This paper introduces a control method of series active power filter that compensate harmonic currents and eliminate a neutral line current in 3 phase 3 wire and 3 phase 4 wire power system with harmonic voltage source. These harmonic currents and neutral line current are caused by a nonlinear loads such as diode rectifiers and thyristor converters. Proposed methode extracts a voltage reference directly from performance function without phase transformation. Therefore, the control method is simpler than any other conventional methods. Experimental results for 3-phase 3-wire and 3-phase 4-wire series active power filter system were shown to verify the effectiveness of this control method.

This paper describes the optimal sizing of each component using computer simulation and presents the efficient operating scheme of series HEV using hardware simulator the equivalent system. As the sizing method of components have been experimental and empirical it is needed to spend much time and development cost. however the results of computer simulation will set the optimal sizing of components in short time. There are two type of driving control power-tracking mode and load-levelling mode in series HEV. This paper presents that series HEV be operated in the load-levelling mode which is more efficient that power-tracking mode.

The unified power quality conditioner (UPQC) is an effective custom power device that is used at the point of common coupling to protect loads from voltage and current-related PQ issues. Currently, most researchers have studied series unit and parallel unit models and an idealized transformer model. However, the interactions of the series and parallel converters in AC-link are difficult to analyze. This study utilizes an equivalent transformer model to accomplish an electric connection of series and parallel converters in the AC-link and to establishes a precise unified mathematical model of the UPQC. The strong coupling interactions of series and parallel units are analyzed, and they show a remarkable dependence on the excitation impedance of transformers. Afterward, a feed-forward decoupling method based on a unified model that contains the uncertainty components of the load impedance is applied. Thus, this study presents an adaptive method to estimate load impedance. Furthermore, simulation and experimental results verify the accuracy of the proposed modeling and decoupling algorithm.

In this paper, we propose a series active power filter control method to compensate current harmonics and unbalanced source voltage. The system is composed of series active power filter and shunt passive filer that are tuned 5th and 7th harmonics. In this conventional system, series active power filter complements drawbacks of the shunt passive filter, namely improves harmonic compensation characteristics, and compensates unbalanced source voltage. In the proposed algorithm, compensation voltage for harmonic reduction is calculated by performance function, and compensation voltage for unbalanced source voltage is calculated in based on a synchronous reference frame. So, ultimate compensation voltage is sum of those two compensation voltages. By computer simulation, we verify the excellency of proposed method.

Identifying the load and mutual inductance is essential for improving the power transfer capability and power transfer efficiency of Inductive Power Transfer (IPT) systems. In this paper, a steady-state load and mutual inductance identification method focusing on series-parallel compensated IPT systems is proposed. The identification model is established according to the steady-state characteristics of the system. Furthermore, two sets of identification results are obtained, and then they are analyzed in detail to eliminate the untrue one. In addition, the identification method can be achieved without extra circuits so that it does not increase the complexity of the system or the control difficulty. Finally, the feasibility of the proposed method has been verified by simulation and experimental results.
