Abstract:
The Unified Power Flow Controller is a versatile and important device for improving the operational efficiency of power systems in the flexible AC transmission systems family. It finds applications in improving voltage stability in addition to provide a better voltage profile and reducing transmission loss. This paper presents a Chemical Reaction Inspired Optimization based method for placement of unified power flow controllers with the objective of raising the voltage stability. Most of the existing methods place all the given unified power flow controllers without analysing whether each of the given unified power flow controllers is actually needed to improve voltage stability or other selected performances. The proposed method tries to place only the essential unified power flow controllers from the allocated number of devices, besides providing optimal line locations and unified power flow controller parameters. It also includes the results of the proposed method for three standard test systems and compares them with existing methods to depict the dominance of the proposed method.

Abstract:
One of the best flexible AC transmission system (FACTS) is unified power flow controller (UPFC). As it gets more benefit from both real and reactive power transfer, it is used in power system for controlling the transmitted power. The UPFC controls the power on the transmission side of the power system. When the real as well as reactive power is set the UPFC tries to follow the command by using the proportional and integral (PI) controller. But in some power systems the PI controllers cannot produce the proper power due to the power oscillations. These oscillations are created due to PI controller properties. In this paper the PI controller is replaced with the particle swarm optimization tuned PI controller (PSO-PI). It minimizes the power oscillations by using the objective function. The MATLAB 2017b is used to demonstrate the power transfer curves and the voltages. The IEEE 9 bus system is being used as a reference system.

Abstract:
This paper proposes a new unified power flow controller (UPFC) topology. A single phase of them system with the proposed topology consists of an N:2 transformer with a center tap at the low-voltage side and a power converter module comprising full- and half-bridge converters. A three-phase system can be implemented with three devices. While the conventional UPFC topology uses two three-phase transformers, which are called series and parallel transformers, the proposed topology utilizes three single-phase transformers to implement a three-phase UPFC system. By using an autotransformer structure, the power rating of the transformers and the voltage rating of switches in the power converter module can be significantly decreased. As a result, it is possible to reduce the installation spaces and costs compared with the conventional UPFC topology. In addition, by adopting a full- and half-bridge converter structure, the proposed topology can be easily implemented with conventional power devices and control techniques. The techniques used to control the proposed topology are described in this paper. The results obtained from simulations and experiments verify the effectiveness of the proposed UPFC topology.

Abstract:
As the latest generation of flexible AC transmission system (FACTS) devices, the unified power flow controller (UPFC) has comprehensive control capability and has played an important role in modern power systems. Research on UPFC steady-state power flow regulation capability is valuable for the design and operation of UPFC projects. To analyze the UPFC regulation capability, in this paper, the interaction between the UPFC and the external system is studied and the key factors of UPFC regulation capability are analyzed. It is demonstrated that the changes in the voltage magnitude and phase angle difference of UPFC-embedded line terminals will hinder the UPFC from regulating the power flow and decrease the UPFC regulation capability. Therefore, the UPFC power flow regulation capability is not only related to the parameters of the UPFC and its installation line, but also related to grid parameters. To analyze the UPFC active power flow regulation capability in practical power grids, the relationship between the UPFC regulation capability and grid parameters is deduced, and an estimation method is proposed to calculate the regulation range. Then, the estimation method is applied in the Chuxiong Power Grid and compared with power flow calculations. The results verify the UPFC power flow regulation characteristics given by the analysis and the effectiveness of the estimation method. Besides, it is shown that the estimation method can lower the requirements for the power flow calculation program, and reduce computation load.

