POWER QUALITY ENHANCEMENT OF UPQC BY EMPLOYING FUEL CELL UNIT FOR A THREE PHASE SYSTEM

Abstract

This research work depicts the addition of Unified Power Quality Conditioner (UPQC) with the Fuel cell system for enhancing the power quality at the main side. This work reports the UPQC principles and various power quality issues in a distribution system. This distinguished method presents a UPQC for remunerating power quality conditions for three phase system that incorporate of a DC/DC converter contribute by a fuel cell at the DC link. The series-shunt controller is engaged for managing the UPQC under linear, non-linear load conditions is also monitored. The functioning of the presented method is simulated in MATLAB interface.
