Nmely supply symmetry my use generting urrent hrmonis of nonhrteristi orders suh s third order hrmoni [3]-[4]. There is lso mehnism in systems with indution motors tht mgnify the voltge symmetry. onsidering these problems in three-phse system, it is neessry to blne the lod so tht tive powers in three phses re equl. Presently, feeder swithing through mnul or utomti ontrol to redue the unblne of the lod is used mong industry. Sine this is performed in disrete mnner, it nnot dynmilly nd effetively blne the system lod. n priniple, the urrent of n unblned lod n be divided into zero, positive, nd negtive-sequene omponents. The zero-sequene urrent only influenes the viinity of the lod nd n be bloked by delt-wye grounded trnsformer. f devie ould be found to orret the negtive-sequene urrent in onjuntion with the zero-sequene urrent bloking in the distribution system, one ould obtin blned system, s viewed from the trnsmission level. n this pper, the bk ground of lod blning with S nd different onfigurtion of S is Reviewed, n prt. n prt, theory of S ompenstion is summrized. n prt, ompenstion suseptne is ome nd the formultion is given. n prt, se study is presented nd simultion re done. n prt, the results of simultion re presented.. AK GROUNG Thyristor-ontrolled suseptne TS iruits, or ommonly lled stti vr ompenstors Ss, hve been undergoing development sine the 97's [5]-[6]. The very first bsi struture developed ws just like the one presented in the ove pper, nmely, TS nd pitor in prllel [7]. However, the pplitions of suh TS's hve been limited to minly blned systems. t hs been well known tht thyristor swithed indutor is gret soure of urrent hrmonis, in prtiulr, the third hrmoni. A single-phse TS with bsi struture my hve urrent hrmoni distortion HD of the order of 5% t some firing ngles [7]. When three of suh TS's re onneted in delt onfigurtion, with symmetril ontrolling of firing ngles, this ompenstor is very effetive for ompensting the retive power of the lod without the injetion of third
NTERNATONA JOURNA OF ENERG, ssue 3, ol., 7 hrmoni urrent to the system. However, it my not be dequte for use in n unblned system, sine it requires, most likely, n symmetri ontrolling of firing ngles. When this ours, the third hrmoni urrents generted by three TS brnhes re in phse, but different in their mgnitudes, nd therefore, tremendous mount of HD is introdued minly, the third hrmoni into the system. There is nother potentil problem worth mentioning when using TS with suh struture, nmely, resonne between the shunt pitor nd the system indutne my our. All of these ove-mentioned drwbks redue the ppliility of suh TS. To overome the resonnt problem between the shunt pitor nd the system indutne, series indutor n be inserted. To eliminte the third hrmoni urrent generted by TS, hrmoni filter tuned to the third hrmoni frequeny n be employed. A number of TS's with vrious strutures, s shown in Fig., hve been developed, studied, nd presented [6],[8]. With the onsidertions of minimizing hrmoni injetion to the system nd voiding the resonne between the ompenstor's pitor nd system indutor with minimum inrese of iruit omplexity, it ws onluded tht TS_S_PF, hving firly simple struture, ould possibly redue the HD to the order of %. A ompenstor with three TS_S_PF's in delt onfigurtion, ould be used to blne n unblned system dynmilly nd, therefore, ws termed n "dptive blning ompenstor" A [6], [9].. THEOR OF S OMPENSATON To void the omplition of other zero-sequene-relted problems, delt-onneted S is used in the development., every brnh hs fixed pitor nd thyristor-ontrolled retor. Eqution is the equivlent suseptne or dmittne of eh brnh by ontrolling the firing dely ngles α of thyristors. A bidiretionl symmetril ontrol is normlly dopted to void even-order hrmonis. π α sin α α = πω whee is the suseptne of the fixed pitors nd is the originl indutne of the thyristor ontrolled retor. As shown in Fig., the zero-sequene urrent n be bloked by the delt-onneted trnsformer, but the negtivesequene urrent n still pss through the trnsformer nd go into the trnsmission system to deteriorte the performne of genertors or other mhines. Therefore, the purpose of this pper is to derive n lgorithm to blok the negtive-sequene omponent by djusting the suseptne of the S. Theoretilly, omplete ompenstion n be obtined nd the negtive-sequene urrent n be ompensted by n S. This ide is illustrted in + + A A [ ] + + = j where is the symmetril omponent opertor e nd the dmittne of the S is j, j nd j. Eqution n be divided into rel nd imginry prts nd will hve three vriles nd two equtions. An dditionl onstrint hs to be dded to obtin unique solution. From the prtil point of view, the following onstrint is seleted: + + K 3 = Where nd b, is suseptne of ompenstor between phses is suseptne of ompenstor between phses b nd, is suseptne of ompenstor between phses nd. f the power ftor of the lod needs to be improved t the sme time, the right side of eqution 3 n be hnged to the required vlue. For simpliity, K is set to zero in the following derivtion. ombining equtions nd 3, one n get ll suseptnes of the S from mesured phse voltges nd urrents t the primry of the trnsformer[].

OMPENSATON SUSEPTANE The digrm of the studied system is shown in Fig. 3, where substtion feeds eletri power to n unblned lod through three-phse system. t is ssumed tht both the substtion bus voltges nd trnsmission line impednes re blned. The supersripts S, T,, nd, used in this pper, represent the substtion, trnsmission line, ompenstor, nd lod, respetively. For the purpose of the S is to redue the negtive sequene urrents nd imginry prt of positive sequene urrents, hene, the usul trnsformtion mtrix [] is defined t first to relte the phse nd sequene quntities s shown in Eq. 4. = = [ T ] Where is voltge between phses nd b, Where is voltge between phses b nd, Where is voltge between phses nd, is zero sequene vlue of voltge, is positive sequene vlue of voltge, is positive sequene vlue of voltge. n Fig. 3, it is ssumed tht the lod is liner, nd then the lod urrent n be expressed s b = Applying the symmetril omponent trnsform in Eq. 4 to both side of Eq. 6, we hve = + = + 6 The negtive sequene voltge is introdued by unequl voltge drops on the trnsmission lines with unblned urrents flowing. n generl, the negtive sequene voltge is smller thn its positive sequene ounterprt.

Hene, the ompenstion suseptnes of the S n be desribed by nd s: = m = m = m = m 9 = m = m Substituting Eq. 6 into Eq. 9, the ompenstion suseptnes n be expressed in terms of symmetril omponents of the lod urrents.

Hene, only two single phse P-Q meters, with voltge-oils onneted to phse nd b nd urrent-oils onneted to phse nd s tht shown in Fig. 3, the so lled two-wttmeter onnetion method, re used to quire the four urrent vriles in Eq.. n prtil implementtion, the voltge signl in Eq. is the verge of three line to line voltges mesured by three-phse voltge trnsduer.
