Application of SVC for Electromechanical Oscillation Damping Improvement in Multi-Machine Power System
Author:
Abstract: SVC (Static Var Compensator) is the most popular and widely used FACTS (Flexible AC Transmission System) device. This device has the ability to provide dynamic shunt compensation, and therefore, it is usually used for continuously regulating power flow and voltage stabilization. However, by adding a suitable supplementary controller, the device can also be used for system electromechanical oscillation damping improvement. The research reported in this paper investigates the application of SVC in improving system oscillation damping and stability of interconnected multi-machine electric power system. Verification using eigenvalues analysis and time-domain simulations confirm the capability of the device in providing better system damping and stability.
