Abstract

This paper presents transient stability and power flow models of thyristor controlled reactor (TCR) and voltage sourced inverter (VSI) based flexible AC transmission system (FACTS) controllers. Models of the static VAr compensator (SVC), the thyristor controlled series compensator (TCSC), the static VAr compensator (STATCOM), the static synchronous source series compensator (SSSC), and the unified power flow controller (UPFC) appropriate for voltage and angle stability studies are discussed in detail. Validation procedures obtained for a test system with a detailed as well as a simplified UPFC model are also presented and briefly discussed
