<p>The quality of power is a major concern because of harmonics in the lines due to various sources. Passive filters have been used to eliminate the specific harmonics. In this paper shunt hybrid active power filter which consists of shunt active filter and shunt passive filter is designed to reduce harmonics in source   side for non linear loads. The shunt passive filter includes a tuned RLC circuit that behaves like a band-pass filter for a particular harmonic content. The shunt active filter is a VSI that produces reverse harmonic current based on Clarke’s transformation. This paper presents the control strategy by implementing instantaneous reactive power theory to design Shunt Hybrid Active Filter (SHAPF) for a non linear load. The proposed control technique is simulated using MATLAB SIMULINK, Results prove there is considerable reduction in THD of source current from 30.35% to 3.25% with the proposed controller on   shunt hybrid active power filter.   The performance of SHAPF is better than Passive and Shunt Active Power Filters.</p><p> </p>

According to the specific property of traction supply system, a novel hybrid active power filter (HAPF) is designed in this paper. The new HAPF topology is that, after the impedance of fundamental wave is in parallel with the active power filter (APF), it is series connected passive filter. The kinds of structure can reduce the VA rating of the APF greatly. The small rating active power filter is used to improve filtering characteristics of the passive filter and suppress possible resonance between the traction supply system impedance and the passive filter. Through MATLAB simulation, it shows that the control strategy of power quality is apparently effective, and it plays an important role in enhancing the reliability of transformer station and the operating security of electric railway.

Abstract In the paper the analysis of a three-phase hybrid active power filter stability has been presented. Configuration with a single tuned passive filter was used as an example. However, the analysis can be applied to similar configurations of hybrid filters with closed loop control. The article presents a model of the analyzed system in the frequency domain. The division of the model into two independent systems, for positive and negative components, allowed to apply the Nyquist criterion for the stability analysis in this case. As a part of the analysis, the effect of delays, control signal filter parameters, and passive filter parameters have been examined. Based on the presented stability analysis, system parameters for the experimental model of a hybrid power filter have been selected. Finally, experimental results confirming the validity of the analysis have been shown.
