The conventional graphical representation of the instantaneous compensation power flow for single-phase active power filters(APFs) simply represents the active power flow and the reactive power flow which flowing between the power source and the active filter / the load. But, this method does not provide the information about the rectification mode and the compensation mode of APFs, especially, the loss for each mode was not considered at all. This is very important to understand the compensation operation characteristics of APFs. Therefore, this paper proposes the graphical representation of the instantaneous compensation power flow for single-phase APFs considering the instantaneous rectification mode and the instantaneous inversion mode. Three cases are verified in this paper - without compensation, with compensation of the active power 'p' and the fundamental reactive power 'q', and with compensation of only the distorted power 'h'. To ensure the validity of the proposed approach, PSIM simulation is achieved. As a result, we could confirm that the proposed approach was easy to explain the instantaneous compensation power flow considering the instantaneous rectification mode and the instantaneous inversion mode of APFs, also, Total Harmonic Distortion(THD)/Power Factor (P.F) and Fast Fourier Transform(FFT) analysis were compared for each case.

This paper analyzes instantaneous power compensation theory through comparing p-q theory and cross-vector theory which were proposed by Akagi and Nabae respectively in three-phase four-wire systems. The two compensation theories are identical when there is no zero-sequence voltage component in three-phase three-wire systems, However, when the zero-sequence voltage and/or current components exist in three-phase four-wire systems, the two compensation theories we different in definition on instantaneous real power and instantaneous imaginary power. Based on the analysis, this paper presents instantaneous power compensation method that can eliminate neutral current completely without using energy storage element when the zero-sequence current and voltage components exist in three-phase four-wire systems.

This paper proposed the p-q-r coordinate system where the instantaneous active power p, and the two instantaneous reactive powers $q_{q}$, $q_{r}$ were defined. The three power components are linearly independent, so the compensation for the two instantaneous reactive powers leads to control the two components of the current space vector. With the theory, the neutral current of a three-phase four-wire system can be eliminated by only compensating the instantaneous reactive power using no energy storage element.

DSTATCOM(distribution static compensator) is one of the custom power devices, and protects a distribution line from unbalanced and harmonic current caused by non-linear and unbalanced loads. Researches about DSTATCOM are mainly divided two parts, one is the calculation of compensation current and the other part is the current control. Conventional researches use a LPF(low pass filter) to eliminate ripple component at the calculation of compensation current. But this method has a problem that LPF's characteristics restrict the compensation performance of instantaneous active and reactive power. This paper proposes a calculation of compensation current using state observer that can be a counterproposal of conventional methods using LPF. Improved performance of instantaneous active and reactive power compensation was shown by experiments.

In this paper, conventional reactive power compensation is defined and instantaneous real control concept for shunt converters is proposed. This equipment incorporates the compensation function of harmonics at the distribution line by nonlinear load. These methodologies are applied to IEEE 13 distribution system with the modeling of nonlinear load using EMTEDC/PSCAD package. Simulation with EMTDC results presented to confirm that the new approach has better performance than those obtained by controllers based on traditional concepts of reactive power compensation.

This paper deals with the design and simulation of the hybrid power filter to compensate reactive power and harmonic components of nonlinear load. Control target is a 3-phase diode full bridge rectifier with L-R-C nonlinear load, this load is assumed adjustable speed driver(ASD). The hybrid filter consists of a shunt active filter, shunt passive filters and series inductors. Control algorithm is based on instantaneous power compensation theory proposed by H.Akagi and etc. The result from simulation shows the hybrid filter is superior than other filters on the point of compensation performance and low cost. The PSCAD/EMTDC 3.0 is used as simulation tools.

This paper presents a PWM buck AC-AC converter with instantaneous compensation for input voltage sag and surge. The presented converter use commercial IGBT modules and its output voltage is regulated so as to remain constant AC output voltage. The feedforward control technique is also proposed to establish instantaneous duty level change whereby stable output voltage will be retained. This paper show the characteristics and control algorithm of the converter through various PSPICE simulations.

It could make the smoothing capacitor-less inverter for air-blower motor by using the instantaneous compensation PWM controller. This inverter system has small volume and value compare with the conventional VVVF control inverter.
