Abstract :
An open-loop control strategy is presented for optimal compensation of arbitrary loads by means of thyristor-controlled reactors. Real-time implementation of this technique on a microprocessor-based working prototype is also described. Simulation and experimental results show that, using the proposed scheme, abrupt load changes are always compensated within the next cycle