Abstract:
The power consumption is rapid increased due to ASD (Adjustable Speed Drives) and automation in industries and large consumption of electricity in domestic regions increased the concern of the power quality. The quality of the power received in the Distribution system is altered because of the losses in the transmission system. The losses in the transmission system is mitigated using the FACTS (Flexible AC Transmission System)controller among these controllers UPFC (Unified Power Flow Controller) plays a vital role in controlling the shunt and series reactive powers in the bus of the power system. The conventional topology of the UPFC consists of AC-DC converter and energy stored in the DC link and DC-AC converter injected a voltage in series to the bus which as to be controlled. Whereas a new topology based on matrix converter can replace the dual converters and perform the required task. The construction of 2-bus, 7-bus and IEEE-14-bus power system is designed and modeled. MC-UPFC (Matrix Converter Based Unified Power Flow Controller) is designed and constructed. The MC-UPFC is the rich topology in the FACTS which is capable of controlling both the transmission parameters simultaneously with the switching technique of Direct power control by the smooth sliding control which gives less ripple in the injecting control parameters such as control voltage [Vc] and voltage angle [α]. By implementing MC-UPFC the real and reactive power can be controlled simultaneously and independently. The control techniques were designed based on the Proportional Integral derivative(PID) with sliding surface power control, FLC (Fuzzy Logic Controller) and ANN (Artificial Neural Network) and the performance of Vc and α of the controllers are investigated. Hence the sliding surface and relevant control switching state of the MC can be controlled by the FLC which gives the robust and autonomous decision making in the selection of the appropriate switching state for the effective real power control in the power system. The work has been carried out in the MATLAB Simulink simulator which gives the finest controlling features and simple design procedures and monitoring of the output.

Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC) device is applied to control power flow in transmission lines. Supplementary damping controller can be installed on any control channel of the UPFC inputs to implement the task of Power Oscillation Damping (POD) controller. In this paper, we have presented the simultaneous coordinated design of the multiple damping controllers between Power System Stabilizer (PSS) and UPFC-based POD or between different multiple UPFC-based POD controllers without PSS in a single-machine infinite-bus power system in order to identify the design that provided the most effective damping performance. The parameters of the damping controllers are optimized utilizing a Chaotic Particle Swarm Optimization (CPSO) algorithm based on eigenvalue objective function. The simulation results show that the coordinated design of the multiple damping controllers has high ability in damping oscillations compared to the individual damping controllers. Furthermore, the coordinated design of UPFC-based POD controllers demonstrates the superiority over the coordinated design of PSS and UPFC-based POD controllers for enhancing greatly the stability of the power system.

A fuzzy logic- (FL-) based control technique for unified power flow controller (UPFC) to resolve the power quality issues in transmission network is presented in this paper. MATLAB/Simulink is used to design the FL-based controllers for shunt and series converters of UPFC, which is validated on 4-bus system. In addition, the performance of the suggested FL-based UPFC is compared with PI (proportional integral), HC (hysteresis controller), MPC (model predictive controller), and FLC (fuzzy logic controller), and the outcomes are compared in terms of settling time and steady-state error. The consequences characterize that the higher enactment of closed loop hybrid power flow controller (HPFC) 4-bus system with FLC UPFC controller’s (FL based) robustness is ensured from the simulation results as it has overcome the power quality issues like reactive power compensation, voltage sag mitigation, and THD reduction of transmission line current below 5% as per IEEE standard. Settling time of CL FBS is abridged from 0.87 to 0.62 sec, and steady-state error of voltage in CL FBS is abridged from 0.9 to 0.1 V using FLC.

Abstract:
In this paper, the possibility of unified power flow controller (UPFC) to modulate both series resistance R and series reactance X of an overhead power line is discussed. The classical power flow control system of the UFPC is modified in the manner that standard input references signals (active and reactive powers) are replaced by reference signals of series resistance and reactance. Using the procedure described in this work, the reference signals for active and reactive powers are generated indirectly. The operation of UPFC in proposed operation mode is analyzed using computer simulation, based on a model of single machine infinite bus (SMIB) with constant impedance loads and two parallel lines. The goal is to show that UPFC is capable to control both series line parameters (R and X) directly and independently by means of a simple control system without additional decoupling controllers. An additional task is to show that power flows can be indirectly controlled this way. The step response of series line resistance and reactance is used to validate the operation of the proposed control system. The obtained results clearly show that all goals are fulfilled.

