in this paper, power system restoration in the presence of svc and tcsc in partial outage conditions is considered and a new method for maximum load restoration using different control variables is presented. control variables are tap of transformers, generation rescheduling and operating points of facts devices. objective function is restored load (to be maximized) and constraints are voltage ...

an electric arc furnace (eaf) is known as nonlinear and time variant load that causes power quality (pq) problems such as, current, voltage and current harmonics, voltage flicker, frequency changes in power system. one of the most important problems to study the eaf behavior is the choice of a suitable model for this load. hence, in this paper, a probabilistic three-phase model is proposed base...

Voltage control is one of the imperative issues in the smart distribution control system. While traditional distribution network is equipped with communication and monitoring equipment, the online voltage control can be perfectly achieved. With using these smart grid technologies, the distribution voltage control schemes should carry out intelligently and cover the undesirable effect of high pe...

in methods presented to calculate the voltage collapse point, the transmission system is usually the only part of the power system that is completely modeled. distribution systems are often replaced by aggregate load models because the use of the detailed model of distribution systems in voltage stability analysis not only increases the computation time, but also decreases the probability of co...

Induction motor is the most popular load in the industry, it is very important to study about the effects of voltage quality on induction motor performance. One of the most important voltage quality problems in power system is voltage unbalance. This paper evaluates and compares two methods including finite element method (FEM) and equivalent electrical circuit simulation for investigation ...

in this paper, the performance of two types of facts devices in order to enhance the power system static voltage stability has been investigated. these devices include static var compensator (svc) and thyristor controlled series capacitor (tcsc). the modeling of the single machine infinite bus (smib) and aforesaid devices has been made up in steady state mode with disregarding of the generator ...

Low voltage microgrids including sensitive loads often face unbalanced load conditions. Therefore, a compensation procedure should be carried out in order to balance and restore sensitive load’s voltage. In this paper, an effective voltage control strategy has been proposed for the autonomous operation of microgrids, under unbalanced load conditions.  The proposed strategy balances single-phase...

Power system blackouts have become a serious problem for electric utilities especially in recent years. Different forms of system instability have emerged in recent blackouts, such as voltage instability and frequency instability. To counteract each form of system instability, special algorithms have been designed in the protection system, e.g. Under Frequency Load Shedding (UFLS) and Under Vol...
