Simulation of Dynamic Reactive Power Compensation Device Based on Variable Reactance Converter

Abstract

In the power system, the reactive power causes low power factor and power loss. The reactive power compensation device can ensure normal and stable operation of the power system. The traditional reactive power compensation device is difficult to meet the needs of high power factor and low power loss. Therefore, a dynamic reactive power compensation device has been presented by authors to achieve high power factor and low power loss. Based on the previous research results, the dynamic reactive power compensation device based on variable reactance converter is simulated. The following works have been done in the study: topology of dynamic reactive power compensation device, simulation model of dynamic reactive power compensation device, and simulation. The simulation results show that the dynamic reactive power compensation device based on variable reactance converter improves the power factor of power system and saves energy. The research of this paper has laid a theoretical foundation for the dynamic reactive power compensation device in practical applications.
