1.1 INTRODUCTION
In a three phase ac power system active and reactive power flows from the generating
station to the load through different networks buses and branches. The flow of active and
reactive power is called power flow or load flow. Power flow studies provide asystematic
mathematical approach for determination of various bus voltages, there phase angle active
and reactive power flows through different branches, generators and loads under steady
state condition. Power flow analysis is used to determine the steady state operating
condition of a power system. Power flow analysis is widely used by power distribution
professional during the planning and operation of power distribution system.

1.2 OBJECTIVE OF LOAD FLOW STUDY
A bus is a node at which one or many lines, one or many loads and generators are
connected. In a power system each node or bus is associated with 4 quantities, such as
magnitude of voltage, phage angle of voltage, active or true power and reactive power in
load flow problem two out of these 4 quantities are specified and remaining 2 are required
to be determined through the solution of equation. Depending on the quantities that have
been specified, the buses are classified into 3 categories.
8| P a g e
VARIABLES AND BUS CLASSIFICATION
Buses are classified according to which two out of the four variables are specified
Load bus: No generator is connected to the bus. At this bus the real and reactive
power are specified.it is desired to find out the volatage magnitude and phase angle
through load flow solutions.It is required to specify only Pd and Qd at such bus as at
a load bus voltage can be allowed to vary within the permissible values.
Slack (swing) bus: For the Slack Bus, it is assumed that the voltage magnitude |V|
and voltage phase Θ are known,whereas real and reactive powers Pg and Qg are
obtained through the load flow solution.

2.1 FLEXIBLE AC TRANSMISSION
Flexible transmission system is akin to high voltage dc and related thyristors developed
designed to overcome the limitations of the present mechanically controlled ac power
transmission system.
Use of high speed power electronics controllers, gives 5 oppertunities for increased
efficiency.
Flexible system requires tighter transmission control and efficient management of inter-
related parameters that constrains today’s system including –
This results in transmission line to operate near its thermal rating. Eg- a 1000kv line may
have loading limit 3000-4000Mw .but the thermal limit may be 5000Mw.

2.2 FACTS SYSTEM CONTROLLER
TYPES ATTRIBUTES
NGH- SSR Damper Damping of oscillation,series impedance
control, transient stability
SVC- Uses thyristor valves to rapidly add or remove shunt connected reactors and
or capacitors often in coordination with mechanically controlled reactors and/or
capacitors.
NGH-SSR damper- a resonance damper:- A thyristor ac-switch connected in
series with a small inductor and resistor across the series capacitor.
12| P a g e
Unified powercontrol :- In this concept an ac voltage vector generated by a
thyristor based inverter is injected in series with phase voltage.The driving dc
voltage for inverter is obtained by rectifying the ac to dc from the same transmission
line. In such an arrangement the injected voltage may have any phase angle
relationship to the phase voltage. It is possible to obtain a net phase and amplitude
voltage change that confers control of both active and reactive power.
Dynamic Brake :- A shunt connected resistive load, controlled by thyristor
switches. such a load can be selectively applied in each pass, half cycle by half cycle
to damp any specific power flow oscillation, so that generating unit run less risk of
losing synchronism ,as a result more can be transferred over systems subjected
to stability constraints.
A thyristor controlled resistor in parallel with the transmission line can be used effectively
to damp power swing oscillations in the transmission system.
FACT technology ensures power flow through prescribed routes, maximization of capacity,
securing loading capacity enhancement under various scenanious of uprating or upgrading
the lines thermal current capacity.
1. Load compensation
2. Voltage support.
Load compensation objectives are to increase the value of the system power factor to
balance the real power drawn from the ac supply,compensate voltage regulation and to
eliminate current harmonic components produced by large and fluctuating non –linear
industries loads.
Var compensation helps to maintain a substantially flat voltage profile at all levels of power
transmission improves HVDC conversion terminal performance increases transmission
efficiency ,controls steady state and temporary over-voltage and can avoid disastrous
blackout.
13| P a g e
Series and shunt VAR compensation are used to modify the natural electrical characteristic
of ac power system.series compensation modifies the transmission or distribution system
parameters while shunt compensation changes the equivalent impedance of the load.

