Paladin® DesignBase™ includes a highly integrated harmonics analysis and filter design solution specifically designed for power quality and harmonic mitigation engineers. Harmonic analysis is required when devices that generate harmonics, such as rectifiers, arc furnaces, AC/DC drives etc, are present or anticipated to be added to the power system.Digital computer simulation is the most convenient, and perhaps more economical, way of tackling the problem of harmonic analysis. The Paladin® DesignBase™digital simulations are centered on system-wide approaches utilizing the notions of system impedance and/or admittance matrices, backed by elegant and powerful numerical calculation techniques.
