Power Electronics active filter to control harmonics or total harmonic distortion for power quality control in electric power systems

The objective of this project is to use Power Electronics active filter to control harmonics or total harmonic distortion for power quality control in electric power systems. Consider the LC filter shown in Fig. 1(b) used to reduce the ripple content of the output voltage for the single-phase full-wave rectifier shown in Fig. 1(a). The load resistance R = 20 Ω, load inductance is L = 5mH, and source frequency is 60 Hz. The single-phase source is a 120 V rms voltage. 1. (a) Design 1: (i) Determine the ripple factor of the output voltage of Fig. 1(a) (ii) Determine the ripple factor of input current iS of Fig. 1(a) (iii) Determine peak-to-peak ripple in the input current iS of Fig. (a). (iv) Determine total harmonic distortion in the input current iS of Fig. (a). (v) Simulate the circuit of Fig. 1(a) in SPICE to verify 1(a)(i)-(iv). (vi) Use SPICE to obtain the spectrum of iS. (b) Design 2: (i) Determine the values of Le and Ce required if the ripple factor of the output voltage is 10%. (ii) Determine the value for the peak-to-peak ripple in the input current iS using the Le and Ce values from 1(a)(i). (iii) Determine the total harmonic distortion of iS.
