Summary

TLDRThis educational video discusses the simulation model for harmonic mitigation in grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) systems using a synchronous power filter. It covers the PV array, inverter, and LCL filter setup, with a focus on the control mechanisms like MPPT, field-oriented control, and PQ theory. The video demonstrates the impact of adding a non-linear load and the effectiveness of the synchronous power filter in reducing Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) in the grid current, ensuring it meets standards.

Takeaways

  • 🌞 The video discusses a simulation model for harmonic mitigation in a grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) system using a synchronous power filter.
  • 🔌 The model includes a PV array, a boost converter, an inverter, an LCL filter, and a synchronous power filter to connect to the grid.
  • 🔋 The PV array has a rating of 100.2 kilowatts, with 47 power strings, each consisting of 10 series-connected modules, with a maximum power point voltage of 29 volts.
  • 🚀 The boost converter is controlled by a maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithm, which takes PV voltage and current as inputs and outputs a reference voltage.
  • 🔄 The three-phase inverter is controlled using a voltage and current controller, with field-oriented control (FOC) and decoupling techniques employed.
  • 🔗 The PLL (Phase-Locked Loop) generates the frequency and phase reference, converting grid voltage and inverter current into a DQ0 format for control.
  • 🔵 The DC link voltage is maintained at 700 volts, which is the decoupling voltage of the inverter, ensuring stable operation.
  • 🌐 The grid has a voltage of 400 volts and a frequency of 50 Hz, with a non-linear load represented by a diode rectifier with an RL load.
  • 🛠️ The synchronous power filter uses a three-phase inverter, an inductor, and a voltage controller, with compensating current calculated using PQ control theory.
  • 📊 The video demonstrates the simulation process, starting without a non-linear load, then including it, and finally adding the synchronous power filter to mitigate harmonics, with the Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) of the grid current being a key metric of performance.
