2. 1. Power System Stability Enhancement Using Shunt-connected Power Electronic Devices with Active Power Injection Capability

   Author : Mebtu Bihonegn Beza; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Power Oscillation Damping POD ; energy storage; Adaptive estimation; Static Synchronous Compensator STATCOM ; Recursive Least Square RLS ; Transient Stability Enhancement TSE ; FACTS; Static Var Compensator SVC ;

   Abstract : Power electronic devices such as Flexible AC Transmission Systems (FACTS), both in shunt and series configuration, are widely used in the power system for power flow control, to increase the loading capability of an existing line and to increase the security of the system by enhancing its transient stability. Among the shunt-connected FACTS controllers family, the Static Synchronous Compensator (STATCOM) and the Static Var Compensator (SVC) are two key devices for reinforcing the stability of the AC power system.

4. 2. Synchronous Voltage Reversal Control of Thyristor Controlled Series Capacitor

   Author : Lennart Ängquist; KTH; []
   Keywords : ThyristorControlled Series Capacitor; TCSC; FACTS; reactive power compensation; boost control; phasor estimation; Quantitative Feedback Theory; subsynchronous resonance; SSR;

   Abstract : Series compensation of transmission lines is an effectiveand cheap method of improving the power transmission systemperformance. Series capacitors virtually reduces the length ofthe line making it easier to keep all parts of the power systemrunning in synchronism and to maintain a constant voltage levelthroughout the system.

5. 3. Power System Security Assessment - Application of Learning Algorithms

   Author : Christian Andersson; Industriell elektroteknik och automation; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

   Abstract : The last years blackouts have indicated that the operation and control of power systems may need to be improved. Even if a lot of data was available, the operators at different control centers did not take the proper actions in time to prevent the blackouts. READ MORE

6. 4. Control of Dynamically Assisted Phase-shifting Transformers

   Author : Nicklas Johansson; Hans-Peter Nee; Olof Samuelsson; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Thyristor Controlled Series Capacitor; Thyristor Switched Series Capacitor; Controlled Series Compensator; Dynamic Power Flow Controller; Phase-Shifting Transformer; Power Oscillation Damping; Transient Stability; Power Flow Control; Adaptive Control; Electric power engineering; Elkraftteknik;

   Abstract : In this thesis, controllers for power oscillation damping, transient stability improvement and power flow control by means of a Controlled Series Compensator (CSC) and and a Dynamic Power Flow Controller (DPFC) are proposed. These devices belong to the group of power system components referred to as Flexible AC Transmission System (FACTS) devices. READ MORE

7. 5. On Control of Grid-connected Voltage Source Converters - Mitigation of Voltage Dips and Subsynchronous Resonances

   Author : Massimo Bongiorno; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
