MODELLING AND SIMULATION OF FC-TCR FOR REACTIVE POWER COMPENSATION USING THE MATLAB/SIMULINK

In this paper, discussion and demonstrate how SVC (Static VAR compensator) is used to improve reactive power and voltage profile. The modern system is complex. There are many static and dynamic devices included in the system. To increase the loading of the existing AC transmission system, Problem of Voltage flicker and voltage stability has become important subject in Power system. Better utilisation of existing power system capacities by installing new devices such as Flexible AC Transmission System (FACTs) has become very important. Here in this paper modelling of the FC-TCR are verified using the MATLAB/Simulink. First power flow results are obtained and power profile have been studied for an uncompensated transmission line then results are compared with the results obtained after compensating using the FC-TCR
