FUZZY ALGORITHM TO CONTROL REACTIVE POWER FLOW IN ELECTRIC NETWORK WITH NONLINEAR LOADS by H. B. Guliyev

“…The mentioned results demonstrate that when harmonic components of voltages exceed normative magnitudes, the use of the proposed algorithm eliminates additional loading on the capacitor banks with higher harmonic currents whereas the control procedure acquires quality, the number of commutations is being reduced, the capacitor battery functions longer and the probability of its malfunction decreases.…”
