A static var compensator using hybrid cascade 5-level PWM inverter is presented for high voltage/high power applications. The proposed system is modelled by circuit DQ transformation, and thus an equivalent circuit is obtained which reveals the important characteristics of the system and lead to the related equations. The proposed system has advantages of hybrid structure which enhances the better utilization of power semiconductor switches, that is, both high power-low frequency switch, GTO and low power-high frequency switch, IGBT can be used in the same circuit. In this paper, circuit structure and characteristics is presented and the validity of the characteristics analysis is shown through PSIM simulation.

본 논문에서는 송전선로에 직렬로 삽입되어 선로의 리액턴스를 동적으로 보상하는 인버터식 직렬보상기에 대한 동적 응동 해석을 기술하고 있다. 이 직렬보상기는 다중펄스로 동작하는 전압원인버터와 결합변압기, 그리고 제어장치로 구성되어 있으며, 점호각을 조절하여 선로의 리액턴스를 가변하고 용량성 뿐만 아니라 유도성 보상도 가능하다. 이 보상기로 선로의 리액턴스를 감소시키면 전송 유효전력의 증각가 가능한데, 이러한 효과를 본 논문에서는 단일기-무한대-버스 전력계통에 대해 EMTP를 이용한 시뮬레션으로 확인하였으며, 또한 축소모형 제작과 실험을 통해 실험적으로 확인하였다.

This paper describes a feasibility analysis result of STATCOM application for the Jeju-Haenam HVDC system. The Jeju-Haenam HVDC system is one of the typical HVDC system interconnected with the low short-circuit-ratio AC system, which is vulnerable to the commutation failure due to the AC voltage variation. STATCOM has been considered as an effective reactive-power compensator to increase short-circuit-ratio of the interconnected AC system. In this study, a simulation model of Jeju-Hacnam HVDC system with STATCOM was developed using PSCAD/EMTDC. The developed simulation model was utilized to analyze the dynamic performance analysis of Jeju-Haenam HVDC system with STATCOM. The analysis results show that STATCOM can improve the dynamic performance of Jeju-Haenam HVDC system, such as load-change recovery performance and fault recovery performance.

This paper describes a scaled model for PWM thyristor current-source inverter with a commutation circuit. The system consists of a 6-pulse thyristor bridge and an LC resonant circuit with thyristor switches, which offers thyristors to have turn-off capability for PWM operation with minimal switching losses. The proposed system can be used as a reactive power compensator with PWM operation for the utilitity application. There would be two advantages in the proposed system over the existing voltage source inverter. One is the low system cost due to using the conventional thyristors. Another is easy expansion of system operation voltage because th series operation of thyristor devices is already proven in HVDC system.

Multilevel voltage source inverters are emerging as a new breed of power inverter options for high power applications. This paper presents a cascade typed multilevel voltage source inverter which has separate de sources for high voltage. This inverter is proposed for flexible ac transmission systems (FACTS) including static var compensator(SVC), series compensation and phase shifting. It can solve the problems of conventional transformer-based multipulse inverters and the problems of multilevel diode-clamped inverters. To show the superiority of multilevel cascaded inverter, simulation results are discussed in detail.

This paper proposes analysis and suppression method for reactive power vibration of the slave motor caused by back-EMF mismatch between the master and the slave motor and stator resistance during middle-low speed operation. The master and slave motors are parallel connected dual SPMSMs(Surface mounted Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors) fed by a single inverter. To suppress vibration of reactive power, RPC(Reactive Power Compensator) proposed in this paper analyzes flux-axis current vibration of the slave motor that occurs in middle-low speed operation using a mathematical model of the fan motor. And RPC adds vibration components detected from flux-axis current of the slave motor to flux-axis current of the master motor. The results of experiment conducted verify the efficacy of the proposed method.
