Power Quality Improvement using Passive shunt filters, TCR and TSC combination

Abstract

In this thesis Power Quality Improvement is examined using Passive shunt filter, TCR and TSC combination. Today’s electric power systems are connected to many non-linear loads. The characteristics of these non-linear loads inevitably change the sinusoidal nature of the a.c. power current, resulting in the flow of harmonic current in the a.c. power system. Use of shunt passive filters in the reduction of harmonics offers the advantages of more simplicity, high reliability, high efficiency and low cost. The uncontrolled ac-dc converter suffers from operating problems of poor power factor, injection of harmonics into the ac mains, variations in dc link voltage of input ac supply, equipment overheating due to harmonic current absorption, voltage distortion due to the voltage drop caused by harmonic currents flowing through system impedances etc.The combinations of passive filters with TCR and TSC are designed and analyzed to improve the power quality at ac mains. This scheme has resulted in improved power quality with overall reduced rating of passive components used in front end ac-dc converters with R-L load.
