To Design and Simulate of shunt active power filter for a distribution system for harmonic compensation

At the end of this experiment students are able to

LO1: Understand the basic principles and functions of Shunt Active Power Filters (SAPFs) in harmonic mitigation.

LO2: Identify sources of harmonics in a distribution system and their impact on power quality.

LO3: Simulate a SAPF in MATLAB/Simulink for harmonic compensation in a distribution network.

LO4: Analyze the performance of SAPF in reducing Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) and enhancing system power quality.

MATLAB Software: Simscape (power system toolbox)

Theory should include following point

a) Basic Theory about active power filter

b) Instantaneous pq theory by Akagi. (4.1 and 4.2 from following paper)
