The invention discloses a
harmonic traceability method based on a
harmonic power direction of an
electric power system, which belongs to the technical field of
electric power quality of the
electric power system and comprises the following steps of: constructing matrixes of fundamental
waves and
harmonic signals, initializing active and reactive power deviation values of nodes, and adopting a decoupling
algorithm combined with a Jacobian
matrix iteration method to carry out harmonic
traceability. And sequentially calculating the fundamental wave
voltage and each harmonic current, and finally obtaining the
power flow direction and judging the harmonic source attribute. When harmonic power flows from a load to a
power grid, the node is identified as a harmonic source; and when the harmonic power flows to the load from the
power grid, identifying the node as a harmonic receiving point. An
equivalent circuit model is used for separating harmonic influences of a linear load and a non-linear load, and a real-time monitoring technology is combined to realize dynamic tracking and accurate positioning of a harmonic source. The method is low in calculation complexity, excellent in convergence performance and suitable for a modern power distribution network scene where distributed energy and power
electronic equipment are widely connected, the harmonic suppression efficiency is remarkably improved, and the safety and stability of
power grid operation are ensured.
