This paper proposes the FACTS site selection method using subtransmission system reduction. A general method which uses the sensitivity of the variation in voltage and reactive power has been used to determine the location of shunt type FACTS device, but there is a difficulty to finding a proper location due to the overestimation of the effect of sub-transmission systems. Therefore, there is a need to reduce sub-transmission system for finding an effective location of shunt type FACTS devices such as SVC(Static Var Compensator), STATCOM(Static Synchronous Compesator), and so on.

The power system has to maintain its synchronism from transient disturbances and oscillations. To achieve this, the static var compensator(SVC), which is a flexible AC transmission system(FACTS), is applied to the power system. SVC using an advanced control algorithm improves the stability of power system. This paper is a study on design of SVC to improve harmonics and power factor of power plant. The proposed SVC analyzes harmonics, voltage drop and reactive power in real time. On the basis of the analysis of the data, the SVC using a switching control algorithm decreases harmonic signals and increases the power factor. The experimental results show that the proposed SVC enhances the stability of power system.

본 논문에서는 송전선로에 직렬로 삽입되어 선로의 리액턴스를 동적으로 보상하는 인버터식 직렬보상기에 대한 동적 응동 해석을 기술하고 있다. 이 직렬보상기는 다중펄스로 동작하는 전압원인버터와 결합변압기, 그리고 제어장치로 구성되어 있으며, 점호각을 조절하여 선로의 리액턴스를 가변하고 용량성 뿐만 아니라 유도성 보상도 가능하다. 이 보상기로 선로의 리액턴스를 감소시키면 전송 유효전력의 증각가 가능한데, 이러한 효과를 본 논문에서는 단일기-무한대-버스 전력계통에 대해 EMTP를 이용한 시뮬레션으로 확인하였으며, 또한 축소모형 제작과 실험을 통해 실험적으로 확인하였다.

To cope with increasing power demand in metropolitan area, the power system in Korea has equipped with unit generator of large capacity, high density and uneven distribution, and transmission line of long distance, large capacity and high voltage. As the power system growing up enormous, it has become difficult to maintain the standard voltage in case of radical fluctuation of load or severe change of voltage by power system fault for its weakness of responsive characteristics although the power condenser has been installed to solve the unstability by lack of reactive power. Consequently, we review harmonic wave production and control characteristics to solve unstability problem of voltage in northern metropolitan, to reduce transmission restriction cost and to minimize load shedding by relocation of SVC (Static Var Compensator), which is highly effective for improvement of responsive characteristics for radical voltage fluctuation.

This paper proposes a novel control strategy of SVC(Static var compensator) using cascade multilevel inverter. To control the reactive power instantaneously, the dq-dynamic system model is described and analyzed. A single pulse pattern based on the SHE(Selective Harmonic Elimination) technique is determined from the look-up table to reduce the line current harmonics and a rotating fundamental frequency switching scheme is applied to adjust the DC capacitor voltage at the scheme level. From the simulation, it is verified that this proposed control scheme make the dynamic control response of SVC fast, the current harmonics low, and the DC capacitor voltage balanced.

본 논문은 저압 배전선로의 전압 조정을 위해 상태관측기와 반복제어기를 적용한 무효전력 제어 알고리즘을 제안하였으며, 시뮬레이션 및 실험으로 이를 검증하였다. 무효전력 보상기는 단상 풀 브리지 인버터 구조이며 전압제어 시 DC 전압을 일정하게 유지하기 위한 전압 제어와 전류 제어기로 구성된다. DC 리플 보상방식은 상태관측기로 만들어낸 출력 값, DC 링크 리플 성분을 보상한 값을 전압제어기 피드백 성분으로 사용하여 전압을 일정하게 제어하였다. 무효전력을 안정하게 주입하기 위해 기본파 성분은 PI제어기로 제어하고 반복제어기를 PI제어기와 병렬로 연결하여 저차 고조파를 보상하였다. 반복 제어기는 동기 좌표계에서 구현됨에 따라 홀수파 고조파 성분을 제거하는 역할을 한다. 제안한 제어기법은 5kVar 단상 인버터 시스템으로 실험을 진행하였으며, 상태관측기와 반복제어기가 적용된 경우 THD가 9%에서 2%로 향상됨을 확인함으로써 제안한 알고리즘의 성능을 검증하였다.

Distributed generation systems (DGSs) have been getting more and more attention in terms of renewable energy use and new generation technologies in the past decades. The self-excited induction generator (SEIG) occupies an important role in the area of energy conversion due to its low cost, robustness and simple control. Unlike synchronous generators, the SEIG has to absorb capacitive reactive power from the outer device aiming to stabilize the terminal voltage at load changes. This paper presents a novel static VAR compensator (SVC) called a magnetic energy recovery switch (MERS) to serve as a voltage controller in SEIG powered DGSs. In addition, many small scale SEIGs, instead of a single large one, are applied and devoted to promote the generation efficiency. To begin with, an expandable mathematic model based on a d-q equivalent circuit is created for parallel SEIGs. The control method of the MERS is further improved with the objective of broadening its operating range and restraining current harmonics by parameter optimization. A hybrid control strategy is developed by taking both of the stand-alone and grid-connected modes into consideration. Then simulation and experiments are carried out in the case of single and double SEIG(s) generation. Finally, the measurement results verify that the proposed DGS with SVC-MERS achieves a better stability and higher feasibility. The major advantages of the mentioned variable reactive power supplier, when compared to the STATCOM, include the adoption of a small DC capacitor, line frequency switching, simple control and less loss.

The conventional method of improving the transient stability in a power system is the use of reactive power compensation devices, such as the STATCOM and SVC. However, this traditional method cannot prevent the rapid voltage collapse brought about by the stalling of the motor due to a system fault. On the other hand, the ESS (Energy Storage System) provides fast-acting, flexible reactive and active power control. The fast-acting power compensation provided by an energy storage system plays a significant role in enhancing the transient stability after a major fault in the power system. In this paper, a method of enhancing the transient stability using an energy storage system is proposed for power systems including a dynamic load, such as a large motor. The effectiveness of the energy storage system compared to conventional devices in enhancing the transient stability of the power system is presented. The results of the simulations show that the simultaneous injection of active and reactive power can enhance the transient stability more effectively.
