yacht electrical power systems. The passive harmonic filters that adapt 汪 single unit trap tuned at a specific harmonic frequency to serve as one of harmonic mitigation solutions because they offer mature technology, reliable operation, and lower installation and maintenance cost A traditional passive harmonic filter design for VFD on board is generally acceptable, but when the reactive power changes due to passive filter in service, the system is exposed to rich reactive currents and could experience leading power fector or even the system overvoltage. To obtain better harmonic mitigation results, an effective methodology for designing single-tuned passive harmonic filters in yachts is proposed in this paper. The filter components are designed to meet minimum requirements in terms of harmonic current distortions and reactive powers while, at the same time, increasing on-board power generator efficiency and consequently reducing fuel oil required. A practical yacht power system with a great number of VFD is analyzed to illustrate the filter design. The numerical simulation and field testing results confirm the performance of the proposed method.
