This paper presents an approach for optimum reactive power dispatch through the power network with flexible AC transmissionsystems (FACTSs) devices using adaptive fuzzy logic controller (AFLC) driven by adaptive fuzzy sets (AFSs) The membershipfunctions of AFLC are optimized based on 2nd-order fuzzy set specifications The operation of FACTS devices (particularly staticVAR compensator (SVC)) and the setting of their control parameters (119876SVC) are optimized dynamically based on the proposedAFLC to enhance the power system stability in addition to their main function of power flow control The proposed AFLC iscompared with a static fuzzy logic controller (SFLC) driven by a fixed fuzzy set (FFS) Simulation studies were carried out andvalidated on the standard IEEE 30-bus test system
1 Introduction
Optimal power flow (OPF) control in power systems hasa direct impact on system security and economic dispatchEarly OPF approaches were based on classical mathematicalprogramming methods and successfully showed their capa-bility in this field [1 2] A nonlinear programming (NLP)[1ndash3] linear programming (LP) [4 5] and Newton-basedmethod [6] have presented their competences in this area aswell Shahidehpour and Deeb [7] discussed the advantagesand drawbacks of most of the existing techniques On theother hand FACTS devices have become very popular inimproving the overall performance of power system underboth steady state and dynamic conditions In the literaturemany research works were carried out with FACTS devicesbeing included in the power system analysis and optimization[8ndash10] They were introduced to discuss the control strategyof FACTS devices using multiobjective OPF [10] Nowadaysthis target is applicable and achievable with the help of fastcontrollers FACTS to provide a greater operational flexibilityand more coordinated control of power flow [5 10] Theconcept of FACTS is made possible by the application ofhigh power electronic devices It is well recognized thatstability limits can be increased in real time by employingFACTS controllers [11 12] In addition to the steady statecontrol of power flow and voltage FACTS controllers can
also contribute to both large and small signal dynamicperformance of the power system [13 14]
FACTS controllers can be generally classified as seriescontrollers shunt controllers and combined series-shuntcontrollers [15 16] This paper addresses the problem ofoptimal sizing and control of static VAR compensator (SVC)as a FACTS device to attain certain objectives using FACTScontrollers for dynamic performance improvement More-over the optimal location of FACTS devices is an importantissue and depends on the objectives of the problem in handMahdad et al [10] introduced an 8 SVCs devices connectedto the IEEE 30-bus system in specific locations (at buses 1012 15 17 21 23 24 and 29) to enhance OPF at different severloading conditionsThis paperwill take the advantage of theselocations to examine the economic dispatch and the securityof the system as theminimization of voltage deviations at loadbuses

52The Application of AFLC for Optimal Reactive Power Con-trol GA deals with the problem of optimizing a nonlinearobjective function in the presence of nonlinear equality andinequality constraints The main goal here is to construct theoptimum GA algorithms (AFLC) for SVCs control
521 Objective Function One objective function was createdas follows
1198651 = minimization of voltage deviations (12)
522 Network Constraints 119876119894 represents the reactive powervalue at any bus 119894 whereas Δ119876119894 is the change in thereactive power which will be obtained from the SVC at bus119894 Moreover the reactive power value at bus 119894 should bewithin the permissible limits (ie between119876119894min and119876119894max)Additionally the voltage limits stated in (5) and (9) should beconsidered as constraints

In this paper the operation of SVCdevices and the settingof their control parameters (119876SVC) are optimized dynamicallybased on the proposed AFLC to enhance power systemstability in addition to their main function of power flowcontrol The eight fuzzy controllers are then designed to findthe optimal values of119876SVC10119876SVC12119876SVC15119876SVC17119876SVC21119876SVC23 119876SVC24 and 119876SVC29 Two static fuzzy controllers arethen designed one with five linguistic variables using fixedfuzzy sets for each input variable see Figure 2 the secondSFLC has three linguistic variables with fixed fuzzy sets foreach input variable and output variable based on five fuzzysets indicated by the solid lines as shown in Figure 2 Thefigure uses several linguistic variables PL (positive large) PS(positive small) Z (zero) NS (negative small) NL (negativelarge) as indicated in Tables 1 and 2
The fuzzy input vector of each AFLC consists of theprevious variables used in SFLCwith three linguistic variablesusing adaptive fuzzy sets Each input and output variablefuzzy set uses only three linguistic variables (LVs) as shownin Figure 3 In this figure the fuzzy set of the related variablesusedwith SFLC is indicated by the solid lines while the dottedlines represent the simulation results of the fuzzy set whenusing the AFLC LVs used are PL (positive large) Z (zero)and NL (negative large) as indicated in Table 2

where 119869119897 is the model routine encoded in the chromosome
51 Crossover and Mutation Operators The crossover isapplied and the mating pool is created Then the mutationprocedure is utilized followed by AGAPOP algorithm givenin [18] Finally the overall fitness of population is enhancedThe process is repeated for maximum allowable number ofgenerations when the termination condition is achievedThisprocess is described in the flowchart illustrated in Figure 4
52The Application of AFLC for Optimal Reactive Power Con-trol GA deals with the problem of optimizing a nonlinearobjective function in the presence of nonlinear equality andinequality constraints The main goal here is to construct theoptimum GA algorithms (AFLC) for SVCs control
521 Objective Function One objective function was createdas follows
1198651 = minimization of voltage deviations (12)
522 Network Constraints 119876119894 represents the reactive powervalue at any bus 119894 whereas Δ119876119894 is the change in thereactive power which will be obtained from the SVC at bus119894 Moreover the reactive power value at bus 119894 should bewithin the permissible limits (ie between119876119894min and119876119894max)Additionally the voltage limits stated in (5) and (9) should beconsidered as constraints
6 Results and Discussions
To study and design the system controller with 1198651 as a mainobjective function the following emergencies were applied toit
(1) overload test up to 132(2) load rejection test up to 80
In each test the optimum values of the control variables(119880) for all SVCrsquos are determined using the AFLC and SFLC

31 Global Input Variables The fuzzy input vector of eachstatic fuzzy logic controller (SFLC) has two variables whichcan briefly summarized by the voltage deviation error (119890V) andvoltage deviation change of error (Δ119890V)
In this paper the operation of SVCdevices and the settingof their control parameters (119876SVC) are optimized dynamicallybased on the proposed AFLC to enhance power systemstability in addition to their main function of power flowcontrol The eight fuzzy controllers are then designed to findthe optimal values of119876SVC10119876SVC12119876SVC15119876SVC17119876SVC21119876SVC23 119876SVC24 and 119876SVC29 Two static fuzzy controllers arethen designed one with five linguistic variables using fixedfuzzy sets for each input variable see Figure 2 the secondSFLC has three linguistic variables with fixed fuzzy sets foreach input variable and output variable based on five fuzzysets indicated by the solid lines as shown in Figure 2 Thefigure uses several linguistic variables PL (positive large) PS(positive small) Z (zero) NS (negative small) NL (negativelarge) as indicated in Tables 1 and 2
