摘要:
In a static reactive power compensator (SVC) for a.c. railway network, where a thyristor controlled reactor (TCR) (5) variably compensates the excess of constant capacitive reactive power generated by the compensator, by absorbing reactive power, the current harmonics generated by the TCR are limited by an RC low pass filter (6) and further by a saturable reactor (16) series connected to the TCR and the d.c current component flowing in the TCR, as measured by a sensor, is zeroed by imposing a dissymmetry in the firing angle of the thyristors related to the measured d.c. component.
