Abstract :
This paper presents a harmonic-domain method for modeling currents generated by traditional fluorescent lamp with electromagnetic ballast Both the nonlinearity of lamp components and the effect of source voltage distortion on the lamp are taken into account in the proposed model. Simulation results based on the described method are compared with those obtained from experimental tests. It is found that the solutions obtained based on the proposed model agree very well with the experimental test results.
