This book was released on 2021-04-18 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: FACTS are one aspect of power electronics revolution that is taking place in all areas of electrical energy. A variable of powerful semiconductor devices not only offer the advantage of high speed and reliability of switching but, more importantly, the opportunity offered by a variety of innovative circuit concepts based on these power devices enhance the value of electric energy. In generation area, the potential application of power electronics is largely in renewable generation. Photovoltaic and fuel cells requires conversion of dc to ac. Generation with variable speed is necessary for economic viability of wind and small hydro generators. Variable-speed wind generators and small hydro generators requires conversion of variable frequency ac to power system frequency. These applications of power electronics in renewable generation area require converter sizes in the range of few kilowatts to few megawatts. In coming decades, electrical energy storage is expected to be widely used in power systems as capacitor, battery and superconducting magnet technologies move forward. Batteries are widely used already for emergency power supplies. These require ac/dc/ac converters in the range of a few kilowatts to a few tens of megawatts. On the other hand, variable speed hydro storage requires converters of up to a few hundred megawatts. In transmission area, application of power electronics consists of High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) power transmission and FACTS. HVDC is often an economical way to interconnect certain power systems, which are suited in different regions separated by long distances or those have different frequencies or incompatible frequency control. HVDC involves conversion of ac to dc at one end and conversion of dc to ac at the other end. What is most interesting for transmission planners is that FACTS opens up new opportunities for controlling power and enhancing the usable capacity of the lines. The possibility that current through a line can be controlled at reasonable cost enables a large potential of increasing the capacity of the existing lines with larger conductors, and use one of the FACTS controllers to enable corresponding power to flow through lines under normal and contingency conditions. These opportunities arise through the ability of FACTS controllers to control the interrelated parameters that govern the operation of transmission line including series impedance, shunt impedance, current, voltage, phase angle, and the damping of oscillations at various frequencies below the rated frequency. In distribution area, an exciting opportunity called Custom Power. The custom power concept incorporates power electronics controllers and switching equipment, one or more of which can be used to provide a value-added service to the customers. In general, these custom service applications represent power electronics in the range of few tens of kilowatts to few ten of megawatts of conversion or switching equipment between the utility supply and customer. On the end-user side, power electronics conversion and switching technology has been fast growing area. Complementing the Custom Power technology is the whole area of power conditioning technology used by customers, under the term Power Quality. Uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) and voltage regulators represent the major growth area in power electronics. In end use, the converter sizes range from a few watts to ten of megawatts. The term active filter is a general one and is applied to a group of power electronic circuits incorporating power switching devices and passive energy storage circuit elements such as inductors and capacitors. The functions of these circuits vary depending on the applications. They are generally used for controlling current harmonics in supply networks at the low and medium voltage distribution level or for reactive power and/or voltage control at high voltage distribution level. These functions may be combined in a single circuit or in separate active filters. Most of the control schemes introduced in the existing papers were designed either for eliminating current harmonics or eliminating voltage flickers or for load flow control. So, this work is devoted to find a proper optimal control schemes for a system with series or shunt or series and shunt converters that can provide all functions together. Various optimal control schemes will be designed for systems with series, shunt and series-shunt converters with the objective to control the load flow through a lines and to eliminate current harmonics and voltage flickers with different strategies for tracking. · Part 1: Gives the description of optimal control design. · Part 2: Case studies to design different optimal control schemes for system with UPFC unit to control the power flow, eliminate voltage flicker and eliminate current harmonics. The case studies were repeated for system with only series or shunt converters.

This book was released on 2010 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Electrical power systems is a large interconnected network that requires a careful design to maintain the system with continuous power flow operation without any limitations. Flexible Alternating Current Transmission System (FACTS) is an application of a power electronics device to control the power flow and to improve the system stability of a power system. Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC) is a versatile device in the FACTS family of controllers which has the ability to simultaneously control all the transmission parameters of power systems i.e. voltage, impedance and phase angle which determines the power flow of a transmission line. This project proposes a case study to control the power flow of a power system with UPFC. In this study, I am considering a standard 5-bus network for the analysis. Power flow equations are solved using Newton Raphson's algorithm and the simulations of the algorithm are done in MATLAB. The results of the network with and without UPFC are compared in terms of active and reactive power flow in the transmission line at the bus to analyze the performance of UPFC.

This book was released on 2014-02-20 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rate of Iraqi power demand has been increased significantly faster than the infrastructure's development and it becomes very difficult to keep the system stable especially with the current acts of vandalism against the country, so it's very important to improve the power system stability. The object of this work is to improve the stability of the Iraqi National Super Grid System (INSGS) by installing Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC) devices in different optimal locations under fault condition and comparing the results with those of without UPFC devices under the same condition. The optimal location of the UPFC device was specified based on Genetic Algorithm (GA) optimization method, it was utilized to search for optimum UPFC parameters setting and location based objective function that depends on the power and voltage as a fitness constraints. The results obtained showed that the installation of Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC) devices at the optimal locations of the Iraqi grid gives an improvement in the stability by damping the voltage and rotor angle oscillations after subjected to the three phase fault to ground at different locations and different cases.
