A Comparative Analysis Between UPFC and

This document compares the Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC) and Distributed Power Flow Controller (DPFC) for mitigating power quality issues in a grid-connected photovoltaic system. It discusses how reactive elements can address oscillations, harmonics, sags and swells but cause resonance issues. FACTS devices like the UPFC and DPFC are presented as alternatives that condition power without quality problems. The working principles of the UPFC and DPFC are described, and their performance is analyzed and compared through MATLAB/SIMULINK modeling of a solar PV generation system integrating these devices.

A Comparative Analysis between UPFC and

DPFC in a Grid Connected Photovoltaic system

Abstract

In this paper a comparative analysis between Unifi Distributed ed Power Flow Controller (UPFC)
and Power Flow Controller (DPFC) in a grid integrated photovoltaic system is performed. A grid
connected solar generation system with boost converter and voltage source inverter (VSI) is
taken as the main model. Due to power quality issues like power oscillations, harmonic
distortions, voltage sags and swells, the grid side system has to be perfectly monitored and
controlled. One way to mitigate these power quality problems is by using reactive elements like
shunt/series reactor and shunt/series capacitor. The disadvantage is sub on using these
reactive elements synchronous resonance phenomenon. Thanks to FACTS technology, which
emerged out as power conditioning units and helps to feed power with required standards and
free from power quality issues. Among them, the contemporary FACTS devices are Controller
Distributed Power Flow(DPFC) and Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC) . Though the aims of
both the devices are same but their working principles are different. In this paper the effect of
adding a DPFC and UPFC to a solar PV generation system is analyzed. A detailed working
principle and operation of both the devices were presented. At last, MATLAB/SIMULINK
environment is used to compare the performances of above mentioned devices.
