In this paper, instantaneous reactive power compensation algorithm is proposed and analyzed. The static Var generator developed in this paper is the current source PWM converter using hysteresis comparator method, which compensates the reactive power by detecting each instantaneous phase voltage and line current, independently. Some aspects on the static Var compensator-such as inductance, capacitance, hysteresis width, and switching frequency, etc.-are discussed. The dynamic performances are examined through digital simulation and experimental test.

This paper describes a transformerless static synchronous campensator (STATCOM) system based on cascade H-bridge multilevel inverter with star configuration. It is designed not only for the dynamic and continuous compensation of the reactive power but also for the improvement of power quality of existing wind power plant. Especially, when the induction generator of wind turbine is directly connected to the grid, reactive power are occurred by exiting current. so a reactive power compensation system based on the cascade H-bridge multilevel STATCOM is proposed because the output power quality and controllability of reactive power are required by grid code in many different countries. Using various The proposed reactive power control strategy using a STATCOM is compared with the conventional scheme using fixed-size of capacitor bank through various simulation results.

최근 산업계에서 급증하는 전력수요와 부하의 다양화는 전원의 안정도에 악영항을 미치고 있다. 이는 전압강하는 역률 저하 유/무효 전력의 변동을 초래하고 타부하에 영향을 미치게 되므로 이를 효과적으로 보상할 수 있는 종합적인 보상 시스템이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 전력보상 시스템중의 하나로서 플라이휠을 장착한 권선형 유도기의 2차 여자방식을 제시한다. 본 시스템은 전동기 2차 여자방식을 이용함으로서 기존의 정지형 보상기에 비하여 인버터의 용량을 기존의 것보다 수배 감소시킬 수 있는 장점이 있으며 히스테리시스 전류제어기를 사용하여 직접 전류제어기를 사용하여 직접전류 제어방식을 이용하므로 기존의 시스템과 비교하여 PI제어기의 게인선정의 어려움을 극복하고 제어 알고리즘을 간략화 할 수 있는 특징을 가지고 있다. 또한 전력을 보상하기 위한 에너지 저장요소로 플라이휠의 관성에너지를 사용함으로서 기존의 배터리 방식의 무정전 전원공급장치를 대신하는 효과를 보인다. 설계된 시스템과 제어방식은 시뮬레시션을 통하여 입증하였다.

This paper presents a Static Var Compensator (SVC) system compensating the reactive power for power system, which consists of a voltage type Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) converter and a reactance linking the converter to the source. The system drives the four quadrant modes. The system determines the magnitude of the input voltage, and then compares it with the magnitude of the source voltage by regulating the phase of the SVC about the source. Therefore, the system generates leading compensation currents when the input voltage is larger than the source in magnitude, and lagging compensation currents for smaller input voltage. Reactive power about voluntary load in power system is smoothly compensated by those compensation currents, and also power factor of source is improved. Furthermore, the SVC system using PWM method may improve the source current waveforms by eliminating the 5th and 7th harmonic components from the input voltages.

In this paper, it is suggested that the selection method of parameter of Power System Stabilizer(PSS) with robustness in low frequency oscillation for Static VAR Compensator(SVC) using a self tuning fuzzy controller for a synchronous generator excitation and SVC system. The proposed parameter self tuning algorithm of fuzzy controller is based on the steepest decent method using two direction vectors which make error between inference values of fuzzy controller and output values of the specially selected PSS reduce steepestly. Using input-output data pair obtained from PSS, the parameters in antecedent part and in consequent part of fuzzy inference rules are learned and tuned automatically using the proposed steepest decent method.

An AC electrical railroad system has rapidly changing dynamic single-phase load, and at a feeding substation, three-phase electric power is transformed to the paired directional single-phase electric power. There is a great difference in electrical phenomenon between the load of AC electrical railroad system and that of general power system. Electric characteristics of AC electrical railroad's trainload are changed continuously according to the traction, operating characteristic, operating schedule, track slope, etc. Because of the long feeding distance of the dynamic trainload, power quality problems such as voltage drop, voltage imbalance and harmonic distortion my also occur to AC electrical railroad system. These problems affect not only power system stability, but also power quality deterioration in AC electrical railroad system. The dynamic simulation model of AC electrical railroad system presented by PSCAD/EMTDC is modeled in this paper, andthen, it is analyzed voltage drop for AC electrical railroad system both with single-phase distributed STATCOM(Static Synchronous Compensator) installed at SP(Sectioning Post) and without.
