In this paper, a nonlinear robust control approach is applied to design a controller for the Static Synchronous Compensator (STATCOM). A robust control dynamic model of STATCOM in a one-machine, infinite-bus system is established with consideration of the torque disturbance acting on the rotating shaft of the generator set and the disturbance to the output voltage of STATCOM. A novel recursive ...

Static synchronous compensator (STATCOM) is a shunt connected voltage source converter (VSC), which can affect rapid control of reactive flow in the transmission line by controlling the generated a.c. voltage. The main aim of the paper is to design a power system installed with a Static synchronous compensator (STATCOM) and demonstrates the application of the linearised Phillips-heffron model i...

This paper presents an analysis of the three-phase self-excited induction generator (SEIG) with staticcompensator {STATCOM) as a voltage regulator. Current controlled voltage source inverter (CC-VSI) is used as STATCOM, which provides fast dynamic response to maintain constant voltage at SEIG terminals during severe load perturbations and acts as a source and sink of reactive power. The perform...

Abstract. Eliminating the leakage current is one of the most important issues for transformerless inverters in grid-connected photovoltaic system applications, where the technical challenge is how to keep the system common-mode voltage constant to reduce the leakage current. A novel singlephase three-level topology for transformerless photovoltaic systems is presented in this paper. Compared wi...

This project aims at using (PD-MCPWM) Phase disposition multi carrier pulse width modulation technique to reduce leakage current in a transformerless cascaded multilevel inverter for PV systems. Advantages of transformerless PV inverter topology is as follows, simple structure, low weight and provides higher efficiency , but however this topology provides a path for the leakage current to flow ...

A new single-phase transformerless grid-connected PV inverter is presented in this paper. Investigations in transformerless grid-connected PV inverters indicate the existence of the leakage current is directly related to the variable common-mode voltage (CMV), which is presented in detail. On the other hand, in recent years it has become mandatory for the transformerless grid-connected PV inver...
