Abstract :
The paper deals with the representation of the flickermeter operation in the Simulink software program. This can be useful in case of simulation studies related to power plants where flicker phenomenon can rise up due to the presence of heavy disturbing loads (i.e. arc furnaces). The standard block diagram of the flickermeter is analyzed and reproduced in software blocks dedicated to the modeling of its different components. A validation procedure on a real case is adopted for testing the proposed model.
