<p>Power distribution network in Iraq still suffers from significant problems regarding electricity distribution level. The most important problem is the disturbances that are occurring on lines voltages, which in turn, will negatively affect sensitive loads they feed on. Protection of these loads could be achieved efficiently and economically using the dynamic voltage restorer DVR when installed between the voltage source and load to inject required compensation voltage to the network during the disturbances period. The DVR mitigates these disturbances via restoring the load voltage to a pre-fault value within a few milliseconds. To control the DVR work, dq0 transformation concept and PID method with sinusoidal pulse-width modulation SPWM based converter had been used to correct the disturbances and thus enhance the power quality of the distribution network. The DVR performance was tested by MATLAB/Simulink with all kinds of expected voltage disturbances and results investigated the effectiveness of the proposed method.</p>

Power quality is a major concern in electrical power systems. The power quality disturbances such as sags, swells, harmonic distortion and other interruptions have impact on the electrical devices and machines and in severe cases can cause serious damages. Therefore it is required to recognize and compensate all types of disturbances at an earliest to ensure normal and efficient operation of the power system. To solve these problems, many types of power devices are used. At the present time, one of those devices, Dynamic Voltage Restorer (DVR) is the most efficient and effective device used in power distribution system. In this paper, design and modeling of a new structure of multifunctional DVR for voltage correction is presented. The performance of the device under different conditions such as voltage swell, voltage sag due to symmetrical and unsymmetrical short circuit, starting of motors, and voltage distortion are described. Simulation result shows the superior capability of proposed DVR to improve power quality under different operating conditions. The proposed new DVR controller is able to detect the voltage disturbances and control the converter to inject appropriate voltages independently for each phase and compensate to load voltage through three single- phase transformers.

This work presents the design and simulation of a Dynamic Voltage Restorer (DVR) to mitigate power quality problems such as voltage sags and swells at sensitive loads to these types of disturbances, but with a compensation topology using one the most popular of the renewable energies, currently employed, which is photovoltaic solar energy. The DVR must operate with a control loop, monitoring the voltage at the load side and generating the voltage for compensation during the disturbances. The energy is obtained, from an array of solar panels for the injection of active power. The control algorithm discussed in this article is based on the Clark and Park transformations to generate the required signals for voltage compensation, these mathematical techniques allow fixing the variables and hence simplicity for the controller design. The results of the simulation in MATLAB/Simulink are used to show the performance of the proposed topology with symmetrical voltage sags in the distribution system.

Power quality is one of the areas that the power sector is worried about. Power quality is the measure of practical system resemblance to ideal system. Voltage quality can be defined as the maintenance of voltage waveform shape close to ideal shape with proper magnitude and frequency. Even a slight change in voltage of the system can cause serious damage to the power system. Sensitive loads cannot adjust for small change in voltage. This paper presents Dynamic Voltage Restorer (DVR) for voltage harmonic suppression along with sag/swell compensation in distribution system. DVR is a voltage source converter which sends compensating signals when operated through switches of voltage source converter. This paper presents a novel control strategy to control DVR to block out the voltage harmonics in distribution system. The models and results are developed using MATLAB/SIMULINK software and comparative analysis of source voltage harmonics and load voltage harmonics during sag/swell compensation was tabulated.

In this paper, an incorporated bridge-type superconducting fault current limiter (BSFCL) and Dynamic Voltage Restorer (DVR) is presented to improve the voltage quality and limiting fault current problems in distribution systems. In order to achieve these capabilities, the BSFCL and DVR are integrated through a common DC link as a BSFCL-DVR system. The FCL and DVR ports of the BSFCL-DVR system are located in the beginning and end of the sensitive loads’ feeder integrated to the point of common coupling (PCC) in the distribution system. At first, the principle operation of the BSFCL-DVR is discussed. Then, a control system for the BSFCL-DVR system is designed to enhance the voltage quality and limit the fault current. Eventually, the efficiency of the BSFCL-DVR system is verified through the PSCAD/EMTDC simulation.

Increased utilization of nonlinear loads in the power distribution system with profound integration of renewable energy requires improved power quality control. This paper proposes a Reformed Second Order Generalized Integrated (R-SOGI) control scheme for enhancing the output of the Dynamic Voltage Restorer (DVR) for the objective of achieving the desired sinusoidal voltage wave shape at the common point of services and harmonic reduction. The DVR incorporates a Solar Photovoltaic (SPV) system using the Z-source Inverter (ZSI), providing the necessary active power to mitigate the voltage sag/swell and power demand. ZSI offers step-down as well as step-up abilities, it makes the converters to operate in the conditions of shoot-through. Therefore, the application of ZSI-based DVR topology seems very promising. The compensating reference voltage is generated by the R-SOGI algorithm, which offers superior output under conditions for grid voltage irregularities, including voltage sag/swell and unbalanced and distorted utility grid voltages. In comparison to DVR based on the VSI voltage inverter (VSI), the response from ZSI-DVR to a reduction of voltage distortions and harmonics is investigated. An experimental SPV ZSI-DVR prototype is developed in the laboratory to check the effectiveness of the controller and is tested under balanced and unbalanced supply and dynamic load conditions.

A dynamic voltage restorer is a power quality (custom power) device used to correct the voltage disturbances by injecting voltage as well as power into the system. The compensation capability of a dynamic voltage restorer (DVR) depends primarily on the maximum voltage injection ability and the amount of stored energy available within the restorer. In this paper a new phase advance compensation (PAC) strategy for the DVR is proposed in order to enhance the voltage restoration property of the device. Also a method of determining the exact amount of voltage injection required to systematically correct a specific voltage drop with minimum active power injection is proposed. Using the proposed method it can be shown that a particular disturbance can be corrected with less amount of storage energy compared to that of existing in-phase boosting method. Analytical expressions for both the magnitude and angle of the injected voltage are also derived. A closed-loop controller that consists of an inner current loop and an outer voltage loop is also incorporated into the DVR system.

In this paper, latest technology is introduced in substitution to conventional voltage and current type inverter with Transformer based impedance (Z) source inverter in voltage sag assessment and mitigation and compared with voltage source inverter based dynamic voltage restorer. Transformer based impedance source inverters (Trans-Z source inverters) are newly proposed inverters that can be used to overcome downside of voltage source inverter, current source inverter and impedance source (Z-source) inverter. T-Z source inverter consists of transformer with high frequency and low leakage inductance along with low reactive component compared with conventional Z source inverter. In case of T-Z source inverter, voltage stress throughout Z-source capacitor is reduced along with inrush current limitation at startup. This paper presents modeling of T-Z source inverter based dynamic voltage restorer using MATLAB/SIMULINK software along with its THD analysis which is compared with VSI based dynamic voltage restorer. Here abc to dq0 control algorithm is employed. The control technique which is employed for simulation shows excellent results for voltage sag and swell compensation.
