Abstract :
This paper deals with the design and analysis of dynamic voltage restorers (DVR). The primary task of the devices is to keep the voltage level sufficiently high during voltage dips. The DVRs using super-capacitors (DVR-CA) or super conductive coils (DVR-IN) as storage devices are considered. Possibilities for using of DVRs as active filters and for the three-phase voltage balance improvement are investigated. Proposed topologies and driving algorithms of the DVR are verified by simulations in an advanced software package, namely PSCAD/EMTDC.
