Power Quality Evaluation of An IAT(Intra Airport Transit) System in Incheon International Airport

인천 국제공항청사 경전철 도입에 따른 고조파 영향 분석

This paper presents harmonic evaluation of an IAT(Intra Airport Transit) system in Incheon International Airport. It will be used electric vehicles with 80 kW per car that are produced Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Ltd, and one car is constructed with SIV(Static Inverter), VVVF controller and two induction motor. The operated vehicles in the IAT system are rapidly changing DC load and at a feeding substation, 3-phase electric power is transferred to DC 750 V by rectifier. Since, vehicles are also changing continuously, the voltages for the load fluctuate in the IAT system, and moreover, the fluctuating voltages generate high-order har -monies. This means that there is the difficulty in maintaining power quality in KEPCO systems' side. Therefore, the power quality of the IAT system in Incheon International Airport is evaluated using PSCAD/EMTDC simulator in the paper The THD(Total Harmonic Distortion) of voltages and TDD(Total Demand Distortion) of currents, indices are calculated for the IAT system using the results of PSCAD/EMTDC dynamic simulation.
