ABSTRACT
In this paper, the concept of a” REGENRATIVE LOAD”, is proposed. In this proposal a
converter system is designed to make a regenerative load set, that can emulate various active and
reactive power load and their various combinations, and also capable of regenerating the consumed
power by the load back to the grid. The vector control approach is used for independent control of
active and reactive power. The proposed scheme is simulated in MATLAB simulink and gives
satisfactory result.
I. INTRODUCTION
Testing of machine is limited by the size of load and associated cost of energy. Since it is not
feasible or economical to test machine on full load, different methodologies are developed to
evaluate the performance characteristics of machine. These test methods such as no load test, short
circuit test, back to back test, Z.P.F test etc gives approximate result. The converter proposed in this
paper is capable of loading a machine up to the ratings of the converter. The power consumed by the
converter is feedback to the grid as a result the net power consumed and hence energy cost is very
low. Such a loading arrangement may find wide spread application in laboratories where there is
diversified requirement of load.

The variable regenerative load proposed here consists of a rectifier and an inverter. The
rectifier acts as the load to the machine and the power consumed by the load is controlled by
controlling Iq (Quadrature axis current) signal. The inverter acts as the regenerating part, and
regenerates the consumed power back to the source/grid. The concept of this loading arrangement is
derived from the concept of U.P.F.C (Unified Power Flow Controller) which feed reactive power to
the grid. UPFC is primarily used for independent control of real and reactive power in transmission
lines for a flexible, reliable and economic operation and loading of power system [1]. The
independent control of active and reactive power is done using the vector control approach in dq
reference frame [2]. To convert a 3 phase quantity to synchronously rotating d-q reference frame,
and vice versa, Park’s transform and Inverse Park’s transform is used [3]. For converting the 3 phase
parameters in dq frame a unit vector (sinθ, cosθ) is generated. The unit vector rotates at the
synchronous speed along with the dq reference frame. Various methods are there to generate unit
vector, the one which is used in the paper is using LPF (Low pass filter) [2] and PLL (Phase Locked
Loop) [4]. Both current and voltage are converted into dq reference frame and d-axis and q-axis
current controls the reactive and active power respectively.
The paper is articulated as follows: Section (II) deals with the theory of the proposed idea.
Section (III) gives the introduction to synchronously rotating frame. Section (IV) deals with unit
vector generation. Design of controller is discussed in Section (V). Section (VI) deals with converter
schematic and feed forward terms. Section (VII) shows current and voltage controller design
procedure. Simulation results and analysis is given in Section (VIII). Conclusion and Index is given
in Section (IX) and Section (X) respectively.

From these equations it is clear that, for power flow between two sources, there must be a
voltage difference or a phase angle difference between them. It is well known that the active power
flows from the leading voltage to the lagging voltage and the reactive power flows from the higher
voltage to the lower voltage. Therefore, both active power and reactive power can be controlled by
controlling the phase and magnitude of the converter voltage fundamental component with respect to
the grid voltage. But phase angle and voltage is present in both equation of active and reactive
power, thus there exist a coupling between them, thus to control active and reactive power
independently, the above equation cannot be followed since varying voltage or phase angle will vary
both active and reactive power. In order to control active and reactive power independently, vector
control approach has been taken into account.
Vector control is a popular method for speed control of three-phase induction motors, by
converting the 3 phase parameters to dq reference frame. The basic idea of vector control scheme is
to control the flux producing component (direct axis current) and the torque-producing component
(quadrature axis current) in a decoupled manner. Keeping analogy with the above convention, in this
paper, the current component is divided into its direct axis and quadrature axis component. The
control of quadrature axis current will control the active power and control of direct axis component
will control the reactive power. The equations of active and reactive power using direct and
quadrature axis components are follow [2]:

III. SYNCHRONOUS ROTATING FRAME (D-Q AXIS)
The DQ transformation is a transformation of coordinates from the three-phase stationary
coordinate system to the dq rotating coordinate system.
Let a three phase voltage is represented by these following equations:
2 c o sa sV V tω= (6)
2 cos( 120 )o
b sV V tω= − (7)
2 cos( 240 )o
c sV V tω= − (8)
The transformation from three phases to dq is made in two steps [3]:
1). A transformation from the three-phase stationary coordinate system to the two-phase, so-called
ab/αβ, stationary coordinate system:

