<p>This paper presents the ability of the fuzzy logic-based stabilizer used to generate the supplementary voltage control signal of the SVC to improve the damping of the inter-area mode oscillation in the power system. The base system is symmetrical, consisting of two identical areas connected by a relatively weak tie line. The SVC is chosen to be installed at the tie line midpoint. The active power of the local line will be used as an input signal for the stabilizer. The additional signal is calculated using fuzzy membership function to determine the quantity of reactive power supplied absorbed by SVC. The system oscillation is indicated by a 3-phase-to-ground short circuit occurring at 0.2s of the simulation and subsequently clearing after 100ms. Simulation with the sample power system shows that when subjected to a disturbance, fuzzy logic-based SVC stabilizer provides good damping in inter-area mode oscillation for the system. The effectiveness of the stabilizer applied with and without PSS will also be investigated.</p>

The stability of a power system is the ability of a power system to restore an operating state of equilibrium for a given initial operating condition after it has been subjected to a physical disturbance, most of the variables of the system being limited so that almost the entire system remains intact. To create a MATLAB SIMULINK model of odd shore wind energy system having power being transmitted through DC transmission system. The first model will have no power flow controller and second model will have artificial intelligence based controlling technique. To design a controller for enhancing the power output from the wind energy system using UPFC. This will be made to feed DC transmission system. Finally integrating the system with long distance DC transmission system and then to the grid so as to make it more reliable and efficient. In this work a coordinated control based on Fuzzy logic for UPFC for cluster of offshore WPP connected to the same HVDC connection is being implemented and analyzed. The study is targeting coordination of reactive power flow and active power flow between HVDC Converter and the WPP cluster while providing offshore AC grid voltage control. Thus it can be drawn from this work that while designing a power control strategy the proposed fuzzy logic based active power controller in UPFC can serve the purpose with better results in terms of active as well as reactive power. This control can also be used in hybrid systems thus making it more reliable controlling method. The

Frequency control is becoming increasingly critical today due to the growing size and changing structure of complex interconnected power networks. Scaling up economic pressures for efficiency and reliability of the power system has necessitated a requirement for maintaining system frequency, and tie-line power flows as close as possible to scheduled values. High-frequency deviations may degrade load performance, damage equipment, resulting in overloading of transmission lines, which may interfere with system protection schemes, and, finally, may also result in an unstable condition of the power system. More so, Load Frequency Control ( LFC) plays a vital role in the modern power system as an auxiliary service to support power exchanges and, at the same time, to provide better conditions for the trading of electricity. Therefore, the tuning of the dynamic controller (i.e., net frequency and net power interchange errors) is a significant factor in achieving optimum LFC performance. Appropriate tuning of the controller parameters is required in order to achieve excellent control action. In view of this, this paper introduces the dynamic tuning of controller parameters in a two-area multi-source power system with an AC-DC parallel tie line for optimum load-frequency control performance. Matlab/Simulink software is used to realize the system simulation. System dynamic performance is observed for conventional PID tuning by the Ziegler Nichols method and the Kitamori method, fuzzy logic controllers, fuzzy-logic PID controllers, fuzzy PID controllers, and polar-Fuzzy controllers. Furthermore, the frequency and tie-line power response of the interconnected areas were compared based on the setting-time, peak-overshoot, and peak-undershoot. The simulation results show that the responses of the fuzzy-based controllers are faster than those of the classical controllers, resulting in minimized frequency and tie-line power deviations.

Meeting increasing demand for the electrical power without changing the existing infrastructure is a challenging issue. The transmission and the distribution are always struggling with losses in our ac power system networks. In this research an intelligent fuzzy logic approach is to be used for power system operation and control in distribution management. The VAR compensating devices like OLTC, SVC are to be controlled by the fuzzy expert system for modifying reactive power. The fuzzy membership functions, fuzzy rules are to be displayed. A co-ordination control between these VAR compensating devices using fuzzy logic control is to be discussed. An optimum location and the proper design of a capacitor banks for reducing the harmonic injection in the power system is to be suggested. The validity of this approach is to be given by the comparison graphs. All the simulations are to be carried out by MATLAB software. This research will investigate the effects of arising problems in an ac power system distribution without changing the existing infra structure. The various types of problems arising in a power system are to be listed. Among these the voltage stability in the buses has got the top priority. The solutions for reducing the power congestion created by these arising problems can be carried out.

