| 總結: | The increased number of nonlinear loads in the distribution system has caused a significant impact on its power quality in the form of higher harmonic distortion. The fast charging station (FCS) is an example of a powerful nonlinear load that is currently being widely promoted with the aim of supporting the continuous usage of electric vehicles (EV). The most common and cheapest method to minimize harmonic impact is through the use of a passive filter. This paper presents an optimal sizing and placement of a passive filter design based on the numbers of FCS installed in the distribution system. The MATLAB/m-file platform is used to model the power system harmonic flow, passive filter, and FCS. The control strategy used to minimize the total harmonic distortion (THD) due to the large number of FCS is presented based on the selection of optimal location and the size of passive filters that will provide minimum THD and apparent power losses to the overall distribution system. A Modified Lightning Search Algorithm (MLSA) technique is applied with the aim of identifying the optimal solution. The Pareto-Fuzzy technique is used to obtain a better solution among nondominated solutions. From the result, the optimal placements and sizes of passive filter will be able to reduce the maximum THD and also the total losses in the distribution system, which is equipped with 17 FCS units. This study is useful as a guide for grid owners to control the impact of large-scale FCS deployment in the distribution system. |
