In this paper, a static var compensator using PWM Cuk AC-AC converter is presented. The PWM Cuk AC-AC converter is modelled by using complex circuit DQ transformation whereby the basic condition to be used as a var compensator is derived and the static characteristic equations such as input current and reactive power is analytically obtained. Finally, the PSIM simulations show the validity of the modelling and analysis.

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.

본 논문에서는 고압용 정지형 무효전력 보상장치의 스위칭 모듈의 속도 제어 및 온도 제어 기법을 제안한다. 지속적인 전력 수요의 증가에 따른 발전 설비 및 송 배전설비의 신규 건설이 요구되고 있으며, 전력수송설비의 신 증설로 전력수송로의 병목현상에 따른 문제점이 나타나고 있다. 따라서 기존설비의 이용률을 극대화하고, 신규건설 없이 송전용량을 증대시키는 방안이 연구 되고 있다. 기존의 정지형 무효전력 보상장치 제어 방식에서는 전원입력회로에서 전위 검출하여 SCR를 직접 스위칭 동작하게 되어 있어서 노이즈가 발생하게 된다. 제안한 방법은 SCR 양단의 전위차를 바탕으로 스위칭 제어하여 스위칭 속도가 향상되고 노이즈가 감소하게 된다. 또한 스위칭 속도 증가로 발생하는 발열을 실시간 온도 제어함으로 안정성을 향상하였다. 실제 실험 환경을 구성하여 제안한 고압용 정지형 무효전력 보상장치의 속도 및 온도 제어를 실험하고, 실제 현장에서 성능을 검증하였다. 제안한 고압용 정지형 무효전력 보상장치의 스위칭 모듈을 통한 온도 제어를 실험하고, 실제 현장에서 성능을 검증하였다.

With the propagation and spread of the new regeneration energy and increase in electricity demand, power systems tend to be decentralized, and accordingly, the use of a power system stabilizer tends to expand for the stabilization of the distribution system. Thus, typical power system stabilizer, Static Var Compensator (SVC) is developed on a variety of topologies. In addition, the trend of technology leads from SVC to Static Synchronous Compensator(STATCOM) technology development. Recently, to overcome STATCOM's conversion losses and economic disadvantages, studies of a hybrid method using STATCOM and SVC in parallel have actively been conducted. This study proposes a new Soft-Step Switching method to limit inrush current problematic in Thyristor Controlled Capacitor (TCC) method in SVC function. In addition, to reduce Statcom's capacity, groups of reactive power compensation reactor and condenser for SVC were designed.

This paper presents the steady-state analysis of the three-phase self-excited induction generator (SEIG). The three-phase SEIG with a squirrel cage rotor is driven by a variable-speed prime mover (VSPM) or a constant-speed prime mover (CSPM) such as a wind turbine or a micro gas turbine. Furthermore, a PI closed-loop feedback voltage regulation scheme of the three-phase SEIG driven by a VSPM on the basis of the static VAR compensator (SVC) is designed and evaluated for the stand-alone AC and DC power applications. The simulation and experimental results prove the practical effectiveness of the additional SVC with the PI controller-based feedback loop in terms of its fast responses and high performances

In this paper, the steady-state analysis of the three-phase self-excited induction generator (SEIG) driven by a variable-speed prime mover (VSPM) such as a wind turbine is presented. The steady-state torque-speed characteristics of the VSPM are considered with the three-phase SEIG equivalent circuit for evaluating the operating performances due to the inductive load variations. Furthermore, a PI closed-loop feedback voltage regulation scheme based on the static VAR compensator (SVC) for the three-phase SEIG driven by the VSPM is designed and considered for the wind power generation conditioner. The simulation and experimental results prove the practical effectiveness of the additional SVC with the PI controller-based feedback loop in terms of fast response and high performances.

In this paper, a new continuously and linearly controlled capacitive static VAR compensator is proposed for the automatic power factor correction of inductive single phase loads in 220V 50Hz power system networks. The compensator is constructed of a harmonic-suppressed TCR equipped with a new adaptive current controller. The harmonic-suppressed TCR is a new configuration that includes a thyristor controlled reactor (TCR) shunted by a passive third harmonic filter. In addition, the parallel configuration is connected to an AC source via a series first harmonic filter. The harmonic-suppressed TCR is designed so that negligible harmonic current components are injected into the AC source. The compensator is equipped with a new adaptive closed loop current controller, which responds linearly to reactive current demands. The no load operating losses of this compensator are negligible when compared to its capacitive reactive current rating. The proposed system is validated on PSpice which is very close in terms of performance to real hardware.

Improving grid connection of wind farms is a relevant issue to be addressed, especially for fixed-speed wind turbines. Certain elements, such as FACTS (Flexible AC Transmission Systems), are able to perform voltage and reactive power regulation in order to support voltage stability of wind farms, and compensate reactive power consumption from the grid. Several devices are grouped under the name of FACTS, which embrace different technologies and operating principles. Here, three of them are evaluated and compared, namely STATCOM (Static Synchronous Compensator), SVC (Static Var Compensator) and SSSC (Static Synchronous Series Compensator). They have been modeled in MATLAB/Simulink, and simulated under various scenarios, regarding both normal operation and grid fault conditions. Their response is studied together with the case when no FACTS are implemented. Results show that SSSC improves the voltage stability of the wind farm, whereas STATCOM and SVC provide additional reactive power.

본 논문에서는 UPQC 시스템과 SVC를 결합한 새로운 형태의 보상장치를 제안하고자 한다. 기존의 UPQC는 직렬형 인버터, 병렬형 인버터, DC 링크로 구성되어 있어있으며 우수한 전력품질 보상 성능을 보이지만 높은 인버터 정격을 요구한다. 제안된 방식은 직렬형 인버터, 병렬형 인버터와 DC 링크 그리고 병렬형 인버터의 출력단에 결합된 SVC로 구성되어 있으며, 기존 UPQC에 비해 넓은 무효전력 보상 범위와 낮은 DC 링크 전압의 장점을 가지고 있다. 또한, SVC가 결합된 새로운 UPQC의 구성은 Matlab 시뮬레이션을 통해 성능을 검증하였다.
