The unique capability of the Unified Power Flow Controller in multiple line compensation are integrated into a generalized power flow controller that is able to maintain prescribed and independently controllable, real power and reactive power flow within the line. We demonstrate the proposed technique on a single machine infinite bus system. In this paper, we propose UPFC with PSS design scheme...

Today’s changing electric power systems create a growing need for flexibility, reliability, fast response and accuracy in the fields of electric power generation, transmission, distribution and consumption. Power system networks are complex systems that are nonlinear, disturbances and faults. It can be accomplished by improving the voltage profile, enhancement of voltage stability and by reduci...

A transformer-less unified power flow controller (UPFC) is a electronic device consisting of series and shunt voltage source converters (VSCs) that are not connected to common DC bus. It can control in medium (MV) distribution networks without the need for interfacing transformers. Hence there significant reduction size cost compared conventional UPFC. This paper investigates operating range UP...

In this paper a new optimization algorithm, the biogeography based optimization (BBO) is employed to design a robust power oscillation damping (POD) controller using unified power flow controller (UPFC). The controller that is used to damp low frequency oscillation is designed over a wide range of operating points using two different objective functions. The obtained controllers are then verifi...

FACTS devices are used to control the power flow, to increase the transmission capacity and to optimize the stability of the power system. One of the most widely used FACTS devices is Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC). The controller used in the control mechanism has a significantly effects on controlling of the power flow and enhancing the system stability of UPFC. According to this, the ca...
