Abstract
Power quality simulation plays an important role in many practical cases, for example, when deciding the capacity of the related mitigation devices, assessing the influence of installing a nonlinear load in the distribution part, dissolving the quality issues between utilities and customers, and so on. For these purposes, many dedicated tools have been used in order to assess the level of quality distortions by various kinds of PQ indices. However, there are few modules that can accurately simulate the flicker phenomenon, that is, $\small{P_{st}}$ and the nonlinear and chaotic behavior of the electrical arc furnace, which is one of the representative nonlinear loads. This paper deals with the useful and simple modules for the voltage flicker simulation in the distribution and transmission level under the environment of Matlab/Simulink. With these modules, the various conditions of distribution systems and the capacities of arc furnaces with the chaotic characteristic can be easily taken into account.
