A Modular Isolated Topology for Instantaneous Reactive Power Compensation

This paper presents a novel topology for instantaneous reactive power compensation. The topology is derived from the Dynamic-Current or Dyna-C, which is a patented power converter capable of transferring energy for two or multiterminal dc, single- and/or multiphase ac systems. The proposed topology, named dynamic VAr compensator (DVC), has a current source power conversion stage and can provide in...
