Voltage Regulation in Grid Connected Power System Using 24 Pulse STATCOM

The paper deals with compensation of frequently time-variable loads by means of STATCOM controllers. An arc furnace is considered as a heavily distributing load. The STATCOM system was used to ensure good power quality at the point of common coupling. For analysis of the system performance, the MATLAB Simulink was applied. Simulation models of the load and 24-pulse STATCOM controller is discussed in the paper. A MATLAB Simulink model of a measurement block is also proposed for power quality assessment. Some results of simulation are presented, which show the compensation effectiveness.
