摘要
This letter presents a theory for the creation of harmonics by resonance in converter-grid systems. A harmonic of this type is usually not present or observable under normal operation, but may suddenly appear, with a growing magnitude and at a frequency that coincides with a system resonance frequency. The growth may be unbounded, leading eventually to a shutdown of the converter or other components in the system due to protection or physical damage, but often it stops after certain time and the harmonic sustains itself at a constant magnitude. The latter is the focus of this work and is identified as a result of system operation changing from an initially unstable mode to a critically stable mode achieved via a self-adjusting process. Small-signal sequence impedance models are used to explain this self-adjusting process and to determine the resulting harmonic responses. Experimental measurements are presented to validate the theory and to demonstrate the characteristics of this new type of harmonics.
