Phase Measurement Units based FACT’s Devices for the Improvement of Power Systems Networks Controllability

Abstract

This paper describes the importance of FACTS devices; it presents the outcome of the study of its reflectance on the performance of power system networks. It seeks to increase and guarantee the fact and accuracy of response systems under disturbance conditions when the phase measurement units are introduced as Real-Time Measurement (RTM) stations. This paper also describes the importance of FACTS devices. The combination of FACTS devices and PMUs is presented to increase the controllability performance of power systems. This paper demonstrates how PMUs measure voltage, current and their angles. It provides, through a communication link, a Phase Angle Data Concentrator (PDC) to make an appropriate decision to correct the power system state using the FACTS device (TCSC). We utilized the Graph-Theoretic Algorithm to optimize the number and location of PMUs. The technique proposed was tested on the Iraqi National Super Grid’s 24bus network, Diyala City’s regional 10bus network and the 14bus IEEE standard test system. The MATLAB/PSAT package was utilized for the simulation of results. It is evident that our proposed algorithm and technique achieved the purpose of this paper as confirmed by the level of accuracy of the results obtained from most of the cases tested.

Enhancement the stability of power system using optimal location of FACTS devices

“…Figure 1 suggests the single line format of a transmission line that is compensated included SVC at bus j, the model for strength injection SVC can be illustrated as in Figure 2. In this case study, the SVC is dealt with a variable capacitance, the place is the complicated injected cutting-edge of SVC at node j [17][18]. It can be achieved as follows: The SVC can be actes as a capacitive behavior or as inductive mode for absorbing or to generate the reactive power (VAr).…”

An optimal allocation of UPFC and transient stability improvement of an electrical power system: IEEE-30 buses

“…The flexible AC transmission systems (FACTS) as a new generation of power electronics technology had provided a unique viewpoint to raise the bearing size, better control of the grid, and saving costs and energy. FACTS with the permanent application in the market change into the optimized power grid and optimal power flow, concertedly [1], [2]. The unified power flow controllers (UPFC) could command an active power as well as compensate a reactive power component.…”
