In this paper, a simple control scheme of single-phase shunt active power filter for current harmonics and reactive power compensation of linear and non-linear loads, is proposed. Simplicity of the proposed control scheme is based on uncomplicated reference source current generation and fuzzy logic based dc bus voltage regulation methods. Thus, complex computations are not needed. To indicate r...

In this work a new control strategy for simulation of three phase power filter for power quality improvement is used .This filter consists of shunt passive LC power filter and series active filter, with nonlinear and linear loads and also with variation in the source impedance. A new control method based on dual formulation of instantaneous reactive power vectorial theory is applied by consider...

optimal reactive power dispatch (orpd) is a multi-variable problem with nonlinear constraints and continuous/discrete decision variables. due to the stochastic behavior of loads, the orpd requires a probabilistic mathematical model. in this paper, monte carlo simulation (mcs) is used for modeling of load uncertainties in the orpd problem. the problem is formulated as a nonlinear constrained mul...

for multi-objective optimal reactive power dispatch (morpd), a new approach is proposed where simultaneous minimization of the active power transmission loss, the bus voltage deviation and the voltage stability index of a power system are achieved. optimal settings of continuous and discrete control variables (e.g. generator voltages, tap positions of tap changing transformers and the number of...

Chapter 3 presents ANN based adaptive shunt passive filter, whose performance is found to be superior to fixed element shunt passive filter in harmonic and reactive compensation. However, the drawback is that it can provide only partial harmonic and reactive power compensation. Hence, an ANN based digital controller for active filter is developed. It compensates for the major portion of source ...

The optimal reactive-power compensation problem solving consists of finding the optimal combinations of the capacitors and their locations in a network in a way that technical requirements are satisfied and maximum economical effects are achieved.
