    Data Harmonic
AI Thread Summary
Graduate students analyzing harmonic data from a university hospital can focus on two primary methods to reduce harmonics: removing the sources of harmonic distortion or implementing filtering solutions. Filters can be categorized into shunt types, which divert harmonics to ground, and series types, which impede harmonic flow. A comprehensive analysis requires more detailed information than can be provided in a brief discussion. Further research is essential for effective solutions, and additional resources are available for in-depth study. Understanding these methods will aid in drawing conclusions from the collected data.

good afternoon

I am a graduate student in Jordan and i am working on my graduation project about harmonic studies in our university hospital and I've got data from power analyzer
-all harmonics voltages and currents until 25th harmonic (sampling every 1 min).
-all rms data currents ,voltages ,power, reactive power and power factor.

i want your help to guide me of what analysis i can do to decrease the harmonics in our hospital and what conclusion i can take from this data thank you and please reply ASAP

Regards

Your question is very broad. It is like asking a doctor, "How can I improve the health of patients?"

There are really only two ways to reduce harmonics: Remove the sources of harmonic distortion, or filter the harrmonics. Filters can be either shunt types that divert the harmonics to ground, or series types that impede the flow of harmonics.

But you need much more information than can be given in an Internet post. You need in-depth study. Here is one place to start.

Hey guys. I have a question related to electricity and alternating current. Say an alien fictional society developed electricity, and settled on a standard like 73V AC current at 46 Hz. How would appliances be designed, and what impact would the lower frequency and voltage have on transformers, wiring, TVs, computers, LEDs, motors, and heating, assuming the laws of physics and technology are the same as on Earth?
While I was rolling out a shielded cable, a though came to my mind - what happens to the current flow in the cable if there came a short between the wire and the shield in both ends of the cable? For simplicity, lets assume a 1-wire copper wire wrapped in an aluminum shield. The wire and the shield has the same cross section area. There are insulating material between them, and in both ends there is a short between them. My first thought, the total resistance of the cable would be reduced...
I used to be an HVAC technician. One time I had a service call in which there was no power to the thermostat. The thermostat did not have power because the fuse in the air handler was blown. The fuse in the air handler was blown because there was a low voltage short. The rubber coating on one of the thermostat wires was chewed off by a rodent. The exposed metal in the thermostat wire was touching the metal cabinet of the air handler. This was a low voltage short. This low voltage...