PRINCIPLES OF REACTIVE
POWER COMPENSATION
15| P a g e
3.1 REACTIVE POWER
Power factor is defined as the ratio of real power to apparent power. This definition is
often mathematically represented as Kw/Kva ,where the numerator is the active (real)
power and the denominator is the (active+reactive) or the apparent power
= kW/(kW+kVAr)
The higher kVAr indicates low power factor and vice versa.
Power factor can be improved by adding consumers of reactive power in the system like
Capacitors or Synchronous Motors.
It can also be improved by fully loading induction motors and transformers and also by
using higher rpm machines. Usage of automatic tap changing system in transformers can
also help to maintain better power factor.
3.2 SHUNT COMPENSATION: By supplying reactive power near load, tension on lines ,
power losses minimizes and hence improving voltage regulation.

3.3 SERIES COMPENSATION:
Here capacitors are used to decrease the equivalent reactance of a power line at a rated
frequency.
18| P a g e
3.5 Advantages of TCR in FACT
1. Accuracy of compensation-Very good
2. Control flexibility-Very good
3. Reactive power capacity- Lagging or leading indirect
4. Control – Continuous
Tcr can be used as a better series compensator which is effective in load flow
control and short circuit limitations . It’s because of Tcr advantages another another
concept of Advanced Series Compensation of Tcr has been developed and
commercialized.Tcr consists of a fixed (mainly air core) reactor of inductance L and
a bidirectional thyristor value. The current in the reactor can be from maximum(
thyristor valve closed) to zero (thyristor valve open) by method of firing delay angle
control.It means that the closure of thyristor value is delayed wrt the peak of
applied voltage in each half cycle and thus the duration of current condution
intervals is controlled.A voltage ‘v’ is applied and ther eactor current is given by
𝑖𝑙 (𝛼) ,at zero angle delay (switch fully closed)and at an arbitrary angle ‘𝛼’ delay
angle.
TCSC is one of the most important and best known FACTS devices, which has been
in use for many years to increase line power transfer as well as to enhance system
stability. The TCSC consists of three main components: capacitor bank C, bypass
inductor L and bidirectional thyristors SCR1 and SCR2. The firing angles of the
thyristors are controlled to adjust the TCSC reactance in accordance with a system
control algorithm, normally in response to some system parameter variations. When
the thyristors are fired, the TCSC can be mathematically described as follows:

where iC and iL are the instantaneous values of the currents in the capacitor banks and
inductor, respectively; iS the instantaneous current of the controlled transmission line; v is
the instantaneous voltage across the TCSC.

