INTRODUCTION
The enhancement of voltage sags, harmonic distortion and low power factor. Using Distribution Static Compensator (D-STATCOM) with LCL Passive Filter in distribution system. The model is based on the Voltage Source Converter (VSC) principle. The D-STATCOM injects a current into the system to mitigate the voltage sags. LCL Passive Filter was then added to D-STATCOM to improve harmonic distortion and low power factor.
reactive power.
If the output voltage of the VSC is greater than AC bus terminal voltages, D-STATCOM is said to be in
capacitive mode.
Suitable adjustment of the phase and magnitude of the DSTATCOM output voltages allows effectives control of
CONTROLLER
PI controller will process the error signal to zero. The load r.m.s voltage is brought back to the reference voltage. comparing the reference voltage with the r.m.s voltages that had been measured at the load point. PWM generator is the device that generates the Sinusoidal PWM waveform or signal. To operate PWM generator, the angle is summed with the phase angle of the balance supply voltages equally at 120 degrees.
It carries the input ripple current of the converter and it is the main reactive energy storage element. This DC capacitor could be charged by a battery source or could be recharged by the converter itself.
METHODOLOGY
TEST SYSTEM
A two-level D-STATCOM is connected to the 11 kV tertiary winding to provide instantaneous voltage support at the load point. A 750 F capacitor on the dc side provides the DSTATCOM energy storage capabilities. Breaker 1 is used to control the period of operation of the D-STATCOM and breaker 2 is used to control the connection of load 1 to the system.
RESULTS
A. Without insertion of D-STATCOM
DSTATCOM
CONCLUSION
The simulation results show that the voltage sags can be mitigate by inserting D-STATCOM to the distribution system. By adding LCL Passive filter to D-STATCOM, the THD is reduced . The power factors also increase close to unity. It can be concluded that by adding D-STATCOM with LCL filter the power quality is improved.
