Optimal Location of FACTS devices are very important for the rapid and successful operation because of high cost and circuit complexities. In this paper best location of UPFC (Unified Power Flow Controller) is obtained both for static and transient voltage stability enhancement of an IEEE 14 bus power system. The simulation is done on PSAT (Power System Analysis Tool-box) in MATLAB and optimal ...

Congestion management (CM) is one of the most important and challenging tasks of the Independent System Operator (ISO) in the deregulated environment. Recently, Sen Transformer (ST) has emerged as an important power flow control device which has the capability of power flow control over a wide range like UPFC. This device with a conventional transformer and tap changers has the capability of bi...

The characteristics of the distance relay are devised based on online and fault impedance. uses information to react expected state; however, integrating grid with a unified power flow controller (UPFC) might stop from fault-triggered operations, requiring altered characteristics. Building tripping parameters among critical challenges that must be addressed for transmission line relays because ...

With increased power transfer, transient stability is increasingly important for secure operation. Transient stability evaluation of large scale power systems is an extremely intricate and highly non-linear problem. An important function of transient evaluation is to appraise the capability of the power system to withstand serious contingency in time, so that some emergencies or preventive cont...

A critical factor effecting power transmission systems today is power flow control. The increment of load variation in a power transmission system can lead to potential failure on the entire system as the system has to work under a stressed condition. Thus, the Flexible AC Transmission System (FACTS) are integrated in power system to control the power flow in specific lines and improve the secu...

This research article proposes a powerful fractional-order PI controller to mitigate the subsynchronous oscillations in turbine-generator shaft due to subsynchronous resonance (SSR) with flexible AC transmission system devices such as static synchronous compensator (STATCOM) and unified power flow controller (UPFC). The diminution of SSR is achieved by the raising of network damping at those fr...
