Abstract
In order to assess the flicker caused by electric arc furnace, the simulation method to assess flicker and its application in electric arc furnace power system is studied. Firstly, based on the Flicker Meter functional and design specifications recommended by IEC, an IEC Flicker Meter is designed concretely; Secondly, an IEC Flicker Meter model is established in SIMULINK, and a special M file which can be used to calculate the short term flicker sensation indicator (P st ) is compiled, according to the IEC criterion, the Flicker Meter model is tested; Finally, assess of the flicker caused by an actual electric arc furnace is achieved, the instantaneous flicker sensation S(t) in the point of common coupling is gained. The results show that application of simulation method to assess the flicker caused by electric arc furnace is an effective way.
