Ant Colony Algorithm (ACO) Applied for Tuning PI of Shunt Active Power Filter (SAPF)

Abstract

In the present-day decade, the world has regarded an expansion in the use of non-linear loads. These a lot draw harmonic non- sinusoidal currents and voltages in the connection factor with the utility and distribute them with the useful resource of the overall performance of it. The propagation of these currents and voltages into the grids have an effect on the electricity constructions in addition to the one of various client equipment. As a result, the electrical strength notable has come to be critical trouble for each client and distributor of electrical power. Active electrical electricity filters have been proposed as environment splendid gear for electrical power pinnacle notch enchantment and reactive electrical strength compensation. Active Power Filters (APFs) have Flipped out to be a possible wish in mitigating the harmonics and reactive electrical electricity compensation in single-phase and three-phase AC electrical energy networks with Non-Linear Loads (NLLs). Conventionally, this paper applied Ant Colony Algorithm (ACO) for tuning PI and reduce Total Harmonic Distortion (THD). The result show reduces THD at 2.33%.
