Flexible Alternating Current Transmission

Flexible alternating current transmission systems are used since nearly four decades and present very good dynamic performances. The purpose of this work is to study the behaviour of a system where static compensator (STATCOM) is located at the midpoint of a long transmission line functioning in disturbed modes with various levels of load caused by tripping and then, reclosing of the incoming station breaker. The studied model and starting from the analysis of various alternatives will lead to the checking of the aptitude of the STATCOM to maintain the voltage plan and to improve the power flow in electro-energetic system which is the east region of Algerian 400 kV transmission network. The steady state performance of STATCOM’s controller is analysed through computer simulations with MATLAB/Simulink program. The simulation results have demonstrated that STATCOM can be effectively applied in power transmission systems to solve the problems of poor dynamic performance and voltage regulation.   Keywords: STATCOM, reactive power, power flow, voltage plan, breaker automatic recloser.

Reactive Power Compensator

The work presented in this paper is a contribution to the problem of controlling the reactive powers and the voltages in an electrical network. Among these control tools, the static reactive power compensator (SVC) has been chosen because of its simplicity of control. The SVC is among the FACTS 'Alternative Flexible Current Transmission Systems' devices that help to deal with problems encountered in the operation of electrical networks either in the distribution side or in the transport side. In this work, the SVC is used to control the reactive power and the voltage in an electric power transmission network. In order to improve its efficiency, three voltage regulation systems have been chosen in the control system of this compensator.

The distribution of electricity has become a challenge as there are losses associated with its distribution and transmission. In reducing such losses employment of Distributed Generation units in the transmission network can benefit greatly. Thus, the concern is on the optimal placement of Distributed Generation units that can provide maximum benefits and optimize several conflicting attributes. In this paper, the emphasis is laid on determining an optimal location for the placement of a Distributed Generation unit under conflicting attributes such as losses, real and reactive power, and voltages at different buses. For this purpose, the Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to best Solution a Multi-Criteria Decision-Making technique, and Fuzzy TOPSIS technique have been employed for determining the optimal placement of 10 MW Distributed Generation unit at the IEEE 20 Bus System. The results obtained can significantly benefit in reducing losses and greatly help in economical perspective as well.

The issues of increasing the efficiency of electricity transmission to consumers with different nature of their load are considered. The dependence of the efficiency of the electric network of the oil field, consisting of a power line and a step-down transformer, on the total load power at various ratios between the active and reactive components of the power is analyzed, and the conditions under which the maximum transmission efficiency can be ensured are determined. It is shown by examples that the power transmission efficiency depends not only on the active load, but also largely on its reactive load. In the presence of a constant reactive load and an increase in active load, the total power increases and the power transmission efficiency decreases. In the low-load mode, the schedule for changing the power transmission efficiency approaches a parabolic form, since the influence of the active load on the amount of active power loss decreases, and their value will mainly depend on reactive load, which remains unchanged. The efficiency reaches its maximum value provided that the active and reactive components of the power are equal. In the case of a different ratio between them, the efficiency decreases. With a simultaneous increase in active and reactive loads and a constant value of the power factor, the power transmission efficiency is significantly reduced due to an increase in losses. With a constant active load and an increase in reactive load, efficiency of power transmission decreases, since with an increase in reactive load, losses of active power increase, while the active power remains unchanged. The second condition, under which the line efficiency will be maximum, is full compensation of reactive power.  Therefore, in order to increase the efficiency of power transmission, it is necessary to compensate for the reactive load, which can reduce the loss of electricity and the cost of its payment and improve the quality of electricity. Other methods are also proposed to increase the efficiency of power transmission by regulating the voltage level in the power center, reducing the equivalent resistance of the line wires, optimizing the loading of the transformers of the step-down substations and ensuring the economic modes of their operation.
