Modelling and Simulation of DVR – Ultracapcitor for Power Quality Improvement

Dinesh Kumar Tiwari, Imran Khan

Abstract


The quality of the output power conveyed from the utilities has gotten to be significant worry of the present day commercial ventures since last decay. These power quality related issues are voltage sag, surge, flicker, voltage imbalance interference and harmonic issue. These power quality issue may cause problems to the industries ranging from malfunctioning of equipment’s to complete plant shut down. Those power quality problems affects the microprocessor based load, process equipment’s, sensitive electric component which are highly sensitive to voltage level fluctuations .With the invention of smart grid cost of various energy storage technology decreasing continuously and it also become possible to integrate all things with the real world. Dynamic Voltage Restorer (DVR) that can provide improved sag and swell compensation with integrating energy storing capability. The ultra-capacitor (UCAP) is a high and low energy density gadget with perfect attributes for voltages sag and voltage swells pay. In this paper we are incorporating UCAP-based energy storage into DVR topology. The UCAP-DVR blend will enhance dynamic power capacity and it will have the capacity to repay voltages sag and voltages swell. UCAP will added into dc link of DVR through a bidirectional dc-dc convertor. The simulation model of overall system is devolved and result has been compared.

Keywords: DC–DC convertor, d–q control, DVR, IGBT, PLL, UCAP