<p>In this paper, a new power flow controlling device called Distributed Power Flow Controller (DPFC) is presented that offers the same control capability as the unified power-flow controller (UPFC) but with much lower cost and high reliability. The DPFC eliminates the common DC link within the UPFC, to enable the independent operation of the shunt and the series converter. The D-FACTS concept is employed to the series converter to increase the reliability. Multiple low-rating single-phase converters replace the high-rating three-phase series converter, which significantly reduces the cost and increases the reliability. The active power that is exchanged through the common DC link in the UPFC is now transferred through the transmission line at the 3rd harmonic frequency. The DPFC is modeled in a rotating dq-frame. The modeling and analysis of DPFC in a two area two bus interconnected system is done in MATLAB/Simulink environment and comparison between the DPFC and UPFC considering the power flow and cost are also shown.</p><p> </p>

Abstract:
The characteristics of the distance relay are devised based on online and fault impedance. The relay uses fault information to react to the expected state; however, integrating the grid with a unified power flow controller (UPFC) might stop the relay from fault-triggered operations, requiring altered relay characteristics. Building relay tripping parameters are among the critical challenges that must be addressed for transmission line distance relays because current transmission networks face higher stress regarding power system operation. Furthermore, the use of flexible AC transmission systems (FACTS) instruments at the transmission level adversely affects distance relay performance due to impedance differences. The UPFC is among the essential FACTS instruments; it comprises shunt and series converters to alter the apparent relay impedance; hence, it was considered for this study, where a test system during fault was assessed to demonstrate the output of the distance relay before and after using the UPFC. MATLAB was used to build scenarios demonstrating the effect of a UPFC located in the transmission line's midsection or end or not using the UPFC. This research offers an analytical technique to determine the probable effects of UPFC on distance relay characteristics. The outcomes provide new relay characteristics for several fault resistances and locations for fault-specific impedance trajectory reactions.

Abstract:
The main objective of power flow control for unified power flow controller (UPFC) is to increase the transmission capacity over the existing transmission corridor or line. This paper presents a practical engineering methodology of embedding the power flow control model of UPFC into the commercial software -- power system analysis software package (PSASP) based on its user program interface (UPI) function. In the proposed methodology, the interface currents of UPFC series side and UPFC shunt side between the UPFC device and the network are used to control the transmission line power flow and UPFC bus voltage, respectively. In UPFC series side, the current of UPFC series branch is calculated from the power target equation of the controlled line. In UPFC shunt side, the shunt reactive current of UPFC is used to control the bus voltage. Simulation results on a practical power system show that the proposed methodology can be efficiently applied to the engineering research and analysis of the real power grid with UPFC with good convergence and only one control parameter needed to be prescribed.

Abstract:
Transmission line losses are a crucial and essential issue in stable power system operation. Numerous methodologies and techniques prevail for minimizing losses. Subsequently, Flexible Alternating Current Transmission Systems (FACTSs) efficiently reduce transmission losses, and the Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC) is a reactive power compensation controller. The parameter strength of the proportional–integral (PI) controller was calibrated with the Marine Predator Algorithm (MPA), a recent metaheuristic algorithm. An MPA-based optimum PI controller with a UPFC evaluates the optimal location of the UPFC and PI controller parameters to accomplish the desired research objective. The power rating of the UPFC was determined depending on the voltage collapse rating and power loss and an evaluated performance analysis of the MPA–PI-controlled UPFC on a modified IEEE-30 bus transmission network in MATLAB Simulink code. The Newton–Raphson method was used to perform the load flow analysis. Hence, the proposed MPA–PI controller was examined in contrast to preferred heuristic algorithms, the Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) and Moth Flame Optimization algorithms (MFO); the results showed that the MPA–PI controller exhibited better performance with an improved voltage profile and surpasses active power losses with the optimal placement of the UPFC device under different loading conditions. The active power loss, considering a UPFC with the proposed algorithm, reduced from 0.0622 p.u to 0.0301 p.u; consequently, the voltage profile was improved in the respective buses, and the loss percentage reduction during a 100% base load was 68.39%, which was comparatively better than the ABC and MFO algorithms.

