| Summary: | Harmonic impedance estimation and suitable evaluation index selection are the key steps of harmonic contribution evaluation. Most of the traditional harmonic impedance estimation methods are only applicable to the scenario, where the background harmonic is stable and the utility impedance is constant. However, this scenario will change in many cases due to the fluctuation of harmonic, the change of system operation mode and so on. In order to improve the estimation accuracy for harmonic impedance, a harmonic impedance estimation method is proposed in this paper based on similarity measure and ordering points to identify the clustering structure (OPTICS). The total harmonic contribution index and harmonic comprehensive contribution index are proposed based on subjective analytic hierarchy process to simplify the evaluation results. Simulation analysis and their comparison with the traditional methods reveal that the proposed harmonic impedance estimation method can reduce the influence of background harmonic voltage fluctuation and utility impedance change, making the harmonic impedance estimation result more accurate. Besides, the proposed total harmonic contribution index and harmonic comprehensive contribution index can effectively simplify contribution evaluation results, which provide a new methodology for the evaluation of harmonic contribution.
