Increase of rectifiers for converting AC current to DC current can increase current harmonic in grids. These rectifiers can be Diode rectifiers or Thyristor based rectifiers used for variable speed drives or other applications. Then, a filter should be used to reduce these harmonic components. In this project, a Voltage Source Converter (VSC) is used as distributed static var compensation (D-STATCOM) to mitigate current harmonic produced by rectifiers. This Power quality issue is introduced, and its IEEE standard is discussed. Then its source and effect on grid is studied and simulation results are shown. Finally, a VSC D-STATCOM is used for mitigation of current harmonic in power systems.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
