The Newcastle University research output collection, currently available on ePrints, will shortly be moving to a new open repository platform, Figshare. To prepare for the data migration we have paused adding new content to ePrints, and will resume once the new repository is launched. During this time you will continue to have access to ePrints (but no new content will appear). We will share updates here when available.

Abstract

This paper studies the utilization of PWM voltage source converters in Distribution Static Synchronous Compensator (D-STATCOM) for voltage sag mitigation. Three different voltage source converter topologies based D-STATCOM; namely the two level, three level neutral point clamped and the three level flying capacitor are investigated and compared. The comparison is drawn based on harmonic profile, response time and the steady state time of the point of common coupling voltage for different VSCs based D-STATCOM. The investigation is carried out using MATLAB-SIMULINK Power System Blockset for different operating points and a comparison between the different topologies is provided.
