The proposed UPQC is capable of mitigating source current harmonics and compensate all voltage disturbances such as voltage sags, swells, unbalances and harmonics. It is designed by the integration of series and shunt active filters (AFs) sharing a common DC bus capacitor. The DC voltage is maintained constant using proportional integral voltage controller. The synchronous reference frame (SRF) theory is used to get the reference signals for shunt active power filters (APFs) and the power reactive theory (p-q theory) for series APFs. The shunt and series APF reference signals derived from the control algorithm and sensed signals are injected in two controllers to generate switching signals. To improve the UPQC capability, fuzzy logic techniques are introduced to control the series APF. The performances of the proposed UPQC system are evaluated in terms of power factor correction, mitigation of voltage or current harmonics and all other voltage disturbances compensation using Matlab-Simulink software and SimPowerSystem toolbox. The simulation results illustrate the performance of the proposed UPQC at the common connection point of the nonlinear load to improve the power energy quality.展开更多

In this paper, a compensation strategy based on simultaneous reactive power injection for UPQC(namely UPQC-SRI) is proposed to address the issue of voltage sag. The proposed UPQC-SRI determines the injection angle of compensation voltage with consideration of optimal configuration of UPQC current-carrying.Moreover, the compensation strategy also considers the current-carrying limit of UPQC, and then the zero active power injection region of UPQC-SRI(also called UPQCSRI region) is obtained. Under the conditions which exceed the UPQC-SRI region, the limit value of shunt current is determined by this proposed strategy. Finally, the proposed strategy and the corresponding algorithm are verified under the PSCAD/EMTDC platform. The result indicates the proposed UPQC-SRI strategy in this paper can provide more persistent voltage sag compensation than the previous strategies for the sensitive load.展开更多

The controller design procedure has been simplified to the selection of three parameters for each converter. Furthermore, the proposed strategy can be implemented measuring only four variables, which represents a reasonable number of sensors. In addition, a pulse width modulation(PWM)-based modulation with fixed switching frequency is used for both converters. The proposed control strategy has been validated experimentally under different conditions, including grid-frequency variations.展开更多

Considering the DC doubly-fed induction generator(DCDFIG) based wind energy conversion system(WECS), this paper proposes a dual active bridge(DAB) based DC unified power quality conditioner(DC-UPQC) with the integration of superconducting magnetic energy storage(SMES) to maintain the terminal voltage of DC-DFIG and regulate the current flow. The principle of the proposed DC-UPQC has three parts, i.e., parallel-side DAB(PDAB), series-side DAB(SDAB), and SMES,used for the voltage compensation, current and power regulation, and energy storage, respectively. The circuit principle of the PDAB and SDAB and the modeling of SMES are analyzed in this paper. A DC dual control strategy is also proposed to deal with the DC voltage oscillation generated by the AC-side asymmetrical fault. A case study of DC-DFIG interfaced with DC power grid is carried out, integrated with the proposed SMES-based DC-UPQC to verify the high-power applications of the proposed structure. Finally, an experiment is implemented, and the results demonstrate the correctness of the theoretical analysis and the feasibility of the proposed structure.展开更多
