Abstract

In this paper a novel supplementary subsynchronous damping controller (SSDC) is proposed for the STATic synchronous COMpensator (STATCOM) which is capable of damping out subsynchronous oscillations in power system with series compensated transmission lines. An auxiliary subsynchronous damping controller (SSDC) for a STATCOM using the generator rotor speed deviation signal as the stabilizing signal has been designed to damp subsynchronous oscillations. Eigenvalue analysis and transient simulations of detailed nonlinear system are considered to investigate the performance of the controller. Robustness of the controller has been analyzed by facing the system with disturbances leading to significant changes in generator operating point. This paper deals with a cascaded multilevel converter model, which is a 48-pulse (three levels) source converter. The IEEE Second Benchmark (SBM) model is considered for the analysis and the complete digital simulation of the STATCOM within the power system is performed in the MATLAB/Simulink environment.
