Low Voltage Ride Through

In recent years, grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) power generations have become the most extensively used energy resource among other types of renewable energies. Increasing integration of PV sources into the power network and their dynamic performances under fault conditions is an important issue for grid code requirements. In this paper, a PV source as a unified interphase power controller (UIPC) is used to enhance the low voltage ride through (LVRT) and transient stability of a multi-machine power system. The suggested PV-based UIPC consists of two series voltage inverters and a parallel inverter. The UIPC injects the required active and reactive power to prevent voltage drop under grid fault conditions. Accordingly, a dynamic control system is designed based on proportional-integral (PI) controllers for the PV-based UIPC to operate in both normal and fault conditions. Simulations are done using Matlab/Simulink software, and the performance of the PV-based UIPC is compared with the conventional unified power flow controller (UPFC). The results of this study indicate the more favorable impact of the PV-based UIPC on the system compared to UPFC in improving LVRT capabilities and transient stability.

Power Flow Controller

A Power System is actually a vast system that requires an outstanding plan for maintaining the continual flow of electricity. When a fault occurs at the power system, number of difficulties arises because of transients in system. so to attenuate these transients, power electronics based devices like FACTS are utilized. A unified power flow controller (UPFC) is one among different power electronics controller which can dispense VAR compensation, line impedance control and phase shifting. The thought is to see potential of UPFC to require care of active and reactive power movement within the compensated line (including UPFC) and to shrink the falloff of the bus voltage in case of grounding fault within the cable. power system block consisting of simulink is used for numerical analysis. Simulation outcomes from MATLAB reflects major improvement in the overall system’s behaviour with UPFC in sustain the voltage and power flow even under severe line faults by proper injection of series voltage into the cable at the point of connection. outcomes shows how the UPFC contributes effectively to a faster regaining of the power system to the pre-fault conditions.

The continuous increase in power demand and huge power losses in modern power systems have been a growing concern to power utilities. Such phenomenon often results in epileptic power supply, power system instability, supply fluctuations and security problems in many parts of the globe. Identification of suitable places for the installation of reactive power compensators to minimize voltage drop and system power losses in a power system becomes imperative. In this paper, the Newton-Raphson iterative method was used for the power flow solution of the 28 bus Nigerian 330KV grid system. The Generalized Unified Power flow Controller (GUPFC) is installed at identified weak load buses of the Nigerian 28-bus power system to reduce the losses and voltage drop of the system. A comparative analysis of the GUPFC with Load Tap Changing Transformers (LTCT) is also performed. Result obtained shows that the GUPFC can largely (effectively) improve the system power stability and selectively balance the power flow of multi-lines power flows when placed at identified weak buses compared with LTCT.  Thus, GUPFC can be used to reduce overall power losses along transmission lines as well as improve stability overall reliability of the power grid system.

In order to eliminate active and reactive power losses in the power system, this paper proposes TOPSIS and DE algorithm for determining the best location and parameter settings for the Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC). To mitigate power losses, the best UPFC allocation can be achieved by re-dispatching load flows in power systems. The cost of incorporating UPFC into the power system. As a consequence, the proposed objective feature in this paper was created to address this problem. The IEEE 14-bus and IEEE 30-bus systems were used as case studies in the MATLAB simulations. When compared to particle swarm optimization, the results show that DE is a simple to use, reliable, and efficient optimization technique than (PSO). The network's active and reactive power losses can be significantly reduced by putting UPFC in the optimum position determined by TOPSIS ranking method.

Assessment of PS safety is essential in society to expand customs to sustain system functions when one or more components fail. A PS is "secure" when it can defy loss of one or more ingredients & still go on working without major problems. The Contingency event investigation technique is taken to identify electrical node PF in faulty transmission lines (TL). The Performance of PS has been tested on IEEE 14-Bus System.

In order to analyze the control strategy of the low voltage ride through (LVRT) of DFIG during the asymmetric voltage sag, it is necessary to analyze the transient performance of a DFIG during the asymmetric voltage sag. In this paper, analyzed the influence of the asymmetric grid voltage to DFIG and the analysis method of the asymmetric voltage sag, and on the basis of positive and negative sequence mathematical model, analyzed the composition of stator output active and reactive power under the condition of asymmetric grid voltage. And built a DFIG asymmetric voltage drop simulation model of 1.5MW in MATLAB/Simulink, the simulation results shows that the stator voltage, current, active power and reactive power all present a double frequency ripple during the asymmetric voltage sag, consistent with theoretical analysis. It can provide theoretical basis for double-fed motor control strategy of asymmetric LVRT.
