Title: Research and analysis of static synchronous compensator principle and performance
Abstract: At present,the power system is lack of var compensation,furthermore most compensation methods for the compensation devices are not good enough to meet the requirement of compensation for pow-er system.The static synchronous compensator(STATCOM)is a reactive power compensation with the prefer-able performance in the power system up to now,which is a critical technique for the flexible alternative cur-rent transmission system(FACTS).STATCOM is a voltage source inverter connected to the system by trans-former or inductance,dynamic reactive power compensation is achieved by regulating phase and amplitude of the voltage or the current injected into power system.The present status and future development trend of STATCOM at home and abroad are introduced.The fundamental principle of compensation and the ability of STATCOM to support voltage is more competent than SVC are summarized in detail.That cascade multilevel inverter is not only for fewer devices,but also superior in performance is pointed out.With the increasing de-mands on the dynamic voltage quality,STATCOM will be used extensively in the power system.
