Series resonance compensation
2025-09-26Series resonance (also known as variable frequency resonance) compensation - a capacitor connected in series with the line can control the effective reactance between the two ends of the line. The effective reactance is given by the following equationIt is obvious that capacitors will reduce the effective line reactance. This leads to improvements in system performance as follows.(i) The voltage drop in the circuit is reduced (compensated), that is, the terminal voltage change is minimized.(ii) Prevent voltage collapse.(iii) Steady state power transmission increases; It is inversely proportional to X'l.(iv) Due to the increase in transient stability limit.The advantages and problems of series capacitor compensators are related.

In this series resonant circuit (also known as series variable frequency resonant), the current will be maximum and the impedance will be minimum. In a parallel resonant circuit, the situation is exactly the opposite.Resonance formulaThe formula for resonance is:2 * pi * f * L = 1 /(2 * pi * f * C)Among them: 2 * pi=6.2832; F=frequency, measured in Hertz, L=inductance, measured in Henry, C=capacitance, measured in FaradsWe will continue:f = 1 / [2 * pi(sqrt LC)]Among them: 2 * pi=6.2832; F=frequency, measured in Hertz, L=inductance, measured in Henry, C=capacitance, measured in FaradsA particularly simple radio frequency formula (please make sure you understand it) is:LC = 25330.3 / f 2Among them: f=frequency, measured in megahertz (Mhz), L=inductance, measured in microhenries (uH), C=capacitance, measured in picofarads (pF)By using simple algebra, we can d

Series resonance in power systems
2025-09-26When the series combination of the inductance of the facility transformer and the parallel capacitor group in the facility resonates at the harmonic frequency injected from the distribution system, series resonance occurs. In this case, the facility itself may not be an important harmonic current generator, but due to the series LC combination "absorbing" important harmonic currents from the upstream distribution system, the equipment may still encounter resonant harmonic effects. Here is an example of a system that may experience series resonance.The voltage across the capacitor is amplified and distorted, which can be expressed as:Among them, Vh is the harmonic voltage present in the system. R is the inherent series resistance of the circuit above, not shown in the diagram. Note that the resonance values of Xt and Xc are equal and opposite in magnitude, thus canceling each other out.Application of Series and Parallel Resonance in Actual Power SystemsIn fact, due to the circuit topolo

Introduction to series resonant circuit
2025-09-25The following figure shows a typical series resonance (also known as variable frequency resonance) circuit.In many cases, R represents the loss resistance of an inductor, and in the case of a hollow coil, it simply represents the resistance of the winding. The resistance related to capacitors can usually be ignored.The impedance of capacitors and inductors is fictitious and has opposite signs. Typically, for w0 L=1/w0C, the total imaginary part is 0, so the total impedance is R and w is 0 times. This frequency is the series resonant frequency.The general impedance characteristics of this circuit are shown in the following figure.When w0 L=1/w0, each frequency of series resonance: or frequency in Hz: F0This is the so-called Thompson formula.If R is smaller than X, then the reactance near the resonance frequency of L and X C is the series resonance frequency, and we say that the circuit has good selectivity.The selectivity of the quality factor Q is equal to the angular frequency We of e

Q factor and bandwidth of series resonant circuit
2025-09-25The quality factor (Q) of a resonant circuit characterizes its quality. The higher value of this indicator corresponds to a narrower bandwidth (which is ideal for many circuits). Simply put, the quality factor is the ratio of the energy accumulated in the circuit reactance to the energy consumed by the active resistance of the circuit:If the resistor is connected in series with the inductor, this formula applies to both series resonant circuits and parallel resonant circuits. In fact, in practical circuits, we often worry about the resistance of inductors, which can limit the quality factor. Note: Some textbooks on parallel resonant circuits in the "Q" formula interchange X and R. This is correct for large R values connected in parallel with C and L, and our formula is correct for small R values connected in series with L.The practical application of Q factor (Q) is that the voltage across L or C in a series resonant circuit is Q times the total applied voltage, and in a parallel reson

