Abstract:
Voltage regulation and reactive power compensation is one of the most challenging problem in the power systems. It may occur in transmission line of the power system. Due to that generation outages, sudden increase of load demand, or failure of equipment’s may happen, which will be rectified using Unified Power Flow Control (UPFC). In this project, minimize the optimization control by using Sinusoidal Pulse Width Modulation (SPWM), PI controller and Simulated Annealing (SA) technique is used to generate firing pulses for both the converters in UPFC. In this study simulations were performed on IEEE 14-bus. Results of simulations are encouraging and could efficiently be employed for power system operations.
Keywords:UPFC, SA, SPWM, Voltage Regulation, Reactive power compensation
