Abstract
The recent modification in utilizing Multifunction Power Conditioner (MPC) such as Unified Power Quality Conditioner devices in power systems has led to different degrees of power losses, owing to electronic power impacts. This paper presents a detailed comparison of power loss analysis in various configurations of MPC, that is, the conventional unified power quality conditioner (UPQC) and the UPQC with distributed generation (〖UPQC〗_DG). The independent losses based on inverter design and distributed generation interfacing to the distribution form the basis for each configuration case. The investigation considered conventional UPQC as the base case for power losses, and the study was extended to 〖UPQC〗_DG at steady state operating condition. In all configurations, Switching Losses (SL) and conduction losses were considered using simulation studies carried out in MATLAB/SIMULINK, and the results obtained in all cases were used for comparative studies. Finally, the outcome indicates that the losses in 〖UPQC〗_DG is more than conventional UPQC based on simulation results in all cases.
期刊介绍:
WSEAS Transactions on Power Systems publishes original research papers relating to electric power and energy. We aim to bring important work to a wide international audience and therefore only publish papers of exceptional scientific value that advance our understanding of these particular areas. The research presented must transcend the limits of case studies, while both experimental and theoretical studies are accepted. It is a multi-disciplinary journal and therefore its content mirrors the diverse interests and approaches of scholars involved with generation, transmission & distribution planning, alternative energy systems, power market, switching and related areas. We also welcome scholarly contributions from officials with government agencies, international agencies, and non-governmental organizations.
