Power Quality Enhancement Using Custom Power Devices (Paperback)

POWER QUALITY ENHANCEMENT USING CUSTOM POWER DEVICES considers the structure, control and performance of series compensating DVR, the shunt DSTATCOM and the shunt with series UPQC for power quality improvement in electricity distribution.
Also addressed are other power electronic devices for improving power quality in Solid State Transfer Switches and Fault Current Limiters. Applications for these technologies as they relate to com- pensating busses supplied by a weak line and for distributed gener- ation connections in rural networks, are included. In depth treat- ment of inverters to achieve voltage support, voltage balancing, harmonic suppression and transient suppression in realistic net- work environments are also covered. New material on the poten- tial for shunt and series compensation which emphasizes the importance of control design has been introduced.
POWER QUALITY ENHANCEMENT USING CUSTOM POWER DEVICES is appropriate for distribution engineers, graduate engi- neers and designers working in the area of power electronic appli- cations for power systems. Sections of the book on power quality issues and generation connection make for a timely reference for undergraduates studying distribution engineering.