4.2 STABILITY CONCEPT
Overview
The importance of power system stability is increasingly becoming one of the most limiting
factors for system performance. By the stability of a power system, we actually mean the
ability of the system to remain in operating equilibrium, or synchronism, while
disturbances occur on the system. There are three types of stability, namely, steady-state,
dynamic and transient stability.
Stability Definitions
In the study of electric power systems, several different types of stability descriptions are
encountered. There are three types of stability namely,
(1) Steady-state stability –It refers to the stability of a power system subject to small and
gradual changes in load, and the system remains stable with conventional excitation and
governor controls.
(2) Dynamic stability –It refers to the stability of a power system subject to a relatively
small and sudden disturbance, the system can be described by linear differential equations,
and the system can be stabilized by a linear and continuous supplementary stability
control.
(3) Transient stability –It refers to the stability of a power system subject to a sudden and
severe disturbance beyond the capability of the linear and continuous supplementary
stability control, and the system may lose its stability at the first swing unless a more
effective countermeasure is taken, usually of the discrete type, such as dynamic resistance
braking or fast valving for the electric energy surplus area, or load shedding for the electric
energy deficient area. For transient stability analysis and control design, the power system
must be described by nonlinear differential equations. Transient stability concerns with the
matter of maintaining synchronism among all generators when the power system is
suddenly subjected to severe disturbances such as faults or circuits caused by lightning
strikes, the sudden removal from the transmission system of a generator and/or a line, and
any severe shock to the system due to a switching operation. Because of the severity and
24| P a g e
suddenness of the disturbance, the analysis of transient stability is focused on the first few
seconds, or even the first few cycles, following the fault occurrence or switching operation.
First swing analysis is another name that is applied to transient stability studies, since
during the brief period following a severe disturbance the generator undergoes its first
transient overshoot, or swing. If the generator can get through it without losing
synchronism, it is said to be transient stable. On the other hand, if the generator loses its
synchronism and can not get through the first swing, it is said to be unstable. There is a
critical angle within which the fault must be cleared if the system is to remain stable. The
equal-area criterion is needed and can be used to understand the power system stability.
some simple figures can be utilized to graphically represent the difference between a stable
case and an unstable case. In a stable case, as shown in Figure below ,if the fault is cleared
at tc1 second, or at angle where the area Aa (area associated with acceleration of the
generator) equals the area Ad (area associated with deceleration of the generator). One
can see that the angle reaches its maximum at and never gets greater than this
value. In the unstable case, as shown in Figure, the fault is cleared at second with the
area Aa greater than the area Ad. Also, it is very clear that for an unstable case, with the
fault cleared at the angle keeps increasing and goes out-of-step, or unstable, as shown
in Figure below.

4.3 SWING EQUATION
The moment of inertia and the accelerating torque of a synchronous machine can be
related as follows
𝐽𝑑2 𝛿𝑚
= 𝑇𝑎
𝑑𝑡2
𝛿𝑚 = mechanical angle
The relationship between the mechanical angle and the electrical angle can be expressed
as
𝛿= = 𝑝𝛿𝑚 /2
𝑑 2𝛿
𝐽. 2. 𝑝𝑑𝑡 2 = 𝜔𝑠. 𝑇𝑎 = 𝑃𝑎
A commonly used constant,inertia constant H,is defined as the ratio between the stored
energy in watt-seconds and VA rating of the machine ,namely
1
H= 2 𝐽𝜔𝑠. /𝑆
It can be re-arranged as
2H𝑆 = 𝐽𝜔𝑠.
28| P a g e
One can relate this equation to the equation for the accelerating power 𝑃𝑎
𝐻 𝑑2 𝛿
2𝜔 𝑆. 2. = 𝑃𝑎
𝑠. 𝑝𝑑𝑡2
If one defines
𝜔0 = 𝑃𝜔𝑠. /2
𝐻 𝑑2 𝛿
2𝜔 . = 𝑃𝑎 /𝑆
0 𝑑𝑡2
Finally, the swing equation with the accelerating power in per unit value can be obtained as
follows
𝐻 𝑑2 𝛿
2𝜔 . = 𝑃𝑎 ,
0 𝑑𝑡2

