TITLE Study and analysis of SCCC (Static Synchronous Series Compensator)

OBJECTIVES- Performance and analysis of SSSC for different
dynamic distances with a local signal.
INTRODUCTION In today's society demands for power have increased.
However, it is getting more difficult to establish new energy production centers
and transmission networks due to environmental effects and economic reasons.
One of the most important problems in the control of energy transmission
systems is the reactive power compensation. Reactive power causes the increase
in the transmission systems losses, decrease in power capacity carried in the
transmission lines and the changes in the voltage amplitude at the end of the
lines. Hence it is necessary to provide reactive power compensation in order to
increase transmittable power, decrease losses and provide voltage amplitude
stability Reactive power compensation is often used as the most effective
method both for transmission capacity and amelioration of voltage stability.
Reactive power compensation studies and implementations have been widely
used for this aim.
traditional electromechanical compensation mechanisms. This is due to the lack
It is difficult to improve the large, powerful and rapid power factors of loads by
of rapid response in traditional compensation systems to reactive power
demand. This creates a situation in which the required capacitive reactive
cannot be met through the compensation system. Due to this reason, it is getting
more important to provide rapid compensation systems for energy transmission
and distribution. Power electronics elements are often preferred in
compensation implementations today since their switching speed is high. In the
case compensation in power systems is done by semiconducting switches
voltage sags can be prevented and transient and dynamic stability can be
improved . FACTS devices whose basic structures are formed by reactive power
compensation elements of power electronics can theoretically be connected to
any point in the energy conveyor line and undertake the control functions in a
rapid manner.

SSSC
SSSC is in the form of a synchronous voltage source connected to transmission
line. It changes the impedance of the line by providing voltage to the
transmission line suitable to the phase angle. It can exchange active and reactive
power with the line. If the voltage applied to the line and the flow received from
the line are both large at the same time there is an exchange of active power.
When the angle between the flow and the voltage is 90o, the power transfer will
be in the form of reactive power exchange. Reactive power is either provided to
or received from the system depending on the forward or backward status of the
flow.

MATERIAL AND METHODS

This Comparison is going to be analysed in MATLAB on the basis of their
performance characteristics. This project deals with the performance analysis of
a damping controller for a Static synchronous series compensator (SSSC) for
enhancing the power system dynamic stability of a single machine power
system connecting to an infinite bus.

Following a disturbance in the power system, there will be amiss-match

between the input mechanical and output electrical power of the machine which
leads to the deviation in the rotor angle as well as the rotor speed. The controller
takes any one of this deviation and processed it in to a compensating voltage
injected in series by the SSSC. The tuning of the controller is done by a nature
inspired optimizing technique called as firefly algorithm. Further, the controller
performance is analyzed and is verified for different disturbance conditions.
