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 2017 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Flexible ac transmission system (FACTS) controllers offer new opportunities to better control power systems, and can address some of the critical challenges faced by the grid, especially in the context of smart grids. Furthermore, the smartening of distribution systems with distributed generation, storage devices, and intelligent loads have created challenges for the operation of distribution feeders, which can be addressed adequately with power-electronics based controllers and FACTS controllers for distribution systems. However, the capital intensive nature of these controllers is a major obstacle for a wide application of this technology in power systems. A cost effective FACTS controller has been introduced in the literature, which yields operating characteristics similar to those of the versatile Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC). This device consists of converters as well as passive components, and is referred to as the Hybrid Power Flow Controller (HPFC). The study of the HPFC and its performance in electric power systems requires adequate and relevant models representing the device behavior according to the intended studies, such as steady state or time-domain dynamic analyses; moreover, the benefits of an HPFC are determined by its limits and operating constraints. Therefore, static and dynamic models of the HPFC for transmission and distribution system applications are proposed and studied in this work. First, steady-state models of the HPFC for power flow and optimal power flow (OPF) studies are proposed in this work, considering its multiple control modes and operating constraints. Thus, a strategy for control limit handling in power flow calculations is proposed, while considering a discrete passive shunt capacitor bank in the device. Moreover, an OPF model of the device is proposed and explained in detail, representing all the device control and physical limits as constraints in the mathematical formulation, so that the HPFC can be optimally dispatched as a part of the transmission system control assets; this model is used to determine the optimal ratings of the device based on a cost--benefit analysis. The proposed power flow and OPF models are tested and validated based on several loadability studies on a two-area benchmark test system. The HPFC power flow model is also tested and applied to a detailed model of Ontario grid and its neighboring networks with more than 6000 buses. The analyses demonstrate the application of the models for planning and operation studies, evaluating the performance and the effectiveness of the device based on realistic studies and scenarios. Second, the merits and the added value of the HPFC application to distribution systems are discussed here through detailed modeling and time-domain simulations, examining its impact on a distribution network under different conditions. Thus, a detailed dynamic representation of the HPFC is developed and implemented in PSCAD/EMTDC, describing and proposing control strategies to properly operate this controller in distribution system applications, such as an effective and simple procedure for starting-up the device. The developed model is used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the controller for solving problems in distribution systems, such as voltage sags associated with feeder faults and power flow fluctuations due to intermittent renewable generation using a benchmark network as an illustrative example.

Download or read book Improvement of Dynamic Power System Stability by Installing Unified Power Flow Controller UPFC Based on Fuzzy Logic Power System Stabilizer FLPSS written by Arizadayana Zahalan and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last two decade, the demand of electrical power increased tremendously and power system have been operated under much more stressed condition hence may lead to unstable power system. On the other hand, low frequency oscillation due to interconnection between remotely located power system may as well affect the system stability. Thus, to improve dynamic power system stability the research proposed the installation of Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC) which is the most versatile Flexible AC Transmission System (FACTS) device in single machine infinite bus (SMIB) based on fuzzy logic power system stabilizer (FLPSS). In the proposed system, the parameters for the power system before and after the installation of UPFC is derived referring to the Phillips-Heffron SMIB model. After the mathematical process, the value of all the parameters is obtained using Matlab m-file listing program. Based on the parameter value, the block diagram for the power system before and after the installation of UPFC is formed using Matlab Simulink. Power system stabilizer is then added to the conventional power system model while FLPSS is added to UPFC excitation control. In this study, damping controller m_E and m_B of UPFC is used. After given small disturbances to both power system, the ability of both power system to damp oscillation is monitored by investigating the changes of rotor angle, change of rotor speed and change of electrical power. The result showed that that fuzzy logic controller is able to decrease the amplitude of low frequency oscillation and increases damping rate successfully. Comparing between power system model installed with UPFC based on FLPSS and conventional power system indicates that the proposed FLPSS has less settling time and less overshoot. When electrical power is increased at 0.1 pu, using damping controller m_E, rotor angle overshoot is decreased at 84.63% and settling time decreased at 80.32%. Rotor speed overshoot decreased at 63.28% whereas the settling time is reduced at 61.97%. The electrical power also shows a significant reduce in overshoot by 16.31% while the settling time is reduced by 61.80%. For m_B, rotor angle overshoot is decreased at 82.87% and settling time decreased at 82.61%. The rotor speed experienced a decrease of 57.55% in overshoot whereas the settling time is reduced at 74.24%. For electrical power, settling time is reduced by 60.24%. When electrical power is decreased at 0.1 pu, using damping controller m_E, rotor angle overshoot decreased at 84.61% and settling time decreased at 82.00%. Rotor speed overshoot decreased at 63.29% whereas the settling time is reduced at 63.83%. The electrical power also shows a significant reduce in overshoot by 16.31% while the settling time is reduced by 61.61%. For m_B, rotor angle overshoot is decreased at 82.87% and settling time decreased at 83.03%. The rotor speed experienced a decrease of 57.51% in overshoot whereas the settling time is reduced at 74.24%. For electrical power, settling time is reduced by 59.94%.This thesis focuses on analyzing different nonlinear algorithms to capture the emotional information present in two bio-signals namely Electrocardiogram (ECG) and Electromyogram (EMG).
