New Adaptive Hysteresis Modulation Technique for Three Phase Shunt Active Power Filter

Department of Electrical Power and Machines Faculty of Engineering Cairo University Giza, Egypt Abstract The quality of the current waveform generated by a current controlled, voltage source shunt active power filter depends basically on three factors: (i) The reference signal being generated; (ii) the modulation method used and (iii) the switching frequency of the PWM modulator. A new adaptiv...

Compensation Strategies for Shunt Active Power Filter in Single- and Three-Phase Systems: Different Formulation, Comparison and Evaluation

Design of an Active Power Filter using Genetic Algorithm Technique

-This paper deals with the active power filter design controlled by using hysteresis technique. The genetic algorithm is used to design the controllers to minimize the %THD of the source current. The results are compared with that designed from Ingram and Round approach. The simulation results confirm that the genetic algorithm can provide the minimum %THD of the source current compared with th...

Single-Phase Shunt Active Power Filter Using Indirect Control Method

A single-phase shunt active power filter is used mainly for the elimination of harmonics in single-phase AC networks. In this paper a single-phase shunt active power filter based on, an indirect control technique is designed and simulated. This control technique is achieved by phase shifting the input signal(voltage/current) by π/2.The overall action of the shunt active power filter to eliminat...

Modelling of Three-phase Shunt Hybrid Active Power Filter

The three-phase Shunt hybrid APF topology for harmonic mitigation in low and medium voltage power distribution systems consists of a VSI based three phase shunt active filter (SAF) and tuned passive filters (TPF) connected in parallel with the load. This chapter discusses the modelling of shunt active filter and design of filter interfacing inductor, DC bus capacitor, tuned passive filters. It ...
