An online SPEA-II genetic algorithm for cascaded STATCOM suppressing voltage flicker in electric arc furnace system
The cascaded static synchronous compensator is an efficient solution to suppress the gird voltage flicker in medium-voltage arc furnace systems. The method of transforming the oscillating active power command to reactive power command could achieve a good suppression effect with relatively small submodule capacitance. However, the accuracy of this transformation strongly relies on grid impedance parameters. This paper proposed an online artificial intelligence based strengthen pareto evolution algorithm-II genetic algorithm to optimize the virtual grid impedance parameters dynamically, in the constraint of the capacitor voltage ripple and switch current limitations to suppress the gird voltage flicker as much as possible. The calculated virtual grid parameters are time-varying quantities and well adaptive to the grid parameter drift scenario, and estimated to be easily implemented in the practical use. The merits of the proposed algorithm are demonstrated by a series of carefully designed simulations, where the 20 s 70 MVA arc furnace current data during the melting period is acquired from a practical industrial site. With our proposed method, the average instantaneous flicker values decrease 6.62 % and 20.32 % under constant grid parameter and drifted grid parameter conditions respectively, compared with the conventional method.
