Improvement of synchronizing power and damping power by means of SSSC and STATCOM: A comparative study

This paper examines the influence of Static Synchronous Series Compensator (SSSC) and STATic synchronous COMpensator (STATCOM) on the synchronizing power and damping power of a single-machine infinite bus system. The main function of SSSC is to compensate for the voltage drop across the impedance transmission line while the STATCOM provides voltage support at the point of connection at the transmission line. Beside their main function, SSSC and STATCOM can also be used to improve the synchronizing power and damping power, which in turns improve the small signal stability of power systems and thus more power can be transmitted. The SSSC has two modes of operation: (1) constant reactance mode and (2) constant quadrature voltage mode. It was shown that SSSC provides higher synchronizing and damping powers when operated in constant reactance mode than constant quadrature voltage mode. Comparing SSSC with STATCOM, the SSSC, in constant reactance mode, has been found to provide higher synchronizing and damping powers than the STATCOM. However, the STATCOM provides higher synchronizing and damping power than the SSSC when it operates on constant quadrature voltage mode.     

Performance Evaluation of Power Oscillation Damping Controller—Firefly Algorithm Based Parameter Tuning

This paper presents the performance evaluation of power oscillation damping controller based on firefly algorithm (FA) parameter tuning. The power system stabilizer (PSS), unified power flow controller (UPFC), and static synchronous series compensator (SSSC) are tuned with FA by minimizing integral time multiplied by absolute error (ITAE) as an objective function. An integrated multi-stage linear quadratic regulator – power oscillation damping UPFC/SSSC has been proposed with precise tuning of control parameters which results in overall states' oscillation damping as compared to other classical methods. It has been observed that the proposed control structure damps the oscillations adequately and is modular in design methodology. The sample power system comprising six areas has been considered to demonstrate the effectiveness of the concept. The software has been developed based on the proposed work by the authors and the MATLAB code has been generated in R2009b version. The states' inter-relation which has been shown with eigenvalues reflects a better regulation and the step response is also validated.     

一种新型的统一潮流控制器

为了提高电力系统稳定性,统一潮流控制器UPFC的并联和串联部分应分别位于电压下降、潮流变化最明显的地方。本文将统一潮流控制器的串联部分和并联部分分离并延长它两之间的距离,这使UPFC串联和并联部分安装在不同地点提供了可能。用PSCAD软件搭建一个新型的统一潮流控制器模型。仿真结果显示,新型UPFC具有同样的控制功能,尽管其传输容量稍小,但是新型UPFC串并联部分分离的结构特点,使工程上UPFC的安装问题上更具灵活性,具有广阔的应用前景。

Multi-Input Single Output SSSC based damping controller design by a hybrid Improved Differential Evolution-Pattern Search approach

In this paper, a hybrid Improved Differential Evolution and Pattern Search (hIDEPS) approach is proposed for the design of a PI-Type Multi-Input Single Output (MISO) Static Synchronous Series Compensator (SSSC) based damping controller. The improvement in Differential Evolution (DE) algorithm is introduced by a simple but effective scheme of changing two of its most important control parameters i.e. step size and crossover probability with an objective of achieving improved performance. Pattern Search (PS) is subsequently employed to fine tune the best solution provided by modified DE algorithm. The superiority of a proposed hIDEPS technique over DE and improved DE has also been demonstrated. At the outset, this concept is applied to a SSSC connected in a Single Machine Infinite Bus (SMIB) power system and then extended to a multi-machine power system. To show the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed design approach, simulation results are presented and compared with DE and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) optimized Single Input Single Output (SISO) SSSC based damping controllers. It is observed that the proposed approach yield superior damping performance compared to some approaches available in the literature.
