This paper deals with an indirect current controlled shunt active power filter (SAPF) for improving power quality by reactive power compensation and harmonic filtering. The presence of harmonics and reactive power in the power source because it will cause additional power losses and malfunctions. The proposed APF is based on a voltage source inverter (VSI). The VSI is controlled by two loops, t...

Active power filter are been widely used for harmonic elimination. Harmonics are generated by nonlinear load in ac distribution system. The active power filters are broadly classified as shunt active power filter, series active power filter and hybrid filters. With regard to circuit topology, there are two basic kinds of active filter, voltage source and current source. The series active power ...

In this paper, an adaptive control strategy is proposed for the inverters of renewable energy source (RES) to simultaneously control the load voltage, grid current and the amount of instantaneous injected power to the grid in the presence of grid voltage distortions and nonlinearity of load current. In the proposed control strategy, the power quality of the local load can be settled based on th...

The main aim of this project is ,this topology enables UPQC to have a reduced dc-link voltage without compromising its compensation capability. Three-phase, four-wire unified Power Quality (UPQC) to improve power quality. The UPQC is realized by the integration of series and shunt active power filters (APF) sharing a common dc bus capacitor. The realization of shunt APF is carried out using a t...

A new topology of unified power quality conditioner (UPQC) is proposed for different power quality (PQ) improvement in a three-phase four-wire (3P-4W) distribution system. For neutral current mitigation, a star-hexagon transformer is connected in shunt near the load along with three-leg voltage source inverters (VSIs) based UPQC. For the mitigation of source neutral current, the uses of passive...

Voltage source inverters (VSIs) are usually used for all kinds of distributed generation interfaces in a microgrid. It’s the microgrid’s superiority to power the local loads continuously when the utility fails. When in islanded mode the voltage and frequency of the microgrid are determined by the VSIs, therefore the power quality can be deteriorated under unbalanced and nonlinear loads. A volta...

The topology and control of three-phase 4-wire DSTATCOM consisting of a operating flexibility in the DSTATCOM consisting of a operating flexibly in the voltage or current control mode. In the voltage control DSTATCOM topology includes three single-phase voltage source converters connected in parallel. The proposed DSTATCOM provides the voltage regulation of power factor correction along with ha...

A broad band RF cavity loaded with magnetic alloy cores has been developed for the Japanese Hadron Facility synchrotrons. Its Q-value can be chosen at between 0.5 and 5. To reduce transient beam loading effects, a small Qvalue (< 3) is preferable to shorten the transient period. However, the circulating beam current of up to 7 A will induce a spurious voltage at the accelerating gap, which defo...

In this paper, a simple three-phase grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) inverter topology consisting of a boost section, a low-voltage three-phase inverter with an inductive filter, and a step-up transformer interfacing the grid is considered. Ideally, this topology will not inject any lower order harmonics into the grid due to high-frequency pulse width modulation operation. However, the non-idea...

Ac to DC converter is used for operating DC electrical machine and also supplies DC power to battery which is used for many purposes. The main purpose of this project is to compensate the harmonics by using harmonic current compensation and reactive power control. If reactive power is compensate prior to system then non linearity or harmonics present in the system does not much affect the exist...