In this paper, the optimal placement of Unified Power Flow Controllers (UPFC) in a large-scale transmission network in order to improve the loadability margin was considered. In other to achieve this aim, the Line Stability Factor (LQP) as a technique for the optimal location of UPFC in the IEEE 14-bus network and 56-bus Nigerian national grid was adopted. The power injection model for the UPFC was employed to secure improvements in the loading margin of the IEEE 14-bus network and 56-bus Nigerian national grid system. Continuation power flow was used to assess the effect of UPFC on the loadability margin. Steady-state simulations using Power System Analysis Toolbox (PSAT) on MATLAB was applied to determine the effectiveness of placing UPFC between bus 13 and bus 14 in the IEEE 14-bus network and between bus 44 (Ikot-Ekpene) and bus 56 (Odukpani) in the 56-bus Nigerian national grid system. The results showed that the loadability margin increased by 8.52 % after UPFC was optimally placed in the IEEE 14-bus network and increased by 195.5 % after UPFC was optimally placed in the 56-bus Nigerian national grid system. Thus, these enhance the voltage stability of both network and utilizing the network efficiently.

Latest unified power flow controller (UPFC) projects adopt novel device structures to meet the requirements of practical applications. Developing power flow calculation methods for these new UPFC structures is of great significance for the design and operation of related projects. To address this issue, this paper deduces an equivalent model of the general structure UPFC, and presents the modified power mismatch equations and Jacobian matrix of the system. Then, three power flow calculation methods suitable for the novel structure UPFC are proposed based on the Newton–Raphson algorithm. The main difference between the three methods is the processing method of UPFC equivalent power injections and the Jacobian matrix. The characteristics of these methods are compared by case studies. Results demonstrate the effectiveness of the three methods for different UPFC structures, and it is found that the improved method, which considers the impact of the Jacobian matrix modifications in UPFC equivalent power injections, can realize power flow calculation in existing calculation programs, and improve the convergence characteristics.

Abstract:
The building of additional transmission network to meet the demand of the ever-increasing load is expensive, and time consuming. An alternative to constructing new lines is the incorporation of the Flexible Alternating Current Transmission System (FACTS); in which a Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC) is a member of the ménage, which can be modelled as a combination of Static Var Compensator and Thyristor Control Series Compensator. This study determines the optimal location of the UPFC by randomly adding loads to the existing transmission network until the Fast Voltage Stability Index of one of the lines is at a critical point. This is the vital line in which UPFC components are added. The sizing of the components of the UPFC is determined using Artificial Bee Colony algorithm. The IEEE 30-bus network is exploited as the test bed. The results obtained reveal that the optimal positioning and sizing of the UPFC for the purpose of maximizing loadability of the grid when load angles are assumed to be negligible are the same as when the load angles are considered. The loadability of the test bed when UPFC is not injected in the grid is 440.376 MW, whereas, it is 837.915 MW when the UPFC is optimally located and sized; and this represents 90.27 %. The sizes of the shunt and series components of the UPFC that assist in realizing this maximization are -0.2780 pu and 0.1000 pu respectively.

