One of the best flexible AC transmission system (FACTS) is unified power flow controller (UPFC). As it gets more benefit from both real and reactive transfer, used in for controlling transmitted power. The UPFC controls on side system. When as well set tries to follow command by using proportional integral (PI) controller. But some systems PI controllers cannot produce proper due oscillations. ...

FACTS devices plays a significant role to control the power flow of power transmission system. In this paper, a hybrid PSO algorithm is proposed to optimize the location of UPFC in power system. The proposed hybrid PSO algorithm has solved the formulated multiobjective optimization problem. This paper, five objective function to be considered in the form of minimization such as the fast voltage...

This paper describes and validates transient stability and power flow model of a Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC), and presents a detailed comparison of different controls strategies, proposing novel, efficient and simple controls for this controller. The proposed model accurately represents the behavior of the controller in quasi-steady state operating conditions, and hence is adequate for...

This paper presents the genetic optimization of the parameters of a fuzzy PI controller for UPFC( Unified Power flow controller) using an improved genetic algorithm to enhance the transient stability performance of power systems. The function based Takagi-Sugeno-Kang (TSK) fuzzy controller uses minimum number of rules(hvo rules) and generates the proportional action which by one-to-two inferenc...

A unified power flow controller (UPFC) based on the flying capacitor (FC) multilevel voltage-source converter (VSC) topology with phase-shifted sinusoidal pulse-width modulation (PWM) control is presented. This converter allows higher power handling, potentially lower power loss, lower harmonic distortion and hence less filtering requirements when compared with the typical two-level counterppar...

Main contribution of this work is improving transient stability by installing Flexible AC Transmission System (FACTS) in power systems. For do this, Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC) has been selected. Also a novel structure has been suggested to improve classic Harmony Search algorithm and suggested improved Harmony Search (iHS) algorithm. This algorithm has been used to obtain UPFC paramet...

The loss minimization is a major role in Power System (PS) research. Transmission line losses in a PS can be reduced by Var compensation. After the establishment of power markets with transmission open access, the significance and use of Flexible AC Transmission Systems (FACTS) devices for manipulating line power flows to relieve congestion and maximize the overall grid operation have been incr...
