Demystifies FACTS controllers, offering solutions to powercontrol and power flow problems
Flexible alternating current transmission systems (FACTS)controllers represent one of the most important technologicaladvances in recent years, both enhancing controllability andincreasing power transfer capacity of electric power transmissionnetworks. This timely publication serves as an applications manual,offering readers clear instructions on how to model, design, build,evaluate, and install FACTS controllers. Authors Kalyan Sen and MeyLing Sen share their two decades of experience in FACTS controllerresearch and implementation, including their own pioneering FACTSdesign breakthroughs.
Readers gain a solid foundation in all aspects of FACTScontrollers, including:
* Basic underlying theories
* Step-by-step evolution of FACTS controller development
* Guidelines for selecting the right FACTS controller
* Sample computer simulations in EMTP programming language
* Key differences in modeling such FACTS controllers as thevoltage regulating transformer, phase angle regulator, and unifiedpower flow controller
* Modeling techniques and control implementations for the threebasic VSC-based FACTS controllers--STATCOM, SSSC, and UPFC
In addition, the book describes a new type of FACTS controller,the Sen Transformer, which is based on technology developed by theauthors. An appendix presents all the sample models that arediscussed in the book, and the accompanying FTP site offers manymore downloadable sample models as well as the full-colorphotographs that appear throughout the book.
This book is essential reading for practitioners and students ofpower engineering around the world, offering viable solutions tothe increasing problems of grid congestion and power flowlimitations in electric power transmission systems.
