ABSTRACT In this paper, optimal power flow (OPF) model has been developed and analyzed with Thyristor Controed Series Compensator (TCSC) for practical power networks using Newtons optimization technique. The minimization of total system real power losses is an objective with controlling the power flow of specifled transmission lines. This model has considered the optimal settings generators, transformers and TCSC devices. In this paper, a sensitivity based approach has been proposed to decide optimal location of Thyristor Controlled Series Compensator (TCSC) and Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC).

CONCLUSTION This model is capable of solving power networks of any size and converges with minimum number of iterations and independent of initial conditions. the IEEE 30 bus systems have been used to demonstrate the proposed method over a wide range of power flow variations in the transmission system. It has also been observed that the proposed algorithm is efficient and suitable for better range of power control.

The following criterion can be effectively used for deciding the optimal locations of these controllers. The TCSC should be placed in a line-k having most positive sensitive index with respect to change in line reactance. The UPFC should be placed in a line-k having most negative sensitivity index with respect to change in Vs. The UPFC should be placed in a line-k having largest absolute value of the sensitivity factor with respect to s This paper provides a series of examples that illustrate the modeling of FACTS devices in power flow studies.

A number of power flow study programs were developed in order to model various types of FACTS devices This paper presents the application of one type of Flexible AC Transmission System (FACTS) device, the Thyristor Controlled Series Compensator (TCSC) to improve the transfer capability of a power system incorporating the reactive power flows in ATC calculations. A new method of power flow calculation considering FACTS devices is developed in the paper from a view of general approach of nonlinear system. The power flow equations of power system with FACTS devices are presented. This method can also be used when there are some other nonlinear devices in a system. Testing results show that this method costs less time in power flow calculation than other methods. A new and comprehensive load flow model for the unified

The standard IEEE 14-bus system is considered to illustrate the implementation of TCSC for ATC enhancement.

power flow controller (UPFC) is presented. The UPFC model is incorporated into an existing FACTS NewtonRaphson load flow algorithm. Critical comparisons are made against existing UPFC models, which show the newly developed model to be far more flexible and efficient. It can be set to control active and reactive powers and voltage magnitude simultaneously. Unlike existing UPFC models, it can be set to control one or more of these parameters in any combination or to control none of them. Limits checking and an effective control coordination between controlling devices are incorporated in the enhanced load flow program. The algorithm exhibits quadratic or near-quadratic convergence characteristics, regardless of the size of the network and the number of FACTS devices.

efficiency has been illustrated by numeric examples. An alternative UPFC model based on the concept of a synchronous voltage source was also developed and coded into the NR load flow program. It has been shown that caution has to be exercised with this model since it is based on the assumption that the shunt converter is operating at unity power factor. Numerical comparisons of both models have been presented. The results obtained indicate that the SVS model should only be used when the UPFC shunt converter is attached to an infinite busbar. Otherwise, the load flow solution will be incorrect. For cases in which no limit violations take place, identical results were achieved with the general Newton-Raphson UPFC model derived in Section 2 and the more restricted UPFC power flow model presented in [6]. The influence of the UPFC initial conditions on convergence was investigated. Improper selection of initial conditions degrades Newtons quadratic convergence, or more seriously, cause the solution to oscillate or even

diverge. A set of analytical equations has been derived to give good UPFC initial conditions.
