Abstract

This paper presents a theory of instantaneous nonactive power/current. This generalized theory is independent of the number of phases, whether the load is periodic or nonperiodic, and whether the system voltages are balanced or unbalanced. By choosing appropriate parameters such as the averaging interval T c and the reference voltage v p, the theory has different forms for each specific system application. This theory is consistent with other more traditional concepts. The theory is implemented in a parallel nonactive power compensation system, and several different cases, such as harmonics load, rectifier load, single-phase pulse load, and non-periodic load, are simulated in MATLAB. Unity power factor or pure sinusoidal source current from the utility can be achieved according to different compensation requirements. Furthermore, the dynamic response and its impact on the compensator's energy storage requirement are also presented.
