Abstract

Unified power flow controller (UPFC) and interline power flow controller (IPFC) are FACTS devices that can control the power flow in transmission lines by injecting active and reactive voltage components in series with the lines, using power converter modules, based on an externally regulated dc-link voltage. One key issue, in this application, is to find a relationship between the injected voltage and the resulting power flow in the line. In this paper, this relationship is derived analytically, and used to design two power flow control schemes. The proposed control schemes are applicable to any series-connected FACTS controller with the capability of producing a controllable voltage. In this paper, the proposed power flow control schemes are applied to a voltage-sourced converter-based IPFC, and the resulting control performances are examined using PSCAD/EMTDC simulation package. The simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed power flow control schemes.
