This paper describes simulation and experimental results to analyze the dynamic characteristics of STATCOM, which is connected to the ac system for compensation the power factor and improving the voltage stability. The simulation and experimental results confirm that the scaled model for STATCOM can properly compesate the power factor of the load and regulate the bus voltage at the common connection point.

Previous publications regarding the design and specifications of the interface inductor and the DC side capacitor for a STATCOM usually deal with the interface inductor and the DC side capacitor only. They seldom pay attention to the influences of the interface inductor and capacitor on the performance of a STATCOM system. In this paper a detailed analysis of influence of the interface inductor and the DC side capacitor on a STATCOM system and the corresponding design considerations is presented. Phase and amplitude control is considered as the control strategy for the STATCOM. First, a model of a STATCOM system is carried out. Second, through frequency domain methods, such as transfer functions and Bode plots, the influence of the interface inductor and the DC side capacitor on the stability and filtering characteristics of the STATCOM are extensively investigated. Third, according to this analysis, the design considerations based on the phase margin for the interface inductor and the DC side capacitor are discussed, which leads to parameters that are different from those of the traditional design.

Load variations on a distribution line result in voltage fluctuations at the point of common coupling (PCC). In order to keep the magnitude of the PCC voltage constant at its rated value and obtain zero voltage regulation (ZVR), a D-STATCOM is installed for voltage correction. Moreover, the ZVR mode of a D-STATCOM can also be used to balance the source current during unbalanced loading. For medium voltage and high power applications, a D-STATCOM is realized by the cascaded H-bridge topology. In the ZVR mode, the D-STATCOM may draw unbalanced current and in this process is required to handle different phase powers leading to deviations in the cluster voltages. Zero sequence voltage needs to be injected for ZVR mode, which creates circulating power among the phases of the D-STATCOM. The computed zero sequence voltage and the individual DC capacitor balancing controller help the DC cluster voltage follow the reference voltage. The effectiveness of the control scheme is verified by modeling the system in MATLAB/SIMULINK. The obtained simulations are further validated by the experimental results using a dSPACE DS1106 and five-level D-STATCOM experimental set up.

In this papur, the STATCOM (STATic synchronous COMpensator) application for efficient operations of wind farm is described. The wind farm connected with the electric power network is one of good alternative energy sources. However, it would be also highly possible that interconnection of wind farm causes unwanted influences on distribution system operation, protection and control. This paper proposes the STATCOM application for reducing the negative effects from interconnection of wind farm with distribution networks. The simulation results show that STATCOM would be on effective and useful device to resolve the bad influences from wind farm on distribution networks and improve the operational efficiency of wind farm. In the simulation, the radial distribution network of IEEE 13 bus was modeled using PSCAD/EMTDC.

In HVDC converters that employ a line-commutated control, reactive power is absorbed by the rectifier and inverter terminals during AC/DC conversion. An AC filter usually consists of filters and large shunt capacitors to supply reactive power to the HVDC station. When STATCOM is used to supply reactive power to the HVDC system with AC filter, the low-order harmonics generated from STATCOM can result in a resonance between the shunt capacitor and AC network. Therefore, a control strategy based on selective harmonic elimination is adopted to minimize the low-order harmonics from STATCOM. The cancellation of harmonic instabilities is verified through simulations in PSCAD/EMTDC.
