<p>Flexible alternating current transmission system (FACTS) devices are deployed for improving power system’s stability either singly or as a combination. This research investigates hybrid FACTS and studies their impact on voltage, small-signal transient simultaneously under various disturbances. The simulations were done using five devices-static var compensator (SVC), static synchronous...

A Power quality problem is an occurrence manifested as a nonstandard voltage, current or frequency that results in a failure or a mis-operation of end user equipments. Utility distribution networks, sensitive industrial loads and critical commercial operations suffer from various types of outages and service interruptions which can cost significant financial losses. With the restructuring of po...

The wind energy conversion system (WECS) differs from other power systems. It is clean and pollution free. But the output of wind power plant is fluctuated in nature. It depends on the wind speed. The nature of wind is variable. The variable wind generates fluctuated power. Fluctuated output is the major problem of wind power plant. This problem can be solved by using convertor units. The secon...

The objective of the paper is the application of modular multilevel cascade converter based on double star bridge cells (DSBCs) to a Static synchronous Compensator (STATCOM), for reactive-power control. The power consumed by the heavy load will create an unsymmetrical current will reducing the quality of the power in the electrical grid. Due to the unsymmetrical current the electrical power in ...

Fast fluctuations in wind farm power produce voltage flicker the network. One way to mitigate is place a static VAr compensator (SVC). Due operating delay of SVCs, it essential predict reactive power. Here, novel fuzzy nonlinear modeling approach suggested and used one-step-ahead prediction characteristics. The base developed Takagi-Sugeno representation dual-unscented Kalman filter (D-UKF). In...
