Abstract

A nonlinear control approach is applied to static synchronous compensator (STATCOM), which is one of the FACTS devices. Here, the nonlinear controller is designed locally based on mathematical models of one of the generators, STATCOM and transmission lines in a multi-machine system. The influence of the proposed controller, which controls the terminal voltage of STATCOM, on the power system stability is tested by digital dynamic simulations. As a result of the simulation, it has been made clear that the STATCOM can improve the transient stability in the 3-machine loop system. In the case of the IEEJ West 10-machine system, the effectiveness is also discussed.
