Adaptive shunt filtering control of UPQC for increased nonlinear loads

Abstract: In a distribution system, to compensate for the effect of voltage sag/swell and mitigate harmonic currents, a unified power quality conditioner (UPQC) is used. Conventionally, the power rating of UPQC is determined based on the expected sag/ swell, linear and nonlinear loads. However, with the shift towards usage of electronic loads and electrical drives, the composition of nonlinear loads is increasing. Hence, the UPQC deployed earlier may not be capable of handling increased harmonic currents due to its limi… Show more

“…The presence of nonlinear loads, such as personal computers, variable frequency drives (VFDs) and arc furnaces, gives rise to power quality problems, e.g., harmonic distortion, voltage fluctuation and noise [3][4][5]. Harmonic distortion in low-voltage distribution systems is responsible for power losses, electric devices heating, insulation failures, interference issues in communication systems and in the worst cases, electric power system failure [6,7]. Therefore, the need for the elimination of power quality problems has become an important issue for both the utility and the customer [8].…”

“…Generally, an active power filter (APF) is used to handle the current-related PQ problems, while dynamic voltage restorer (DVR) is preferred to tackle the voltage-related PQ problems [4,5]. Unified PQ conditioner (UPQC), as the integration of an APF and a DVR sharing a common dc-link [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23], can deal with both current and voltage-type of PQ issues, simultaneously. Specifically, it can regulate load voltage, mitigate voltage transients, eliminate source current harmonics, and correct source power factor over a wide operating range.…”

“…For control purposes, conventional strategies of power‐line compensating usually use non‐sinusoidal voltage/current references to control both voltages and currents of the series and the parallel converters . In this paper, the dual/inverted compensating strategy is adopted to control the parallel converter for acting as a sinusoidal voltage source and the series converter for working as a sinusoidal current source .…”
