Comparative study of semiconductorpower losses between CSI-based STATCOMand VSI-based STATCOM, both used forunbalance compensation
we present a detailed procedure to determine the semiconductor losses for both structures of a shunt STATCOM (Static Compensator)
STATCOM based on Current Source Inverter (CSI) and STATCOM based on Voltage Source Inverter (VSI)
both used for voltage unbalance compensation. As a first step
we study the VSI-based STATCOM and the CSI-based STATCOM used in high speed railway substations. Then we analyze the design and the sizing of the unbalance compensator in order to obtain an unbalance factor that does not exceed the limits imposed by the standards or by the energy provider. Following that
we compare the performances obtained with both structures VSI-STATCOM and CSI-STATCOM
after calculating the semiconductor power losses in the STATCOM converters. Finally
we validate our approach by simulation over real data of unbalance compensation caused by the new high-speed railway in Morocco. We use the tools MATLAB / Simulink/Simpowersys for performing our simulations.
Abstract
In this paper
we present a detailed procedure to determine the semiconductor losses for both structures of a shunt STATCOM (Static Compensator)
STATCOM based on Current Source Inverter (CSI) and STATCOM based on Voltage Source Inverter (VSI)
both used for voltage unbalance compensation. As a first step
we study the VSI-based STATCOM and the CSI-based STATCOM used in high speed railway substations. Then we analyze the design and the sizing of the unbalance compensator in order to obtain an unbalance factor that does not exceed the limits imposed by the standards or by the energy provider. Following that
we compare the performances obtained with both structures VSI-STATCOM and CSI-STATCOM
after calculating the semiconductor power losses in the STATCOM converters. Finally
we validate our approach by simulation over real data of unbalance compensation caused by the new high-speed railway in Morocco. We use the tools MATLAB / Simulink/Simpowersys for performing our simulations.