2 c o s

2) A transformation from the ab/αβ stationary coordinate system to the dq rotating coordinate
system:

IV. UNIT VECTOR GENERATION
In order to transform any vector from stationary reference frame into d–q reference frame, the
quantities sin (θ) and cos(θ), which are the components of a revolving unit vector are required. These
quantities should have the same frequency as that of the system voltage.
A. Using LPF Filter
The voltage vector Vs is at an angle ωt with respect to the a-axis. A low-pass filter, whose
corner frequency equals the mains frequency, delays vsa and vsb by 45◦
, two such filters in cascade
delay vsa and vsb by 90◦
. Such filtering and normalization yields cosθ and sinθ, where θ is the angle
between a-axis and d-axis required for the transformation.

B. Using PLL
PLL techniques cause one signal to track another one. It keeps an output signal synchronized
with a reference input signal in frequency and phase. In three phase grid connected system, PLL can
be implemented using the d-q transformation and with a proper design of loop filter.
Fig.5 shows the block diagram of three phase PLL, where Vabc is the sensed grid voltage which
is transformed in to DC components using coordinate transformation abc-dq and the PLL gets locked
by setting Vd* to zero. The loop filter PI is a low pass filter. It is used to suppress high frequency
component and provide DC controlled signal to voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) which acts as an
integrator. The output of the PI controller is the grid frequency that is integrated to obtain phase
angle of the converter θ. When the difference between grid phase angle and converter phase angle is
reduced to zero PLL becomes active which results in synchronously rotating voltages Vd = 0 and Vq
gives magnitude of grid voltage.

Simulation results using LPF to obtain cosθ and sinθ:
Fig6: Generation of cosθ and sinθ, using PLL.
ANALYSIS
From Fig4 and Fig6, it is clear that generation of unit vector using PLL gives a much better
response compare to LPF filter, as LPF filter response contains transients from 0 to 0.01 sec
simulation time. In this paper, we have used PLL to generate cosθ and sinθ.
V. DESIGN OF CONTROLLER
The overall block diagram of a vector controlled converter is shown in figure7. The grid
voltages and the line currents are transformed into d–q reference frame, and are used as feedback
variables for the controller as shown in the figure7. The controllers are designed in d–q reference
frame.
Fig7: Block diagram of a vector controlled front-end converter.
As shown in figure 8, the controller has an outer voltage loop to control Vdc. The voltage
controller sets the reference to the inner q-axis current controller. The q-axis current loop controls the
flow of real power P. There is an independent loop for the control of isd, which controls reactive
power as per equations (4) and (5).

VII. CURRENT AND VOLTAGE CONTROLLER DESIGN
The converter is modeled using its gain G and the delay time Td. The delay Td is equal to half
the time period of the carrier signal. The Bode Plot of the linear transfer function of the model is
plotted and the gain of the PI controller is calculated depending upon the desired gain and phase
margin [6]. The gain margin, phase margin and gains of PI controller of the controlled system are:
Gain Margin: infinite db
Phase Margin: 72.2o
Proportional Gain: 10
Integral Gain: 2

B. The power flow equation in d-q reference frame I given by equations (4) and (5), thus, with
Vq = 450V, Id = 2A and Iq = 6A, calculated active power P = 1800 watt, and reactive power Q = 600
watt. The following graph shows that the calculated and measured values are almost equal:
Fig13: Active and reactive power flowing from machine to load, controlled using vector control.
C. The inverter regenerates the power consumed by the load and feedback it to the grid. Keeping
id=0, (i.e. the reactive power consumed by the load is fully delivered by the inverter without loading
the grid), and controlling iq with Vdc=600V, we observe that some of the active power is consumed,
by the power electronic devices but the inverter can feedback almost equal active power to the grid,
and the reactive power is zero, as per given reference. The negative value of the power shows that, it
is being feedback.
