Distributed Flexible AC Transmission System(D-FACTS) was proposed as a solution for weakness of FACTS device s. The D-FACTS device DSSC(Distributed Static Series Co mpensator) can provide controllable reactance compensation in transmission line such as SSSC(Static Synchronous Series Compensator). This paper introduce the algorithm of reactive power injection on DSSC and propose the method of current balancing by reactive power injection. The proposed algorithm has been verified with simulation and experiment results.

In recent deregulation and competitive power market environment, electric utilities plan and operate their systems for economic benefit with secure system condition. Flexible AC transmission system(FACTS) technology opens up new opportunities of controlling power and enhancing the usable capacity of present transmission system. This paper presents a method for security constrained optimal allocation of FAETS considering contingencies for the purpose of enhanced system operation. The proposed scheme uses Benders decomposition to account of both corrective and preventive mode.

The flexible AC transmission system (FACTS) provides a new advanced technology solution to improve the flexibility, controllability, and stability of a power system. The unified power flow controller (UPFC) is outstanding for regulating power flow in the FACTS; it can control the real power, reactive power, and node voltage of distribution networks. This paper investigates the performance of the UPFC for power flow control with a series of step changes in rapid succession in a power system steady state and the response of the UPFC to distribution network faults and islanding mode. Simulation was carried out using the MATLAB's simulink sim power systems toolbox. The results, which were carried out on a 5-bus test system and a 4-bus multi-machine electric power system, show clearly the effectiveness and viability of UPFC in rapid response and independent control of the real and reactive power flows and oscillation damping [6].

This paper describes controller development for a dynamic voltage compensator using a shunt diode converter and series inverter. The control system was designed using 1/4 period integrator and vector relationship between the supply voltage and load voltage. A simulation model and scaled hardware model were developed for analyzing performance of the controller and the whole system. Both results confirm that the dynamic compensator can restore the load voltage under the fault of the distribution system.

우리나라 전력계통은 점점 복잡화, 대형화되어 가고 있으나, 이에 따른 전력설비의 신설은 날로 어려워지고 있다. 이러한 변화에 능동적으로 대처하기 위해 FACTS(Flexible AC Transmission System) 기술이 주목받고 있으며, FACTS는 대용량 전력전자기술을 이용하여 송전선로의 안정도 제어 및 송전용량 증대를 목적으로 설치된다. 현재 우리나라 전력계통에는 SVC, UPFC, STATCOM 등의 기기들이 개발되어 운영되어 있으며, 그 중에 SVC가 대표적으로 변전소에 많이 설치되어 무효전력 보상으로 전압안정도를 향상시키고 있다. 이에 따라서 본 논문은 154kV 송전계통에서 SVC의 여러 제어 방법 중 Susceptance 제어에 관해서 기술하고자 한다.

Advanced controllers among Flexible AC Transmission System(FACTS) devices employ self-commutated switching converters, VSI (Voltage Sourced Inverters), as the synchronous voltage source. Such controllers are SSSC (Static Synchronous Series Compensator), STATCOM (Static Synchronous Compensator) and UPFC (Unified Power Flow Controller). UPFC is series-shunt combined controller. Its series and shunt inverters can be modeled as SSSC and STATCOM but the dependant relation between the inverters is very complex. For that reason, the complexity makes it difficult to develop the UPFC model by simply combining the SSSC and STATOM models when we apply the model for conventional power system dynamic simulation algorithm. Therefore, we need each relevant models of VSI type FACTS devices for power system analysis. This paper proposes a modeling approach which can be applied to modeling of VSI type FACTS devices. The proposed method using Newton-type current injection method can be used to make UPFC, SSSC, and STATCOM models. The proposed models are used for 2-area test system simulation, and the results verify their effectiveness.

This paper describes a simulation model and a scaled hardware model to analyze the dynamic performance of Unified Power Flow Controller, which can flexibly adjust the active power flow through the ac transmission line. The design of control system for UPFC was developed using vector control method. The results of simulation and scaled hardware test show that the developed control system works accurately. Both models would be very effective for analyzing the dynamic performance of the Unified Power Flow Controller.

This paper proposes a bifurcation theory method applied for voltage stability analysis and shows the improvement of voltage stability by attaching the FACTS devices in the power system. A power system is generally expressed by a set of equations of highly nonlinear dynamical system which includes system parameters(real or reactive power). Sometimes variation of parameters in the system may result in complication behaviors which give rise to system instability. The addition of FACTS increases the range of voltage stability in the power system. The effect of FACTS which improves voltage stability are illustrated in the case studies by delaying of Unstable Hopf Bifurcation and Saddle Node Bifurcation.