Forced oscillation in series resonant circuit
2025-09-25From the process of electrical engineering, it can be known that in a series resonant circuit containing inductance L, capacitance C, and active resistance R, voltage resonance occurs when the reactance is equal (X L=X C). When the frequency is e, resonance in the series circuit can be obtained. D is consistent with the frequency of free oscillation in the circuit.Normally, the current in a circuit is determined by rotationResonance (XL=XC)Therefore, in resonance, when ƒ=ƒ 0, a series circuit has a minimum resistance equal to the circuit and an active resistance of e.The quality factor of a series resonant circuit indicates how many times the voltage on its components increases during resonance compared to the e applied to the circuit. The frequency dependence of current in a series circuit is called the resonance curve of the circuit.The analytical expression for the road resonance curve isI am the current in the circuit; ƒ is the frequency of the applied e. ƒ 0=Δ ƒ - The detuning of

Resonance frequency of series resonance
2025-09-24Voltage resonance phenomenon is observed in a series resonant circuit composed of capacitors, inductors, and resistors. In order to ensure the energy supply of the resonant circuit, the series circuit also includes an electromotive force source E, which generates an alternating voltage with a frequency of W. During resonance, the circulating current in the series circuit must be in phase with the electromotive force. If only the total resistance of circuit Z=R+J (WL-1/W C) is activated, it ensures effective Z=R. Equality:(L-1 /WС)= 0(1)It is the mathematical condition for resonance in a resonant circuit. In this case, the current in the circuit will be I=E/R. If we transform equation (1), we obtain:WL = 1 /WС。In this expression, W is the resonant frequency of the circuit.Importantly, during the resonance process, the voltage across the inductor is equal to the voltage across the capacitor, and is:UL = U = WL * I = WLE / R The total amount of energy in inductance and capacitance (magnet

Regarding the phenomenon of series resonance and equivalent circuit power lines
2025-09-23The resonance phenomenon of voltage and current in electrical engineering is well known. In a series circuit with inductance and capacitance, series resonance and electrical parallel resonance occur in parallel at certain resonant frequencies. In a series circuit, this phenomenon corresponds to the condition that the inductance and capacitance resistance are equal. The circuit becomes purely active.As the frequency increases, the inductance and resistance increase, while the capacitance and resistance decrease. At the resonant frequency, their values are equal and cancel each other out, and enter the variable frequency series resonant mode. A similar phenomenon occurs when the current in the power cord changes. Under certain loads (currents), series resonance modes may occur on them. This situation occurs when the capacitive power generated is equal to the inductive power consumed. The power corresponding to this condition is called 'natural'.Calculations show that at the reson

Series resonance and parallel resonance
2025-09-23In AC circuits containing capacitors, inductors, and resistors with series resonance, forced electrical resonance of current and voltage occurs. At a certain frequency of alternating current, inductance and capacitance resistance may be equal (Xt=Xc). This means that the current intensity and applied voltage vary in the same phase, as if there were only Ohmic resistors in a circuit, and the voltage amplitudes on inductors and capacitors are the same but opposite in phase. This phenomenon is called series resonance or variable frequency resonance. The resonant frequency is determined by the formulaThe series resonance phenomenon is used in radio engineering to tune circuits to the desired frequency.When the frequency approaches the resonant frequency C0res [t] when a voltage is applied, there is a sharp decrease in the amplitude of the current intensity in an AC circuit powered by parallel connected capacitors and inductors (ignoring the active resistance due to its small size).

Resistive properties of series resonance
2025-09-23The series RLC circuit consists of a resistor R, an inductor L, and a capacitor C connected in series. As in an ideal series LC circuit without resistance, oscillation with resonant frequency may occur in an RLC circuit, but due to the presence of resistance, this resonant frequency will attenuate.Series resonance (also known as variable frequency resonance) occurs at the frequency with the minimum impedance of the circuit, where the reactance of the circuit is zero. In other words, if the impedance is only resistive without reactance, i.e. its imaginary part is zero, this situation will occur. When the reactance of an inductor and a capacitor is equal, resonance occurs, and due to their opposite signs, they cancel each other out. The following vector diagram shows this situation.The calculator also calculates the Q factor of the serial RLC circuit - a parameter used for series resonant circuits and devices, as well as mechanical resonators.
