This paper investigated the cause of the harmonic current amplification in nonlinear load in a 6kV substations power supply system. The paper proposed that reactors could be series connected in the capacitors by-pass to restrain the amplification. The result from field practice showed that this method could overcome the harmonic current amplification efficiently.

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.

Alumina production is rather complex technological process of processing mineral raw materials that requires development of effective technological solutions, including in terms of efficiency of using electric energy. The paper is devoted to studying the power supply system of an alumina refinery inLam Dong Province,Vietnam. The tasks that need to be solved for improving the power quality in the power supply system were analyzed. It was shown that non-linear loads significantly degrade the power quality that in turn leads to equipment damage, malfunction and decreasing the refinery productivity. Models of the refinery power supply system were developed and, using which, the quality of power was assessed at the 6 kV voltage utility bus of the power supply system, as well as at the 6 kV and 0.4 kV buses of distribution substations of individual refinery’s subdivisions. Analysis of the simulation findings showed that the nonlinear loads lead to significant distortions of sinusoidal forms of voltages and currents, and decreasing the power factor. Based on the simulation results, it was concluded that voltage harmonics and current harmonics at nonlinear load at the low voltage buses of 0.4 kV and at the buses of 6 kV exceed the permissible limits of the harmonics in accordance with IEEEST519-1992 international standard. Proposals were developed for improving the power quality in the refinery power supply system. For suppressing higher harmonics of current and voltage, it was recommended to use special power quality regulators in the alumina refinery power supply system. It was proposed to use active harmonic filters as the power quality regulators. The proposed solutions allowed obtaining practically sinusoidal forms of voltages and currents in the alumina refinery power supply system.
