Results of an investigation on the application of STATCOM for damping subsynchronous resonance (SSR) in a multi-machine system is presented in this paper. For a multi-machine system which has a set of identical parallel turbine-generators or non-identical turbine-generators having torsional modes of the same frequency, generators may suffer from the same mode of torsional interaction correspond...

The STATCOM (Synchronous Static Compensator) based on voltage source converter (VSC) is used for voltage regulation in transmission and distribution systems. The STATCOM can rapidly supply dynamic VARs required during system faults for voltage support. The apparent impedance is influenced by the reactive power injected or absorbed by the STATCOM, which will result in the under reaching or over ...

Static synchronous compensators (STATCOMs) utilize multilevel converters due to the following: 1) lower harmonic injection into the power system; 2) decreased stress on the electronic components due to decreased voltages; and 3) lower switching losses. One disadvantage, however, is the increased likelihood of a switch failure due to the increased number of switches in a multilevel converter. A ...

Proper location of DGs in power systems is important for obtaining their maximum potential benefits. This paper deals with DG for minimizing active power loss and D-statcom for reactive power loss minimization is considered. The proper siting of DG and D-statcom is a recently developed combination with the aim of reducing line loss in a radial distribution system. Loss Sensitivity Factor (LSF) ...

AbstractIn modern power system, Static Compensator (STATCOM) is used to alleviate the transient stability problem and damping power system oscillations. In this paper different STATCOM control scheme using fuzzy logic controller (FLC) and model predictive controller (MPC) for the Single Machine Infinite Bus (SMIB) system in improving transient stability is simulated using MATLAB/ Simulink in po...

This paper presents the modeling and simulation results of Z-Source Inverter based Static Compensator (STATCOM).The thirty bus system with and without STATCOM are modeled and simulated using the MATLAB software. The present work proposes Z-Source Inverter for the control of reactive power. Z-Source inverter would ensure a constant DC voltage across the DC link during the process of voltage. The...

Received Mar 2, 2014 Revised Jul 10, 2014 Accepted Jul 3, 2014 Modern Power Transmission networks are becoming increasingly stressed due to growing demand and restrictions on building new lines. Losing stability is one of the major threat of such a stressed system following a disturbance. Flexible ac transmission system (FACTS) devices are found to be very effective in a transmission network fo...

This paper investigates the performance of line commutated converter (LCC) based monopolar HVDC transmission system feeding a weak AC network with hybrid reactive power compensators (RPC’s) at the inverter AC side. The hybrid compensator is an equal mix of any two of the following compensators: synchronous compensator (SC); static var compensator (SVC); static synchronous compensator (STATCOM)....
