Improving Pacific Inter-tie Stability Using Existing Static VAR Compensators and Thyristor Controlled Series Compensation
نویسندگان
چکیده
The paper summarizes new control designs developed at Washington State University for the control of existing SVC’s, and TCSC owned by Bonneville Power Administration. The new controls are primarily aimed at improving transient stability of the WSCC western electric power system. The proposed controls are heuristic and are nonlinear. They are shown to be very effective in increasing the operating capability ratings of the California-Oregon pacific inter-tie under varied operating conditions.
