The interactions between shunt active power filter (APF) and capacitance load tend to result in stability problems and resonance. The conventional model of a shunt APF is not precise enough to reflect this phenomenon. To address it, this paper proposes a modified shunt APF system model to accurately reflect various stability problems. This paper also studies the mechanism of positive feedback resonance brought by capacitance load and proposes a modified hybrid controller to improve the stable margin of the system, making the shunt APF work stably under different working conditions where there are μF capacitors on the demand side. The correctness and validity of the proposed strategy are verified by simulation analysis and prototype experiments.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
