Abstract :
Aircraft technology is moving toward what is known as More Electric Aircraft. This technology aims to increase the amount of electrical power equipments rather than mechanical or hydraulic equipments. This paper present an analytical method of calculating reactive and harmonic current and using this current as a reference to feed a series active filter to compensate the harmonic currents generated by a non linear load.
