In this paper, the series converters of Distributed Power Flow Controller are the main object of study. Its mechanism of suppressing power system oscillations is studied by theoretical analysis and formula derivation, which relies on a single-machine infinite-bus power system, installed the series converters. Then based on the mechanism, adopting the classic PI control and the damping controller, designed the transient stability control loop for the series converters. Finally, simulations performed by PSCAD/EMTDC, the results show that DPFC device can effectively suppress oscillation and improve system stability.

Power engineers are currently facing challenges to increase the power transfer capabilities of existing transmission system. Flexible AC Transmission system (FACTS) controllers can balance the power flow and thereby use the existing power system network most efficiently. Because of their fast response, FACTS controllers can also improve the stability of an electrical power system by helping critically disturbed generators to give away the excess energy gained through the acceleration during fault. Thyristor controlled series compensator (TCSC) is an important device in FACTS family, and is widely recognized as an effective and economical means to solve the power system stability problem. TCSC is used as series compensator in transmission system. In the present work a TCSC controller is designed and tested over a single machine infinite bus (SMIB) as well as a multi-machine power system. Detailed simulation studies are carried out with MATLAB/SIMULINK environment and the effect of the TCSC parameter variations over the system stability is studied.

After the August 14, 2003 blackout, power system stability probelm has received a great deal of attention. This project is focused on the analysis of transient stability following disturbances. The project investigates three generator-excitation techniques for controlling the stability of power system. They are the manual control (constant excitation voltage), the automatic voltage regulator (AVR), and the automatic voltage regulator plus the power system stabilizer (PSS) that basically can be a led-leg compensator using a rotor speed deviation as an input feedback. This project carried out a computer simulation study of the power system stability for various disturbances conditions. The simulation results from the project have shown that AVR coupled PSS generator-excitation control can achieve the best power system stability, comparing to the manual or AVR control. A major contribution of this project is that a computer platform using MatLab/Simulink software was designed and can be used by other researchers for the power system stability study.

Power system is often vulnerable to low frequency electromechanical oscillations due to the interconnected configuration. A common lead-lag controller is used for one of the FACTS devices known as Thyristor Controlled Series Compensator (TCSC) as supplementary controller for damping purpose in order to improve transient stability and power oscillation damping of the system. As Bees Algorithm (BA) optimized the parameters of the TCSC lead-lag controller, thus its named is TCSC-BALL. In this study, the optimization problem is formulated as a constrained optimization with the main objective is to move the system eigenvalues to the left as far as possible in order to improve the system stability. Then, the system is simulated in MATLAB by using The Phillips-Heffron model for single machine infinite bus (SMIB) with responses of increases in mechanical power at t=1 second. The performance is observed in terms of electromechanical eigenvalues position on s-plane and damping responses of low-frequency oscillations where the system implemented with the TCSC-BALL controller given better results as compared to the system without and with the inclusion of conventional Power System Stabilizer (CPSS).
