Abstract :
Magnetic-valve controllable reactor (MCR) has been widely applied in many kinds of industries, such as power systems and ferrous metallurgy. As electrical equipment, MCR can adjust its reactance smoothly and continuously, which has advantages like low dissipation and maintenance costs, high reliability. In this paper, a precise 2-D field-circuit coupling model of MCR is established by the finite element analysis software-ANSYS, and then the analysis of the harmonic characteristics of this model is presented in detail. Compared with the conventional numeric method, the proposed method could obtain more practical and accurate results and also has the ability to analyze electromagnetic field. Meanwhile, an experimental platform of a 2200 VA/380 V MCR is built. This paper provides detailed harmonic characteristics analysis of simulation and experiment. The simulation and experimental results verify that the proposed method is more accurate than using conventional ways.
