Abstract

Modelling and simulation of Fixed Capacitor Thyristor Controlled Reactor (FC-TCR), Static synchronous compensator (STATCOM), Thyristor controlled Series Capacitor (TCSC), Static synchronous Series Compensator (SSSC) and Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC) for power system stability enhancement and improvement of power transfer capability have been presented in this paper. First, power flow results are obtained and then power (real and reactive power) profiles have been studied for an uncompensated system and then compared with the results obtained after compensating the system using the above-mentioned FACTS devices. The simulation results demonstrate the performance of the system for each of the FACTS devices in improving the power profile and thereby voltage stability of the same. All simulations have been carried out in MATLAB/SIMULINK environment.
