Abstract
This paper presents a novel adaptive dc-link voltage-controlled LC coupling hybrid active power filter (LC-HAPF) for reducing switching loss and switching noise under reactive power compensation. First, the mathematical relationship between LC-HAPF dc-link voltage and reactive power compensation range is deduced and presented. Based on the compensation range analysis, the required minimum dc-link voltage with respect to different loading reactive power is deduced. Then, an adaptive dc-link voltage controller for the three-phase four-wire LC-HAPF is proposed, in which the dc-link voltage as well as the reactive power compensation range can be adaptively changed according to different inductive loading situations. Therefore, the compensation range, switching loss, and switching noise of the LC-HAPF can be determined and reduced correspondingly. In this paper, the reference dc-link voltage is classified into certain levels for selection in order to alleviate the problem of dc voltage fluctuation caused by its reference frequent variation, and hence reducing the fluctuation impact on the compensation performances. Finally, representative simulation and experimental results of a three-phase four-wire center-split LC -HAPF are presented to verify the validity and effectiveness of the proposed adaptive dc-link voltage-controlled LC-HAPF in dynamic reactive power compensation.
