Optimal Location and Parameter Settings of UPFC Device in Transmission System based on Imperialistic Competitive Algorithm

Authors: not saved
Abstract:

In this paper, we present a new method to determine the optimal location and parameter settings of UnifiedPower Flow Controller (UPFC) for removing voltage violations and transmission lines overloading. UPFC isconsidered as the most powerful member of the FACTS devices, that it can control shunt and series power flow.This option gives to UPFC the power to control the voltage profile and transmission lines flow simultaneously.We used the Imperialistic Competitive Algorithm (ICA) to determine the optimal location and optimal parametersettings of UPFC to improve the performance of the power system specially removing voltage violations in thebuses and solving transmission lines overloading to increase loadability in the power networks. This procedureis proposed to be applied on IEEE 14 bus system to show the validity of the method.

Optimal Location of UPFC and Comparative Analysis of Maximum Loadability with FACTS in Competitive Electricity Markets

Flexible ac transmission systems (FACTS) controllers, which can effectively enhance the loadability of the network by controlling the power flows, must be placed optimally due to their high cost. This paper proposes a mixed integer based non-linear programming approach for optimal location of UPFC for system loadability enhancement in competitive electricity markets. The method accounts for ac ...
