This paper proposes a magnetically integrated transformer-type controllable reactor (MI-TCR) for reactive power compensation in power systems with high renewable penetration. Using genetic algorithm-based design optimization and multi-physics FEM, the MI-TCR achieves ±15 MVAR regulation, <80 ms response, <2.3% harmonic distortion, and 18.7% lower core losses than conventional designs, validated on a 10 kVA prototype within 4.2% error.

📄 Abstract(原文)
<title>Abstract</title> <p>These increases in the application of renewable energy sources and nonlinear loads to the modern power systems have exacerbated the need to have rapid, dependable, and continuously variable reactive power compensation devices. Traditional solutions, including thyristor-controlled reactors and static VAR compensators, are plagued by harmonic distortion, multi-bulky multi-device topologies, and slow transient response. The current paper introduces the design optimization and detailed electromagnetic performance analysis of a magnetically integrated transformer-type controllable reactor (MI-TCR), which combines both voltage transformation and reactive power regulation by a smooth voltage with a single compact electromagnetic system. The proposed MI-TCR takes advantage of the saturation properties of a specially designed multi-limb iron core, whereby a DC-bias winding is used to adjust the operating point of the core to continuously adjust the effective AC inductance between rated and near-zero values. A multi-physics finite element model (FEM) system that is a combination of electromagnetic, thermal, and structural systems is developed to optimize the core geometry, winding arrangement, and air-gap allocation. A parametric search guided by a genetic algorithm is used to find parametric designs that are Pareto-optimal and reduce core losses, enhance reactive power regulation range, and minimize vibration noise. The results of the simulation show that the optimized MI-TCR would provide a reactive power regulation of +15 MVAR to -15 MVAR with a response time of less than 80 ms, harmonic distortion of less than 2.3 percent, and core losses of 18.7 percent less than those of conventional magnetically controlled reactor designs. The predictions in the FEA are supported by experimental validation on a 10 kVA laboratory prototype within a 4.2% error margin. The suggested design methodology provides a scalable route to the next generation of integrated electromagnetic devices to stabilize the distribution network voltage and reactive power in distribution networks.</p>
