Damping Power System Oscillations Using a Hybrid Series Capacitive Compensation Scheme

Damping Power System Oscillations Using a Hybrid Series Capacitive Compensation Scheme

ABSTRACT:

The recently proposed phase imbalanced series capacitive compensation concept has been shown to be effective in enhancing power system dynamics as it has the potential of damping power swing as well as sub synchronous resonance oscillations. In this paper, the effectiveness of a “hybrid” series capacitive compensation scheme in damping power system oscillations is evaluated. A hybrid scheme is a series capacitive compensation scheme, where two phases are compensated by fixed series capacitor (C) and the third phase is compensated by a TCSC in series with a fixed capacitor (Cc). The effectiveness of the scheme in damping power system oscillations for various network conditions, namely different system faults and tie-line power flows is evaluated using the EMTP-RV time simulation program.

CONCLUSION:

The paper presents the application of a new hybrid series capacitive compensation scheme in damping power system oscillations. The effectiveness of the presented scheme in damping these oscillations is demonstrated through several digital computer simulations of case studies on a test
benchmark. The presented hybrid series capacitive compensation scheme is feasible, technically sound, and has an industrial application potential.
