Single phase unified power quality conditioner (UPQC) consists of series and shunt active power filter (APF) with common dccapacitor. Series converter acts as voltage source converter and shunt converter acts as current source converter. Use of non-linear loads results in voltage and current harmonics. These harmonics can be eliminated by using single phase UPQC. So that, which also improves th...

The paper introduces the modified UPQC topology with reduced switching losses. UPQC is a versatile custom power device which consists of two inverters connected back to back and deals with both load current and supply voltage imperfections. It can simultaneously perform as shunt and series active power filters. The series part of the UPQC acts as Dynamic Voltage Restorer (DVR). It is used to ma...

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, a simplified control algorithm based on unit vector template generation (UVTG) is proposed for a stardelta supported three-phase four-wire (3P-4W) unified power quality conditioner (UPQC) topology for the improvement of different power quality problems. Different topologies reported in literature for 3P-4W UPQC use active compensation for the mitigation of source neutral current ...

This paper proposes a matrix converter based unified power quality conditioner (MC–UPQC) for mitigating power quality problems. This proposed system is a combination of unified power quality conditioner and matrix converter. The UPQC is a combination of back-toback connected series and shunt active filters through a dclink. Voltage disturbances and harmonics are compensated by series active fil...

In this article, a multi-objective planning is demonstrated for reactive power compensation in radial distribution networks with wind generation via unified power quality conditioner (UPQC). UPQC model, based on phase angle control (PAC), is used. In presented method, optimal locating of UPQC-PAC is done by simultaneous minimizing of objective functions such as: grid power loss, percentage of n...