A good electrical power system is a system that can serve the load in a sustainable and stable voltage and frequency. Changes in frequency occur due to the demand of loads that change from time to time. The frequency setting of the PLTG power system depends on the active power charge in the system. This active power setting is done by adjusting the magnitude of the generator drive coupling. The frequency setting is done by increasing and decreasing the amount of primary energy (fuel) and carried on the governor. Simulation in governor analysis study as load frequency control at PLTG using fuzzy logic controller is done by giving four types of cultivation that is 0,1 pu, 0,2pu, 0,3 pu and 0,4 pu. The simulation is done to compare the dynamic frequency response output and the resulting stability time using fuzzy logic controller with PI controller. Based on the results of comparative analysis conducted to prove that governor as load frequency control using fuzzy logic control is better than using PI controller. This can be seen from the output response frequency and time stability.

Power-flow studies are of great significance in planning and designing the future expansion of power systems as well as in determining the best operation of existing systems. Technologies such as renewables and power electronics are aiding in power conversion and control, thus making the power system massive, complex, and dynamic. HVDC is being preferred due to limitations in HVAC such as reactive power loss, stability, current carrying capacity, operation and control. The HVDC system is being used for bulk power transmission over long distances with minimum losses using overhead transmission lines or submarine cable crossings. Recent years have witnessed an unprecedented growth in the number of the HVDC projects. Due to the vast size and inaccessibility of transmission systems, real time testing can prove to be difficult. Thus analyzing power system stability through computer modeling and simulation proves to be a viable solution in this case. The motivation of this project is to construct and analyze the load flow and short circuit behavior in an IEEE 14 bus power system with DC link using MATLAB software. This involves determining the parameters for converter transformer, rectifier, inverter and DC cable for modelling the DC link. The line chosen for incorporation of DC link is a weak bus. This project gives the results of load flow and along with comparison of reactive power flow, system losses, voltage in an AC and an AC-DC system.

Power system analyses and monitoring of power system engineering are as essential as oxygen for human beings. This innovative approach deals with a 132 kV grid simulation in electrical transient analyzer program (ETAP). The existing power distribution system in Pakistan consists of approximately six thousand 11 kV feeders, which are mainly analyzed by software FDR-ANA (Feeder Analyses). This software does not have capability to provide comprehensive analyses for integrated power system. The case under study is 132 kV grid situated in Gujranwala electric power company (GEPCO), one of the distribution companies (DISCO’s) of Pakistan electric power company (PEPCO) which has been selected for comprehensive analyses using ETAP software. This software performs numerical calculations of large integrated power system with fabulous speed, besides generating output reports. In a developing country like Pakistan it is first time that analyses based Off-line monitoring has been made, which includes load flow, harmonic, transient, short circuit and ground grid analyses. In load flow analysis, current flowing in every branch, power factor, active and reactive power flow, line losses, voltage magnitude with angle etc. have been calculated. During harmonic analysis, distorted current and voltage waveforms along with their harmonic spectrum caused by non-linear loads have been recorded. Transient analysis has been performed to record different waveforms like variation in bus frequency, bus real power loading, bus voltage angle, and bus reactive power loading for short interval of time during transient conditions. In ground grid modeling, step, and touch potentials have been calculated in comparison with set standards. While performing short circuit analysis, all the possible short circuit faults like line to ground, double line to ground, 3-phase faults etc. on ½ cycle, 1.5 to 4 cycle, and 30 cycle networks have been performed to record the short circuit currents. These analyses have been executed using ETAP software, based upon historical data obtained from original system that will be very helpful for system security and reliability.

Installing a synchronous condenser (SC) onto an electricity grid can assist in the areas of reactive power needs, short-circuit strength, and, consequently, system inertia and guarantees better dynamic voltage recovery. This paper summarizes the practical potential of the synchronous condenser coordinated in an electric-power network with participating wind plants to supply reactive power compensation and injection of active power at their point of common coupling; it provides a systematic assessment method for simulating and analyzing the anticipated effects of the synchronous condenser on a power network with participating wind plants. A 33-kV power line has been used as a case study. The results indicate that the effect of the adopted synchronous condenser solution model in the MATLAB/Simulink environment provides reactive power, enhances voltage stability, and minimizes power losses, while the wind power plants provide active power support with given practical grid rules.
