The growth in the demand of electrical energy is leading to load on the Power system which increases the occurrence of frequent oscillations in the system. The reason for the oscillations is due to the lack of damping torque which is required to dominate the disturbances of Power system. By using FACT devices, such as Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC) can control power flow, reduce sub-synch...

A systematic procedure for modeling, simulation and optimally tuning the parameters of a Static Synchronous Series Compensator (SSSC) controller in a multi-machine system, for power system stability enhancement is presented in this paper. For the simulation purpose, the model of multi-machine power system with SSSC controller is developed in MATLAB/SIMULINK using Sim Power System (SPS) blockset...

Long distance AC transmission is often subject to stability problems, which limits the transmission Capability. Large interconnected power systems often suffer from weakly damped swings between synchronous generators and subsystems. This paper studies the comparative performance of SSSC and UPFC for the improvement of transient stability and damping of power swings of a multi-machine power syst...

-Wind Energy is one of the cheapest available renewable sources of energy. Now-a-days the demand for electricity increases drastically. A number of wind farms are already in operation and more are planned or under construction due to the increasing demand of the bulk amount of the electricity. It is must to identify the interactions between the Wind Turbines and the Power System. Here the Power...

Electromechanical oscillations in a power system often exhibit poor damping when the power transfer over a corridor is high relative to the transmission strength. Traditional approaches to aid the damping of power system oscillations include the use of Power System Stabilizers (PSS). Power system stabilizers are used to generate supplementary control signals for the excitation system in order t...

Analyzing system trajectory from the perspective of individual machines provides a distinctive angle to analyze the transient stability of power systems. This two-paper series propose a direct-time-domain method that is based on the individualmachine equal area criterion. In the first paper, by examining the mapping between the trajectory and power-vs-angle curve of an individual machine, the s...

Static Synchronous Series Compensator (SSSC) is a series compensating Flexible AC Transmission System (FACTS) controller for maintaining to the power flow control on a transmission line by injecting a voltage in quadrature with the line current and in series mode with the line. In this work, an Adaptive Network-based Fuzzy Inference System controller (ANFISC) has been proposed for controlling o...

In this paper an attempt has beenmade to investigate the transient stability enhancement of both SMIB and Multi-machine system using UPFC controller tuned by Particle Swarm Optimization. Power injection modelfor a series voltage source of UPFC has been implemented to replace UPFC by equivalent admittance. The admittance matrix of the power system is then modified according to the power injectio...

A shipboard power system is a stiff, isolated power system. Power is generated locally, and distributed over short distances making the system vulnerable to transients. Power quality problems such as voltage sags, which arise due to a fault or a pulsed load, can cause interruptions of critical loads. This can be of a serious concern for the survivability of a combat ship. A series voltage injec...

electric and hybrid electric vehicles are attractive candidates for sustainable transportation due to its higher efficiency and low emission. the critical choice on the electric motors is its capability of motoring and regenerative braking characteristics. switched reluctance machines are viable candidate as with proper control and extended constant power range operation replacing the multi-gea...
