The optimization is one of the challenging problems in power system. The optimization sometimes is mainly restricted to the minimization of the operating cost. However, the operation of power plants, mostly thermal units, results into various types of emissions like SOx, NOx and COx etc. The environmental concern dictates the minimization of the emissions by the thermal plant. Individually, if ...

Therefore it is important that voltages and power flows in an electrical system can be determined for a given set of loading and operating conditions. This is known as the power flow problem. Power flow analysis is used extensively in the planning, design and operation of electrical systems. In power flow analysis, it is normal to assume that the system is balanced and that the network is compo...

The ordinary power flow or load flow problem is stated by specifying the loads in megawatts and megavars to be supplied at certain nodes or busbars of a transmission system and by the generated powers and the voltage magnitudes at the remaining nodes of this system together with a complete topological description of the system including its impedances. The objective is to determine the complex ...

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 ...

in this paper, we present a new method to determine the optimal location and parameter settings of unifiedpower flow controller (upfc) for removing voltage violations and transmission lines overloading. upfc isconsidered as the most powerful member of the facts devices, that it can control shunt and series power flow.this option gives to upfc the power to control the voltage profile and transmi...

Abstract—The Flexible AC Transmission System (FACTS) technology is a new advanced solution that increases the reliability and provides more flexibility, controllability, and stability of a power system. The Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC), as the most versatile FACTS device for regulating power flow, is able to control respectively transmission line real power, reactive power, and node vol...

Abstract In this paper, a fuzzy PID with new structure is proposed to solve the load frequency control in interconnected power systems. in this study, a new structure and effective of the fuzzy PID-type Load frequency control (LFC) is proposed to solve the load frequency control in interconnected power systems. The main objective is to eliminate the deviations in the frequency of different area...
