Design of continuously adjustable reactors using SABER simulation software

This paper presents a hybrid method for the design of continuously adjustable reactors using SABER simulation package based on the conventional design results. This approach enables the designer to do modeling and parameter modification in an accurate and flexible manner. It also allows the designer to consider the impact of nonlinear effects and evaluate system performance in the course of reactor design. The designed reactor improves the performance and reliability of distribution networks, and overcomes the slow-response drawback of existing on-line adjustable arc suppression coils. Simulation results are given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed design method.
