EMERGING FACTS CONTROLLERS

SVC
A basic TCSC module
TCSC CONTROLLER
A typical TCSC system.
It is a solid-state switching converter, capable of generating or
absorbing independently controllable real and reactive power at its
output terminals when it is fed from an energy source.
STATCOM is considered as voltage-source converter that, from a
given input of dc voltage, produces a set of 3-phase ac-output
voltages, each in phase with and coupled to the corresponding ac
system voltage through a relatively small reactance
STATCOM - Static Synchronous Compensator
STATCOM can improves
1. the dynamic voltage control in transmission and distribution
systems;
2. the power-oscillation damping in power-transmission
systems;
3. the transient stability;
4. the voltage flicker control; and
5. the control of not only reactive power but also (if needed)
active power in the connected line, requiring a dc energy
source.
STATCOM structure
1. it occupies a small footprint,
2. it factory-built equipment, thereby reducing site work and
commissioning time;
3. it uses encapsulated electronic converters, thereby minimizing its
environmental impact.
A STATCOM is similar to an ideal synchronous machine, which
generates a balanced set of three sinusoidal voltages—at the
fundamental frequency—with controllable amplitude and phase angle.
STATCOM power circuit
Reactive Power Generation
Magnitude Es>Et  Generates reactive power
Magnitude Es<Et  Absorbs reactive power
If the amplitude of the output voltage is increased above that of the utility
bus voltage, Et, then a current flows through the reactance from the
converter to the ac system and the converter generates capacitive-
reactive power for the ac system.
If the amplitude of the output voltage is decreased below the utility bus
voltage, then the current flows from the ac system to the converter and
the converter absorbs inductive-reactive power from the ac system.
If the output voltage equals the ac system voltage, the reactive-power
exchange becomes zero, in which case the STATCOM is said to be in a
floating state.
In reactive power generation, the real power provided by the dc source as
input to the converter must be zero. The primary need for the capacitor is
to provide a circulating-current path as well as a voltage source.
When supplying/absorbing Reactive Power
In practice, the semiconductor switches of the converter are not
lossless, so the energy stored in the dc capacitor is eventually used to
meet the internal losses of the converter, and the dc capacitor voltage
diminishes.
Hence by making the output voltages of the converter lag behind the
ac-system voltages by a small angle (usually in the 0.1–0.2 degree
range), the converter absorbs a small amount of real power from the
ac system to meet its internal losses and keep the capacitor voltage at
the desired level.
STATCOM power circuit with energy storage
Real Power Generation
Phase Es leads Et  Generates real power
Phase Es lags Et  Absorbs real power
Adjusting the phase shift between the converter-output voltage and
the ac system voltage can similarly control real-power exchange
between the converter and the ac system.
If the converter-output voltage is made to lead the ac-system
voltage, then the converter can supply real power to the ac system
from its dc energy storage.
If its voltage lags behind the ac-system voltage, then the it absorb
real power from the ac system for the dc system
When supplying/absorbing Real Power
STATCOM can supply both the capacitive and the inductive compensation and
is able to independently control its output current over the rated maximum
capacitive or inductive range irrespective of the amount of ac-system voltage.
That is, the STATCOM can provide full capacitive-reactive power at any system
voltage—even as low as 0.15 pu.

The characteristic of a STATCOM reveals another strength of this technology:
 It is capable of yielding the full output of capacitive generation almost
independently of the system voltage.
 Hence it supports the system voltage during and after faults where voltage
collapse would otherwise be a limiting factor.
The maximum attainable transient overcurrent in the capacitive region is
determined by the maximum current turn-off capability of the converter switches.
In the inductive region, the converter switches are naturally commutated;
Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC)
Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC):
A combination of static synchronous compensator (STATCOM) and
a static series compensator (SSSC) which are coupled via a common dc
link, to allow bidirectional flow of real/reactive power between the series
output terminals of the SSSC and the shunt output terminals of the
STATCOM.

STATCOM Operation
Reactive Power Generation
Magnitude Es>Et  Generates reactive power
Magnitude Es<Et  Absorbs reactive power
Real Power Generation
Phase Es leads Et  Generates real power
Phase Es lags Et  Absorbs real power
SSSC Operation
If the injected voltage is in phase with
the line current, then the voltage would
exchange real power.
On the other hand, if a voltage is
injected in quadrature with the line
current, then reactive power—either
absorbed or generated—would be
exchanged.

Operation of UPFC
One VSC—converter 1—is connected in shunt with the line through
a coupling transformer; the other VSC—converter 2—is inserted in
series with the transmission line through an interface transformer.
The dc voltage for both converters is provided by a common
capacitor bank.
The series converter is controlled to inject a voltage phasor, Vpq, in
series with the line. Thereby the series converter exchanges both
real and reactive power with the transmission line.
The reactive power is internally generated/ absorbed by the series
converter, the real-power generation.
The shunt-connected converter 1 is used mainly to supply the real-
power demand of converter 2, which it derives from the transmission
line

All three foregoing power-flow control functions
The controller of the UPFC can select either one or a combination of the
three functions as its control objective, depending on the system
equirements.
The UPFC operates with constraints on the following variables:
1. the series-injected voltage magnitude;
2. the line current through series converter;
3. the shunt-converter current;
4. the minimum line-side voltage of the UPFC;
5. the maximum line-side voltage of the UPFC; and
6. the real-power transfer between the series converter and the shunt
converter

Reactive Power Control Mode
 Reference inputs are used to generate inductive and capacitive
VAR request
 Shunt converter control converts the VAR reference into the
corresponding shunt current request by adjusting the gate pulse of
the converter.
Automatic Voltage control mode
 Uses feed back signal v1
 Shunt converter reactive current is automatically regulated to maintain
transmission line voltage to reference value at the point of connection.
Direct Voltage Injection Mode
Simply generates Vpq with magnitude and phase angle requested
By reference input.
Vpq in phase with V  voltage magnitude control
Vpq quadrature with V  real power control
Bus Voltage Regulation Mode
Vpq is kept in phase with v1 angle, its magnitude is controlled to maintain
the magnitude output bus voltage v2 at the given reference value.
Phase Angle Regulation Mode
Vpq is controlled w.r.t voltage magnitude v1. Hence v2 is phase shifted
without any magnitude change relative to the angle specified by the
vi reference value.
Automatic Power Flow Control Mode
Magnitude and angle of Vpq is controlled so as to force a line
current, that results in desired real and reactive power flow in the
line.
Vpq is determined automatically and continously by closed loop
control system to ensure desired P and Q.

Having the UPFC losses neglected,
Here, it is assumed that QCONV1 = 0. Consequently, the UPFC injection
model is constructed from series connected voltage source model with
the addition of power equivalent to PCONV 1 + j0 to node i.
