Due to limited conventional energy sources and to meet the increase of load demand there is a need for utilization of renewable energy sources. Among the all renewable energy sources wind energy is widely used and is highly sustainable as compared to other sources of energy. Many wind energy conversion devices working with doubly fed induction generators and synchronous generators and it is integrated to the grid produces the power quality issues like as voltage sags, swells, harmonics, voltage imbalance and short interruptions etc. Many power electronic based Flexible AC Transmission Systems (FACTS) are designed to solve above problems and facilitate to meet the required power demand. In this paper, UPQC (Unified Power Quality Conditioner) and IUPQC (Improved Unified Power Quality Conditioner) models are designed to mitigate the above power quality issues. In this paper, mainly voltage sags, voltage swells and harmonics are considered as a power quality issues to analyze the UPQC and IUPQC devices. The conventional PID controller is employed in control circuit of both the devices. It also discusses the comparative analysis between UPQC and IUPQC devices. The MATLAB/SIMULINK Software is used for above analysis.
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.
