Performance Evaluation of PV-SOFC Grid Integrated 3P3W System by UPQC with Sinusoidal Current Control Strategy at Constant Irradiance

The primary objective of the power sector is to generate power to meet the power demand as per the necessity at the convenient locations, then transmitting and distributing to distinct load centers commemorating the quality and fidelity of the supply with reasonable tariff. This paper fixates over the alleviation of various power quality (PQ) issues in a PV-SOFC integrated grid system by the realization of sinusoidal current control strategy (SCCS) based simulation analysis of Unified Power Quality Conditioner (UPQC) using MATLAB R2016a incorporating different loads (linear and non-linear). A time domain control technique, SCCS endorsed on transitory PQtheory has been adopted for performance evaluation of the UPQC in PV-SOFC integrated grid system. The UPQC so carried out is to lessen the harmonic factor and further so as to offset the complex power unsettled to their unambiguous and reckless exercises. The recommended approach confirms drawing of sinusoidal quantities from the source.
