Why choose this project topic?
The project focuses on comparing compensation strategies for a fictional mixed-load circuit, making the engineering decision visible through measurable behaviour. Comparing power factor, reactive demand and harmonic distortion provides material for waveforms, calculations and a reasoned discussion of the trade-offs behind the selected design.
How do the selected circuit, control or measurement choices affect power factor, reactive demand and harmonic distortion when comparing compensation strategies for a fictional mixed-load circuit?
Agree the available approved equipment or simulation platform, operating range and comparison method for comparing compensation strategies for a fictional mixed-load circuit with your supervisor.
Proposed project objectives
- 01Specify the operating limits, assumptions and reference conditions for comparing compensation strategies for a fictional mixed-load circuit.
- 02Model linear and nonlinear loads, compare passive and controlled compensation and report both fundamental and harmonic effects.
- 03Evaluate power factor, reactive demand and harmonic distortion and explain model or measurement uncertainty.
A suggested research approach
Model linear and nonlinear loads, compare passive and controlled compensation and report both fundamental and harmonic effects. Obtain supervisor approval for equipment and operating limits, and use simulation whenever the physical setup is unavailable or unsafe. Record units, instrument settings and repeated observations before comparing power factor, reactive demand and harmonic distortion with a defined reference.
What you will need
- Circuit simulation software
- Documented load models
- Reference waveforms
Keep your project scope clear
Simulation does not justify connecting experimental compensators to the mains supply.
