Nowadays, active power filter (APF) is the most popular device for harmonic compensation. This paper presents soft computing techniques compensation of currents harmonics using a shunt (SAPF). The method includes 3-phase supply system with current-controlled voltage source converter (CC-VSC) having an input coupling inductor and output tank capacitor self-supported DC bus. performance can be en...

Passive harmonic filters (PHF) are commonly used in conventional potline rectifier transformers (Rectiformer) schemes of aluminum smelters to improve the power quality and reduce distortions an acceptable level. However, changes operating conditions system configuration affect performance capability PHF attenuating harmonics. In this paper, a Rectiformer scheme with hybrid-shunt active filter (...
