Abstract
This paper presents the experimental results of stabilization of a model power transmission system by using a Superconducting Magnet Energy Storage (SMES). The SMES, which was composed of two sets of GTO (Gate Turn Off thyristor) power converters and a superconducting coil, is capable of controlling active power (P) and reactive power (Q) simultaneously in four quadrants by changing the firing angles of power converters. The model power transmission system was designed to simulate the behavior of a real scale long distance bulk power transmission system with voltage of 500 kV, capacity of 2000 MVA and length of 280 km. In this study, we have experimented power system stabilizing control by applying P-Q simultaneous control ability of SMES. From the results of experiment it was demonstrated that stabilizing effect by means of SMES is very significant.
