Abstract

This report demonstrates the method of improving the power quality using a shunt active power filter with PEMFC. In this proposed topic comprises shunt active power filter with Proton Exchange Membrane fuel cell, hysteresis current control loop, Synchronous reference frame, DC link capacitor. The trading signal generation for the filter is from hysteresis current controller techniques. With all these elements shunts active power filter reduce the total harmonic distortion. This report introduces the simulation and analysis of the using three phase three wire system active filters to compensate harmonics. The proposed shunt active filter model uses balanced non-linear load. This paper successfully lowers the THD within IEEE and IEC norms and satisfactorily works to compensate current harmonics.
