Abstract
The main purpose of this project is to find the optimal location of FACTS controllers in a multi machine power system using particle swarm optimization (PSO). Using the proposed method, the location of FACTS controller, their type and rated values are optimized simultaneously. Among the various FACTS controllers, Thyristor Controlled Series Compensator (TCSC) and Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC) are considered. The proposed algorithm is an effective method for finding the optimal choice and location of FACTS controller and also minimizing the overall system cost, which comprises of generation cost and the investment cost of the FACTS controller using PSO and conventional Newton Raphson's power flow method. A MATLAB coding is developed for Enhanced Genetic Algorithm. In order to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method, IEEE 14- bus system is used.
