ABSTRACT In this paper, we apply the PQ theory with shunt active power filter in an unbalanced and distorted power system voltage to compensate the perturbations generated by non linear load. The power factor is also improved in the current source. The PLL system is used to extract the fundamental component of the even sequence under conditions mentioned of the power system voltage.

This paper presents a new method to find the optimum switching angles in voltage source multilevel converters in order to minimize specific higher order harmonics and decrease the total harmonic distortion (THD) of their output voltage waveform. The output voltage waveform of inverter can either be in the form of staircase or PWM. In order to increase the degrees of freedom and elimination of m...

By quick technological advancements in industrial control processes, major industries demand higher power quality. According to IEEE 1159-1995 standard, any problems in voltage, current or freq‌ue‌ncy that lead to the error or malfunctions in electrical equipment are considered as a power quality problem. Among the power quality phenomena, voltage sag has been an important problem for power sys...

This paper describes the application of a new fuzzy based control strategy to a three-phase shunt active power filter for harmonics minimization and reactive power compensation required by a variable non-linear load. To improve dynamic behaviour of shunt active power filter and make it robust under wide range of load variations, the value of load current is considered as an input of fuzzy contr...

The renewable energy resources rule the world of power generation. Now-a-days wind farms are encouraged for up gradation of energy production, as the wind power is dirt free, readily available renewable alternative. The integration of wind farms with power grid leads to Power Quality (PQ) issues such as voltage sag, swell, flicker, harmonics etc. Most of the industrial and commercial loads are ...

In this paper introduces a PV based generation system interlinked with shunt active power filter (SAPF) to provide the effective reactive compensation and mitigation of harmonics. The SAPF is comprised photovoltaic system, DC link capacitor voltage source inverter (VSI). current harmonics caused by nonlinear loads can be greatly reduced help filter. To generate reference regulation SAPF, artifi...

Non-linear loads are commonly present in industrial facilities, service facilities, office build‐ ings, and even in our homes. They are the source of several Power Quality problems such as harmonics, reactive power, flicker and resonance [1-3]. Therefore, it can be observed an in‐ creasing deterioration of the electrical power grid voltage and current waveforms, mainly due to the contamination ...

Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) have demonstrated very interesting properties in adaptive identification schemes and control laws. In this work, they are employed for the on-line control strategy of an Active Power Filter (APF) in order to improve its performance. Indeed, neural-based approaches are synthesized to design adaptive and efficient harmonic identification schemes. The proposed neu...
