Load Flow Analysis/Harmonic Analysis

06/13/2011 12:17 PM

I have trying to do load flow as well as Harmonic Analysis for car battery chargers in the distribution system. I have using power system simulator (ETAP).

I am having trouble modeling the typical distribution system.

How many buses do i need for the analysis?

What are the typical loads that needs to be on the system that will help simulate the real world power system?

Is there any standard number of buses and loads to be on the simulation for better analysis

its an independent study project

OK,

The purpose of a model is to arrive at some conclusions, after giving it specific inputs.

What you put in is up to you. What you get out is a product of what you put in. If it doesn't look right, do it again. If you have conclusions to verify, post them here. Independent research, right?

Have you asked the ETAP people for a tutorial?

Thanks for the suggestion.

I just need some technical advice for the numbers of loads that is needed on the secondary bus with the battery charger so that my model corresponds to a real world scenario.

It sounds like some of that is what you might determine with your independent study project--how will you know when you've achieved realistic results?

or may if you could answer this to me.

What would be a fair assumption for this case.

how much Motor horse power is equivalent to the total loads in a house of a middle class family?

Check ETAP library

I agree with your problem Stiwari. We are providing information about in Harmonic distortions is one of the most common and irritating problems in industrial environment. We need to identify the source of harmonics and suppress them for a quality supply of power. To know more, Click here..
