Abstract: PQ phenomenon has gain an overwhelming attention in recent years for extensive use of complicated industrial processes. In the modern world, the usage of intelligent algorithms to enhance power quality is increasing gradually as the present day utility system as a linear model is unsatisfactory and ineffective. This paper emphasis on comparative analysis of PSODE with traditional PSO and DE for the harmonic reduction in source current with optimal tuning of proportional integral (PI) controller gain values. The SAPF is dominant among the power quality conditioners used to limit the current variations that are induced in the utility system because of nonlinear loads. The reference current generation is based on PQ theory. The instantaneous switching of voltage source inverter (VSI) is taken care by hysteresis band current controller (HBCC). The pro-effective simulations are implemented in the MATLAB/SIMULINK environment, which even supports the efficacy of the present day power system.
Keywords: PQ theory, power quality (PQ), particle swarm optimization with differential perturbed velocity (PSODE), shunt active power filter (SAPF) and THD
