| Summary: | The unified power quality conditioner (UPQC), based on power angle control (PAC), addresses the power distribution issue and enhances equipment utilization between two active power filters (APF) of UPQC by employing conventional linear control algorithms that have complex control structures and exhibit challenges in adjusting controller parameters and control delays. This study proposes a UPQC predictive direct control strategy based on power angle control (PDCS-PAC). We combine the direct control strategy with the finite control set model predictive control (FCS-MPC) to establish the UPQC finite set model predictive direct control system model in the dq coordinate system. This approach simplifies the controller structure and alleviates the control algorithm’s complexity. Based on a detailed analysis of the PAC mechanism, an instantaneous power angle determination method is proposed based on the reactive power equalization technique, and a predictive direct control strategy given the current generation mechanism is constructed for the series and shunt sides of the UPQC, considering the active power balance of the UPQC system and the principle of constant load fundamental voltage amplitude. Finally, we construct a simulation platform and a laboratory prototype to validate the feasibility and efficacy of the proposed control strategy. |
