of the measuring complex. The power supply system of the complex is described, a generalized structural diagram of the loads - powerful consumers of electricity is presented. The graphs characterizing the energy consumption of individual powerful loads are presented, the problem of compensating the reactive power of loads is shown. The adequacy of the developed model is confirmed by the coincidence of the shape and values of the experimentally obtained characteristics on loads with the characteristics of the model. The model adequacy was assessed by the variance of feedback deviations from the system mean. The results obtained confirmed the possibility of using the developed Matlab-model of the energy consumption system of the measuring complex for creating and testing on the model of an energy-efficient power supply system, which will ensure the stable operation of scientific equipment for the implementation of research programs of the NAS of Ukraine.

The purpose of the work is developing a simulation model of factory’s the power system, with a nonlinear load model, which is a 12-pulses thyristor invertor and a model of a static synchronous compensator, which is multi-level voltage invertor, based on H-bridge invertor. Also defining preliminary parameters for the design of a static synchronous compensator in order to meet the requirements for power factors and limits of voltage harmonic and interharmonic distortion specified for the point of common connection to the mains supply. The analytical and numerical methods of mathematical programming and control of electromechanical systems were used. VisualStudio and PSIM software products for developing a control system for electromechanical systems and compiling a simulation model of an industrial power supply system were used. As a result of the research, a simulation model of the power supply system of an industrial enterprise, a model of a nonlinear load and a static synchronous compensator were developed. The rated power of the static synchronous compensator is determined to reduce the consumption of reactive power and the magnitude of the higher harmonics of the current, at the point of common connection, during operating a non-linear load.

The objective of this work is to research on a SVC auto-compensation method to improve the power factor of the power supply system. Firstly, the principles of the reactive power compensation of FC+TCR are analyzed qualitatively. According to the deficiencies of this compensator, a novel SVC auto-compensating method based on the variable reactor is presented. The reactor controlled by anti-parallel thyristors is namely as the variable reactor in this method. The secondary-side equivalent inductance of the variable reactor is varied by adjusting the SCR firing angles. And then, the equivalent inductance of the variable reactor of the compensator branch is adjusted indirectly for compensating the corresponding reactive power after the working conditions of the load are changed. Therefore, the auto-compensating of this var compensator is realized. The auto-compensating principles of this compensator have been analyzed, and a research on the compensating parameters of this compensator is given emphatically in this paper. Finally, the essential operation steps of this SVC compensation method are given. The research of this paper has laid a theoretical foundation for this compensator in industrial applications.

A chaotic circuit was designed to simulate the chaotic phenomenon observed in power supply system of electric arc furnace (EAF). Based on volt-ampere characteristic of the negative resistance converter (NRC) composed of the integrated operational amplifier (IOA), two NRCs with different parameters are connected in parallel in this circuit. The positive and negative power supply sources of the IOA are unequal in voltage amplitude. Experimental results show that the circuit has characteristics of general Chuas circuits and can generate an asymmetric double-scroll chaotic attractor, which helps establish the foundation for chaotic model of AC arc furnace used to study power quality.
