Control strategy for hybrid power filter to compensate unbalanced and non-linear, three-phase loads [Póster]

Abstract

A control algorithm is proposed for a three-phase hybrid power filter constituted by a series active filter and a shunt passive filter. The control strategy is based on the dual formulation of the vectorial theory of electrical power, so that the voltage waveform injected by the active filter is able to compensate the reactive power, to eliminate harmonics of the load current and to balance asymmetrical loads. An experimental prototype was developed and experimental results presented.
