Power Quality and Mitigation
Question:
A low voltage distribution network is facing voltage variation problem due to integration of renewable energy resources. It is required to improve operation and control of network by designing and implementing a distribution static synchronous compensator (D-STATCOM) for power quality improvement in asynchronous machine-based distributed generation as the asynchronous generator has poor voltage regulation specially, during peak load conditions.
You are required to design and develop a MATLAB Simulink model of Low voltage network for three-phase, 3-wire loads. The single line diagram of the network, D-STATCOM control design and required parameters are provided in Fig 1, Fig 2 and Table 1 respectively. Main system consists of grid, asynchronous machine with balanced /unbalanced load and D-STATCOM for voltage regulation purpose. A conversion distribution system of 25 kV; 1000 MVA, 50 Hz needs to operate along with an asynchronous generator and DSTATCOM.

Task 1:
Check the load balancing aspect of STATCOM based voltage regulator system at 3-phase 3-wire balanced/unbalance resistive load condition. Three, single-phase load each of 2.5 kW is applied between each phase and neutral, and observe the magnitude of terminal voltage (vt) and DC link voltage (vdc).
Task 2:
Now replace the load with 3-phase 3-wire balanced/unbalance reactive load (at lagging 0.8 power factor) and check performance of network.
