Parameter Design and Application Research of Shunt Hybrid Active Power Filter

According to the requirement of harmonic elimination and reactive power compensation, the paper presents a parameter design method of a novel high capacity shunt hybrid active power filter. The method focuses on the minimum of the cost and the optimization of harmonic elimination. Some application notices are also given here. A high capacity shunt hybrid active power filter designed by this method has been applied in a smelt factory. The detecting result shows the filter system meets the requirement of the design and the harmonic suppression effect is obvious. For China has few experience of HAPF applications till now, the method given here can help to design a filter system for High capacity applications.
