Adoption of Multilevel Inverter based Dynamic Voltage Restorer for Power Quality Improvement with Adjustable DC-Link

Abstract

Dynamic Voltage Restorer (DVR) is a method of overcoming voltage sag and swell in electrical power distribution. To boost up voltage levels on load side on power disturbances DVR can be used so as the equipment connected will have good voltage profile In this Pulse Width Modulation inverter is in solid-state electronic switching device were employed along with Integrated Gate Bipolar Transistor by the DVR, the alternating current voltage is controllable at real and reactive powers which are made independently. The MLI; is organized as the cascaded H-bridge inverter units. The function of Multilevel Inverter; is to arrange the voltages from a significant direct current source. Here in the DVR, there is no need for external output filters. In the planned DVR, a dc-dc converter is combined with an MLI. By considering the voltage sag magnitude of a dc-dc converter can regulate the dc-link voltage. Hence the output voltage of the multilevel inverter; always has a last number of levels. Instead of using the PWM based technique, the fundamental frequency method can be used in the multilevel inverter. The proposed DVR operation range of mathematical analysis is specified in detail. The simulation results are prepared by using Simulink/MATLAB.
