Abstract

Most facilities employ a variety of devices such as multiple switch mode power supplies, motors, fans, and other nonlinear loads. One of the adverse effects of multiple nonlinear loads is harmonic distortion. Harmonic currents in particular are receiving more attention as a critical power quality concern. In this paper, reactance one-port compensator is designed for current harmonic mitigation. The problem is formulated as a nonlinear programming (NLP) problem and the optimal parameters of the filter are determined using particle swarm optimization