In this work a novel modified flower pollination algorithm has been developed to solve the problem of single and multi-objective Optimal Power Flow operations for Unified power Flow Controller in Flexible Alternating Current Transmission Systems. In the proposed Adaptive Flower Pollination Algorithm the best initial solution can be chosen from the fittest and also the weights are adaptively adjusted to get better convergence characteristics. The nature of the objective functions is non-linear and difficult to get best possible solutions within the boundary conditions of total power demand. The weak nodes are determined in the system to locate the UPFC with Fuzzy approach considering input parameters as L-Index and voltage magnitudes. The projected method is validated using IEEE-30 and IEEE-57 bus systems for three objective functions, namely, system real power loss minimization, fuel cost minimization and the combination of total generating cost and system real power loss. Results of Fuzzy- Adaptive Flower Pollination Algorithm based OPF optimization for UPFC produced optimum results for the considered objectives of total fuel cost, real power loss and for the multiobjective.

The well-developed unified power flow controller (UPFC) has demonstrated its capability in providing voltage support and improving power system stability. The objective of this paper is to demonstrate the capability of the UPFC in mitigating oscillations in a wind farm integrated power system by employing eigenvalue analysis and dynamic time-domain simulation approaches. For this purpose, a power oscillation damping controller (PODC) of the UPFC is designed for damping oscillations caused by disturbances in a given interconnected power system, including the change in tie-line power, the changes of wind power outputs, and others. Simulations are carried out for two sample power systems, i.e., a four-machine system and an eight-machine system, for demonstration. Numerous eigenvalue analysis and dynamic time-domain simulation results confirm that the UPFC equipped with the designed PODC can effectively suppress oscillations of power systems under various disturbance scenarios.

Abstract:
<p>In this paper we presents a new component within the flexible ac-transmission system (FACTS) family, called Distributed Power-Flow Controller (DPFC). The DPFC is derived from the unified power-flow controller (UPFC). The DPFC can be considered as a UPFC with an eliminated common dc link. The active power exchange between the shunt and series converters, which is through the common dc link in the UPFC, is now through the transmission lines at the third-harmonic frequency. The DPFC employs the distributed FACTS (DFACTS) concept, which is to use multiple small-size single-phase converters instead of the one large-size three-phase series converter in the UPFC. The large number of series converters provides redundancy, thereby increasing the system reliability. As the D-FACTS converters are single-phase and floating with respect to the ground, there is no high-voltage isolation required between the phases. Accordingly, the cost of the DPFC system is lower than the UPFC. The DPFC has the same control capability as the UPFC, which comprises the adjustment of the line impedance, the transmission angle, and the bus voltage. The controller is designed to achieve the most appropriate operating point based on the real power priority.</p>

Abstract:
Abstract In recent years, the use of wind energy to generate electricity in the world has been accelerating and growing. Wind farms are unstable when dynamic voltage fluctuations occur, especially sudden and sudden changes in load, and show oscillating performance at their output. In this paper, the Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC) has been simulated and studied by Matlab software to improve the dynamic stability and transient behavior of the wind power plant in the event of sudden load changes. The simulation results show that by controlling the UPFC series inverter, voltage fluctuations in the PCC bus are prevented and the UPFC parallel inverter injects power after changing the load for faster recovery and stability of the PCC bus voltage and thus the stability of the wind farm. The UPFC can control the active and reactive power at the transmission line, and in fact, controls the output of the wind turbine with the generator from both sides to the fluctuations caused by sudden load changes that play a role such as sudden disturbances and oscillating errors. Also, the presence of UPFC in the system reduces power fluctuations.

Abstract:
The rising power demand has forced power systems all over the world to operate very close to their stability limits. When power systems are overloaded, faulty, or in lack of reactive power, voltage collapses would ensue. The capacity of a power system to keep the voltage of every bus constant under disturbances is called voltage stability. This dynamic phenomenon hinges on the load features. It is commonly known that flexible AC transmission systems (FACTS) can improve voltage stability. This paper puts forward a load flow model with the unified power flow controller (UPFC), and relies on the model to investigate the voltage stability of a power system through continuation power flow (CPF) method. The validity of the model was verified through a simulation, using the power system analysis toolbox (PSAT) in MATLAB/Simulink environment.
