Problems SVC-- Static Var Compensator solved:

1. For electric arc furnace

Electric Arc Furnace as a nonlinear and erratic load in the power grid will bring a
series of adverse effects to the power grid, such as:
1. Lead serious three-phase unbalance of the power grid, create negative
sequence current.
2. Produce high order harmonics, such as coexist of 2ed, 4th even harmonics
and 3rd, 5th, 7th odd harmonic, then make severe voltage distortion become
more complicated.
3. Serious voltage flicker.
4. Low power factor.
The beat method to completely resolve the problems mentioned above is to install
fast-acting reactive power compensation device (SVC). The response time of SVC
system of RXPE is less than l0ms, which met the strict technical requirements. The
SVC can supply reactive current to electric arc furnace and stabilizes the voltage level
in the power grid. Then the output of the metallurgical active power can be increased,
and the impact of flicker can be minimized. The separated phase compensation
function of SVC can eliminate the three-phase unbalance caused by electric arc
furnace. The filtering devices of the SVC, can remove the harmful high order
harmonics so as to improve power quality, then the power factor can be increased
through providing capacitive reactive power to the system.
2. For rolling mill
During working, the reactive power impulsion caused by rolling mill and other
industrial symmetry loads will lead to the following problems to the power grid:
1. Degrade the voltage level and create voltage fluctuation, even make the electrical
equipment inoperative, and reduce the production efficiency.
2. Lessen the power factor
3. Harmful high order harmonics in transmission device of load, mainly including
odd harmonics, such as 5th, 7th, 11th, 13th and side frequency, which will create
serious distortion of voltage level.
RXPE’s SVC can remove the above problems to maintain a stable bus voltage, avoid
the harmonic , and make the power factor close to 1.
3. For Power supply of electric locomotive
Electric locomotive transportation also generates the averse effect to the power
grid. Because the electric locomotive is single phase power supplied, such
single-phase load causes a serious three-phase unbalance in the power grid and a
low power factor, then negative sequence current is formed.
 Presently, the only method to resolve this problem is to install SVC at appropriate
locations along the railway. The three-phase balance of the power grid is got
through the quick isolated phase compensation function of SVC, and the improved
power factor is achieved through filters. RXPE can supply the SVC to solve the
problems perfectly.
4. For hoist
Hoist and other heavy loads will have the following effects on power grids when they
are at the working state:
1. Reduce the voltage level and generate voltage fluctuation in the power grid.
2. Low power factor
3. Harmful high order harmonics in transmission device
All of these problems can be removed by use of RXPE’s SVC.
5. For Long-distance power transmission
In the global electric power industry, we are trending to conduct long-distance
electricity transmission. The high energy consumption requires the transmission and
more effective distribution system. SVC can significantly improve the transmission
and distribution performance of power system, which has been widely proved in the
world. In order to maintain a balanced voltage as the power system in different
conditions, the installation of SVC at one or more suitable locations of the power grid
is necessary. The following purposes are achieved:
1. Stabilization of the voltage of weak system
2. Reduction of the transmission losses
3. Increment of transmission capacity makes the existing power grid play its
maximum efficiency
4. Increment of transient stability limit
5. Increment of damping under small interference
6.Enhancement of voltage control and stability
7. Elimination of power fluctuation
6. For Secondary substation in city (66/110 kV)
In regional power grid, we generally use the TSC to compensate the reactive power
and improve power factor. However, this method can only provide capacitive reactive
power to the system, but not achieve rapidly and precisely regulation with the changes
of load which is easy to cause inverted injection of reactive power to the system, the
fluctuation of the bus voltage, the damage of the electrical equipment and instability
of the system.
RXPE’s SVC system can quickly and accurately make capacitive and inductive
reactive power compensation. When SVC stabilizes the bus voltage and improves
the power factor, the inverted injection of reactive power is solved thoroughly. In
addition, the SVC may take full advantage of original existing fixed capacitors
bank, achieving the best efficiency with the least investment. It becomes the most
effective way to improve the quality of power supply of regional power grid.

Working principles of SVC-- Static Var Compensator:

Principle of TCR Type SVC
While the SVC is installed into the system, the capacitor provides fixed capacitive
reactive power Qc, the current passing through the compensation reactor determines
the amount of the inductive reactive power QTCR outputted by the compensation
reactor. The inductive reactive power offset the capacitive reactive power. As long as
the reactive power of the system Qn=Qv (required by the system)-Qc+
QTCR=constant (or 0), it can be realized that power factor of electrical network is a
constant. The voltage will not change, what is of importance is the required current
passing through the compensation reactor on the triggering angle which is used to
control the thyristor. The converter and control system of the thyristor can achieve
this function, collecting current value and voltage value of reactive power of the bus
to compose the value of reactive power. Compared with the set constant value of
reactive power (may be 0), the magnitude of triggering angle is calculated, and the
required current pass through the thyristor is got.
As for asymmetric loads, by the theory of Steinmets, the system achieves separated
phase regulation, which can eliminate negative sequence current, and balance
three-phase of the power grid.

Configuration of SVC-- Static Var Compensator:

1. Full digital control system:
Cabinet structure; used to calculate reactive power of the electrical network at
real-time, control magnitude of triggering angle of thyristor so as to control the
amount of compensation of reactive power.
2. Thyristor converter:
1.Frame structure.
2. Receive signal from the control system, change size of the triggering angle of
thyristor, generate corresponding reactive power compensation current.
3. Compensation reactor:
1.Tubular dry type, double coils at top and bottom, natural cooling.
2. When the current passing through the thyristor flows through the compensation
reactor, it generates the inductive reactive power required by the system, which is
 used to balance the reactive power of the system and maintain stability of bus voltage
and power factor.
4. High order harmonics filtering device:
1. Components: reactor, power capacitor, resistor (used when there is a high-pass
channel), these three components shape a filtering channel. Multiple filtering
channels can be formed according to system requirements, which are used to filter
out corresponding high order harmonics, respectively.
2. Structure: The reactor is tubular dry type, with double coils at top and bottom,
natural cooling, the power capacitor is installed in a frame structure, with natural
cooling property.
3. Purpose: Remove the high order harmonics running through the system; supply capacitive
reactive power to the system and increase the power factor.
4. Connection: Each filtering channel is connected to the bus of the system through switch
cabinet (can also be connected directly).
