The increasing need for energy requires using existing energy sources more efficiently. Because it is the active power that supplies useful power for industrial facilities, reactive power must be minimized, and supplied by another source instead of electrical grid. Therefore, reactive power supplied by the grid can be reduced via by correcting power factor of the grid. In electrical power systems, power factor correction is called reactive power compensation. Generating reactive power during excessive excitation, synchronous motors are used as dynamic compensators in power systems. Synchronous motors are more cost-effective for industrial facilities when they are used to generate mechanic power and compensate reactive power, which increases the efficiency of industrial facilities. There are various studies focusing on the efficiency, capacity and stability of the power system via reactive power compensation in the literature. In today's world, there are numerous optimization techniques inspired by biological systems. One of these techniques is Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) inspired by the movements of swarms of birds. This study focuses on the reactive power compensation of a power system by controlling the excitation current of a synchronous motor via PSO based PID and Ziegler Nichols (Z-N) based PID controllers.

Abstract The use of an asynchronous generator to power the electrical equipment of the sprinkler is a comprehensive solution that allows you to reduce electrical losses in the supply line. The problem of reactive power compensation for sprinkler machines can be solved by dividing capacitor units into main and additional, the main one is to create the required excitation current in the asynchronous generator, and the additional one is to compensate for the reactive component of the electric motor current. Moreover, an additional unit is installed directly at the outputs of the booster pump to unload the line, and the main capacitor unit is installed near the asynchronous generator.

For resolving the problem that power filter cannot work normally because TCR (thyristor controlled reactor) generates extra third harmonic current under asymmetrical voltage, the paper proposes the estimation method of current capacity that TCR generates extra third harmonic current under asymmetrical voltage. Considering extra third harmonic current under asymmetrical voltage, Optimum method based on genetic algorithm is used to design the parameters of power filter. With reactive power compensation and harmonic suppression project of a steel mill as example, the proposed method is simulated by Matlab. Simulation results show optimized power filter can eliminate extra third harmonic current effects under asymmetrical voltage, meet the requirement of reactive power compensation, reduce harmonics current that load injects into system, and guarantee the power filter safe operation under asymmetrical voltage.