Newton–Raphson method for power flow analysis :-
Problem statement:
The following 5 bus network was taken from G.W.Stagg & A.H.El-Abiad,computer
methods in power system analysis,1968 McGraw Hill.
The sequence of steps for solution of load flow problem using N-R method are explained as
follows:
Step1: Assume a suitable solution for all buses except slack bus. Assume 𝑉𝑃 =1+j0.0 for p=
1,2….n, p≠ s, 𝑉𝑠 = a+j0.0
Step 2: Convergence criterion is set to ∈ that means if the largest of absolute of the
residues exceed ∈ the process repeated else terminated.
Step 6: real and reactive powers 𝑃𝑝 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑄𝑝 are calculated respectively using equations
𝑛
𝑃𝑝 = 𝑞=1 𝑒𝑝 𝑒𝑞 𝐺𝑝𝑞 + 𝑓𝑝 𝐵𝑝𝑞 + 𝑓𝑝 (𝑓𝑞 𝐺𝑝𝑞 − 𝑒𝑞 𝐵𝑝𝑞 )
𝑛
𝑄𝑝 = 𝑞=1 𝑓𝑝 𝑒𝑞 𝐺𝑝𝑞 + 𝑓𝑞 𝐵𝑝𝑞 − 𝑒𝑝 (𝑓𝑞 𝐺𝑝𝑞 − 𝑒𝑞 𝐵𝑝𝑞 )
else if the value is within the limit ,the value is retained. If the limits are not violated
2
,voltage residue is evaluated as |∆𝑉𝑝 |2 =|𝑉𝑝 |2 𝑠𝑝𝑒𝑐 - 𝑉𝑝𝑘
33| P a g e
Step 10: bus count is incremented by 1,i.e p=p+1 and check if all buses have been
accounted else,go to step 5.
Step 12: If the largest of the absolute value of the residue is less than ∈ then go to step 17
Step 15: calculate new bus voltages 𝑒𝑝𝑘+1 = 𝑒𝑝𝑘 + ∆𝑒𝑝𝑘 and ∆𝑓𝑝𝑘 = 𝑓𝑝𝑘 + ∆𝑓𝑝𝑘 . Evaluate cos 𝛿
and sin 𝛿 for all voltages.
Step 17: Finally bus and line powers are evaluated and results printed.

THYRISTOR CONTROLLED
SERIES CAPACITOR
MODELLING SCHEME
44| P a g e
THYRISTOR CONTROLLED SERIES CAPACITOR MODELLING SCHEME
There are basically two reasons for wchich we opted to use tcsc for power flow
studies,they are-
2.Avoiding SSR : TCSC changes its apparent impedence (as the line current confronts) for
subsynchronous frequencies such that any subsynchronous resonance is avoided.
TCSC module consists of a fixed series capacitor (FC) in parallel with a thyristor controlled
reactor (TCR). The TCR is formed by a reactor in series with a bi-directional thyristor valve
that is fired with a phase angle α ranging between 90º and 180º with respect to the
capacitor voltage.
In a TCSC, two main operational blocks can be clearly identified:-
1) External control
2) Internal control
External control directly relies on measured systems variables to define the reference for
the internal control, which is usually the value of the controller reactance.
Internal control provide appropriate gate drive signals for the thyristor valve to produce
the desired compensating reactance.
Hence, the external control is the one that defines the functional operation of the controller
The external control may be comprised of different control loops depending on the control
objectives. Additional functions for stability improvement, such as damping controls, may
be included in the external control. In the diagram given below Xm is the stability control
modulation reactance value, as determined by the stability or dynamic control loop, and
Xeo denotes the TCSC steady state reactance. The sum of these two values yields X’m, which
is the final value of the reactance ordered by the external control block. This signal is put
through a first-order lag to represent the natural response of the device and the delay
introduced by the internal control, which yields the equivalent capacitive reactance Xe of
the TCSC. In this model, it is possible to directly represent some of the actual TCSC internal
45| P a g e
control blocks associated with the firing angle control, as opposed to just modeling them
with a first order lag function. Nevertheless, since the relationship between angle α and the
equivalent fundamental frequency impedance Xe is a unique-valued function ,the TCSC is
modeled here as a variable capacitive reactance within the operating region defined by the
limits imposed by the firing angle α. Thus, Xemin ≤ Xe ≤ Xemax, with Xemax = Xe(αmin) and
Xemin = Xe(180 deg) = XC, where XC is the reactance of the TCSC capacitor. The controller is
assumed to operate only in the capacitive region, i.e. αmin > α r, where α r corresponds to
the resonant point, as the inductive region associated with 90o < α < α r induces high
harmonics that cannot be properly modeled in stability studies.

CONCLUSION
The comparision of simulations of both the both the networks shows the TCSC controller
enhances stability of power system. From the transient analysis it is quiet clear that
electromechanical damping increases on using these controllers. For large interconnected
systems it is essential.
