Active power filters (APF) can be employed for harmonic compensation in power systems. In this paper, a fuzzy based method is proposed for identification of probable APF nodes of a radial distribution system. The modified adaptive particle swarm optimization (MAPSO) technique is used for final selection of the APFs size. A combination of Fuzzy-MAPSO method is implemented to determine the optimal allocation and size of APFs. New fuzzy membership functions are formulated where the harmonic current membership is an exponential function of the nodal injecting harmonic current. Harmonic voltage membership has been formulated as a function of the node harmonic voltage. The product operator shows better performance than the AND operator because all harmonics are considered in computing membership function. For evaluating the proposed method, it has been applied to the 5-bus and 18-bus test systems, respectively, which the results appear satisfactorily. The proposed membership functions are new at the APF placement problem so that weighting factors can be changed proportional to objective function.

With significant development of power electronics technology, the proliferation of nonlinear loads such as static power converters has deteriorated power quality in power transmission and distribution systems. Notably, voltage harmonics resulting from current harmonics produced by the nonlinear loads have become a serious problem in many countries. Many photovoltaic power generation systems installed in building systems have harmonics that are the worst object for distribution systems as a utility interactive system, and it tends to spread out continuously. Proposed and implemented in this paper is a multi-function inverter control strategy that allows a shunt active filter function to the power inverter of the photovoltaic power generation system established on a building system. The effectiveness of the proposed system is demonstrated through the simulation of a hypothetical power system using PSCAD/EMTDC.

This paper presents two methods of designing a Broadband Impedance Matching (BIM) circuit for maximizing a power line communication (PLC) equipment (or Modem) signal injection into its load at any power line connection port. This optimal (BIM) circuit design is achieved in two phases: Butterworth gain function and Tchebycheff gain function. According to the comparison of simulation and practical results, the performances of two gain functions on BIM are discussed.

This paper describes an efficient optimization algorithm by calculating sensitivity function for power system stabilization. In power system, the dynamic performance of exciter, governor etc. following a disturbance can be presented by a nonlinear differential equation. Since a nonlinear equation can be linearized for small disturbances, the state equation is expressed by a system matrix with system parameters. The objective function for power system operation will be related to the system parameter and the initial state at the optimal control condition for control or stabilization. The object function sensitivity to the system parameter can be considered to be effective in selecting the optimal parameter of the system.

This paper proposes an algorithm for determining critical generator lists using accelerating power and synchronizing power coefficient (SPC), and critical generator group (CGG) from CGG candidates, which is a combination of critical generators. The accurate determination of CGG provides a more accurate energy margin while providing system operator with information of possible unstable generator group. Classical transient energy function (TEF) method selects the critical generators with big corrected kinetic energy of each generator at the moment of fault removal. However, the generator with small acceleration after fault, that is, the generator with small corrected kinetic energy, is also likely to belong to CGG if the generator has small synchronizing power. The proposed algorithm has been verified to be effective compared with the classical TEF method. We utilized the power system of Korean Electric Power Corporation(KEPCO) as a test system.

With significant development of power electronics technology, the proliferation of nonlinear loads such as static power converters has deteriorated power quality in power transmission and distribution systems. Notably, voltage harmonics resulting from current harmonics produced by the nonlinear loads have become a serious problem in many countries. There are already a lot of PV power generation systems installed in building systems whose harmonics are the worst object for distribution systems as a utility interactive system and also it tends to spread out continuously. In this paper, the authors propose a multy-function inverter control strategy which puts a shunt active filter function to the power inverter of the PV power generation system established on a building system. The effectiveness of the proposed system is demonstrated through the simulation of hypothetical power system using PSCAD/EMTDC.

Increasing of the nonlinear power electronics equipments, power conditioning systems have been researched and developed for many years to compensate the harmonic disturbances and the reactive power. The main function of power conditioning systems is to reduce harmonic distortions, since extensive surveys quantify the problems associated with electric networks having non-linear loads. The main function of power conditioner compensates the current instead of the voltage. Therefore the inverter used in power conditioner is mostly the current controlled type. In this paper, we propose the power conditioner using photovoltaic system, which is operated by the PRT(Polarized Ramp Time) current control algorithm. The proposed system could also achieve Demand Side Management's function and Uninterruptible Power Supply's function simultaneously. To verify the proposed current controlled inverter for improved quality of the grid, the detail simulation and experiment results indicate that operation PCS, DSM and UPS can be achieved.

본 논문은 복잡한 비평활 발전비용함수를 가진 경제급전의 최적화 문제를 풀기 위해 단순히 선형 근사함수를 이용하는 방법을 제안하였다. 제안된 알고리즘은 비평활 발전비용 함수를 선형으로 근사시키고, 요구량이 현재의 발전량을 초과하는 경우 발전단가가 비싼 발전기의 가동을 중지시키고, 발전단가가 보다 큰 발전기의 발전량을 감소시켜 요구량과 발전량의 균형을 맞추는 개념을 도입하였다. 경제급전 문제의 시험사례로 빈번히 활용되고 있는 데이터에 대해 제안된 알고리즘을 적용한 결과 기존의 휴리스틱 알고리즘의 최적화 해를 획기적으로 감소시킬 수 있었으며, 현재 실무적으로 적용되고 있는 2차 평활함수 근사법과 유사한 결과를 얻었다.

Flexible AC Transmission System (FACTS) application study on enhancing the flexibility of AC power system has continued to make progress. A thyristor-controlled series capacitor (TCSC) is a useful FACTS device that can control the power flow by adjusting line impedances and minimize the loss of power flow and voltage drop in a transmission system by adjusting line impedances. Reduced power flow loss leads to increased loadability, low system loss, and improved stability of the power system. This study proposes the optimal location and compensation rate method for TCSCs, by considering both the power system loss and voltage drop of transmission systems. The proposed method applies a multi-objective function consisting of a minimizing function for power flow loss and voltage drop. The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated using IEEE 14- and a 30-bus system.
