Abstract

The Generalized Unified Power Flow Controller (GUPFC) is one of the most versatile flexible ac transmission system (FACTS) controllers which controls the active and reactive power flows in multiple transmission lines originating from a substation while controlling the sending end bus voltage. The sending end bus voltage is regulated by control of shunt reactive current while the active and reactive power flows in the transmission line are regulated by series injected voltages. This paper reports the analysis and study of Subsynchronous Resonance (SSR) characteristics of hybrid compensated system with GUPFC. The various operating mode combinations of series and shunt converters are considered to investigate their effect on SSR characteristics. The methods of analysis of SSR with GUPFC is based on the evaluation of damping torque, eigenvalues of the system and transient simulation. The computation of damping torque considers D–Q model of GUPFC to determine the torsional mode stability. The study is performed on a system adapted from IEEE Second Benchmark Model (SBM). The results demonstrate the effectiveness of series real injected voltage in mitigating the SSR.
