This paper proposes the combined control strategy to suppress the voltage and current harmonic contents in a three-phase hybrid fuel cell and wind turbine grid-connected inverters when subjected to non-linear load and unbalanced conditions. This innovative technique can effectively reduce the harmonic contents in the voltage and current of the studied system without any dependence on offset devices such as active and passive filters. The microgrid along with the proposed controlled strategy is modeled in Matlab/Simulink environment. In this research, it shows that the proposed control strategy not only reduces the total harmonic distortion (THD) to less than 5% (as compliance with IEEE 519 standard). It shows the superiority performance in the result as compared to existing techniques with the stabilization of unbalancing condition under different operating conditions with load changes and instant DG insertion.

This paper presents a Dynamic Voltage Restorer to mitigate power quality disturbances such as voltage sag, swell and harmonics. The compensation strategy is based on pre-sag compensation. Controller based on dq0 transformation technique and ANN is implemented in order to maintain the nominal load voltage and phase angle. Simulation studies under three phase rectifier with parallel resistive/capacitive dc load as a non linear load is carried out. Also the system is investigated under voltage sag and swells on source side using programmable AC source. Simulation results show that DVR performs accurately in mitigating disturbances with minimum Total Harmonic Distortion. The performance of DVR is verified using Matlab / Simulink Environment.

Abstract This paper elaborates a hybrid synchronous reference frame method has been proposed for the distribution static compensator (DSTATCOM) to enhance the compensation performance. This controller is designed in such a way that it generate the reference with respect to the change in load to reject the harmonics. Furthermore, a hysteresis controller is employed for switching pattern generation. Fuzzy logic controller is also implemented in MATLAB/simulink environment here to analyze the total harmonic distortion. Experimental analysis of the DSTATCOM demonstrates the potency and reliability of proposed controller over existing control strategy in the from of total harmonic distortion.

This paper presents the effect of total harmonic distortion (THD) in power factor correction (PFC) at non-linear load. This study focuses on the relationship between THD and PFC. This is beacuse,the power factor affects THD. This occurs in power system as we have variety of loads, i. e linear load or non-linear load. The variety of loads will influence the sinusoidal waveform, which comes out from harmonic distortion. Thus, based on this study, we can compare the effective method in improving the power factor as it will not disturb the performance of THD. The focus of study is on the single phase load, where the voltage restriction is 240 V.  The analysis will  only focus on the consumer, which depends on the variety of non-linear load. Besides, the parameters for analysis are based on the percentage of THD and the value of power factor. The instrument for measuring the parameter is based on power factor correction device or technique. On the other hand, the method that was used for this study is based on simulation which incorporated the Multisim software. At the end of ths study, we can choose the most effective method that can be used to improve the power factor correction without disturbing the THD.

The purpose of this paper is to compare mathematical modeling and practical bench in order to validate the electrical interactions between an induction generator and a synchronous generator. Two generators was connected to a common bus in steady state, subject to non-linear load. The results comparing modeling and bench tests show that the induction generator besides the active power increasing, has a better way for harmonic currents flowing in common bus. It was concluded that the induction generator repowering and attenuates current harmonic components present at the connection point, improving the network voltage profile.

This paper proposes a cascade control structure for three-phase grid-connected Photovoltaic (PV) systems. The PV system consists of a PV Generator, DC/DC converter, a DC link, a DC/AC fully controlled inverter, and the main grid. For the control process, a new control strategy using nonlinear Backstepping technique is developed. This strategy comprises three targets, namely, DC/DC converter control; tight control of the DC link voltage; and delivering the desired output power to the active grid with unity power factor (PF). Moreover, the control process relies mainly on the formulation of stability based on Lyapunov functions. Maximizing the energy reproduced from a solar power generation system is investigated as well by using the Perturb and Observe (P&O) algorithm. The Energetic Macroscopic Representation (EMR) and its reverse Maximum Control Structure (MCS) are used to provide, respectively, an instantaneous average model and a cascade control structure. The robust proposed control strategy adapts well to the cascade control technique. Simulations have been conducted using Matlab/Simulink software in order to illustrate the validity and robustness of the proposed technique under different operating conditions, namely, abrupt changing weather condition, sudden parametric variations, and voltage dips, and when facing measurement uncertainties. The problem of controlling the grid-connected PV system is addressed and dealt by using the nonlinear Backstepping control.
