Tutorial on Harmonics Modeling Simulation

• Organized by
• Task Force on Harmonics Modeling Simulation
• Adapted and Presented by Paulo F Ribeiro
• AMSC
• May 28-29, 2008

Scope
The purpose of this tutorial is to provide an
review of subjects that have significant impacts
on the areas of harmonic analysis, modeling, and
simulation. The major contents of the tutorial
include an overview of harmonics modeling and
simulation, harmonics and interharmonics
theories, modeling of linear and nonlinear loads
as well as network components, the time- and
frequency-domain harmonic analyses, real-time
modeling and simulation, benchmark test systems,
procedure of time-domain harmonics modeling and
simulation, and case studies.

Scope
In addition to including the new subjects of
interharmonics theory and real-time simulations
and applications, it is worth mentioning that the
two chapters of step-by-step analysis procedure
performed by the commonly used harmonic
simulation tool and real-life study examples are
offered to facilitate participants to learn the
area. The tutorial offers a handy material that
is convenient for the beginners as well as those
who already know the subject and is expected to
provide the readers with a general background
knowledge and further understanding on the
subject.
