TY - JOUR AU - Kumkratug, Prechanon PY - 2011 TI - Coordination of Series and Shunt Flexible Alternating Current Transmission Line System Devices Based Thyristor Controller for Improving Power System Stability JF - American Journal of Applied Sciences VL - 8 IS - 4 DO - 10.3844/ajassp.2011.355.358 UR - https://thescipub.com/abstract/ajassp.2011.355.358 AB - Problem statement: Thyristor Controlled Series Capacitor (TCSC) and Static Var Compensator (SVC) have been individually applied to improve stability of power system. Approach: This study presents the coordination of a TCSC and SVC for improving power system stability. The swing curves of the three phase faulted power system with various cases are tested and compared. Results: The swing curve of system without FACTS devices has undamped oscillation. The system with a TCSC or a SVC can increase damping of power system whereas the system with coordination of a TCSC and a SVC provides the best results of stability improvement Conclusion: From the simulation results, the stability of power system can be much better improved by coordination control of a TCSC and a SVC.
