Effects of FACTS devices on variables in active power flow equation.

Series Controllers

• Variable impedance (capacitor, Inductor)

To control

• Frequency

• Subsynchonous and

• Harmonic frequencies

• Inject a voltage

• Supplies or consumes reactive power

• Control of both active and reactive power

Basic module of Thyristor

Controlled Series Capacitor

Series Controllers

• Current control

• Damping Oscillations

• Transient and Dynamic stability

• Voltage stability

• Fault current limiting

• If > 0; The combined reactance is Capacitive. • If < 0; The combined reactance is Inductive.

Shunt compensation

• Variable impedance (capacitor, Inductor)

• Inject a current

• Consumes reactive power

• Involves control of both active and reactive power

• Improves system stabilities and pf

FACTS Implemented On a ModelSpecification:

• Line is 350 Km (218.75 mile)

• Conductor Mallard (ACSR)

• Flat horizontal Spacing is 7.25 m (23.8 ft)

• Frequency is 50 Hz

• Receiving end voltage is 230KV

• Receiving end Power is 138.45MW

• Power Factor is 1 (100%)

== = 30.0 ft

Short = less than about 80 km (50 mile) longMedium = 80 km to 240 km (150 mile) longLong = longer than 240 km long

Calculation of Transmission line Parameters (R, L & C)

Resistance (R)• R60 = 0.127 Ω/mile• R50 = 0.127

Inductance (L)• XL60 = (Xa+ Xd) = (0.393 + 0.4127) = 0.8057 Ω/mile• XL50 = 0.8057• L50 =

Capacitance (C)• XC60 = (Xa+ Xd) = (0.0904 + 0.1009) = 0.1913 Ω/mile• XC50 = 0.1913• C50 =

The benefits of SVC to power transmission

• Stabilized voltages in weak systems

• Reduced transmission losses

• Increased transmission capacity, to reduce, defer or eliminate the need for

new lines

• Higher transient stability limit

• Increased damping of minor disturbances

• Greater voltage control and stability

• Better adjustment of line loadings

Conclusion

• Application of power electronics

• Makes a system ‘flexible’

• Play important role in active and reactive power control

• Helps to improve the capacity of an existing system

• Improve the power quality and stability

• The most viable and secure option to meet the power demand optimally.
