Design and Control of Wind integrated Shunt Active Power Filter to Improve Power Quality

摘要

In this paper wind energy conservation system (WECS) with shunt active power filter (SAPF) is proposed for harmonics elimination, power factor correction, reactive power compensation and grid current balancing. Adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) based controller is implemented at WECS side to control the boost converter to achieve MPP and at SAPF sides to minimize voltage variations and enhance power quality. Here, synchronous reference frame (SRF) theory based reference current generation technique is employed in SAPF. The proposed scheme is implemented in MATLAB/Simulink. The results confirm that this method has better performance and can maintain total harmonic distortion (THD) level of the system within the IEEE standard 519.
