Static Var Compensator (SVC) controller implementation

Project (M.S., Electrical and Electronic Engineering) -- California State University, Sacramento, 2013.As the power grid becomes more interconnected, building new power system infrastructure such as power plants and transmission lines become more difficult due to regulation, financial and numerous other constraints. Methods of maximizing the power flow with reduced losses as well as enhancing the stability of the system have to be analyzed. Implementation of SVCs will allow for optimizing the power system. \ud \ud Sources of Data\ud The data was gathered through numerous publications as well as computer aided simulations that served to realize this study.\ud \ud Conclusions Reached\ud The system reaches a stabilized state in a much faster time when the system utilizes an SVC controller. Through partitioning of the rotor angle phase plane, analysis for piecewise linearization, feedback linearization, controllability, observability and pole assignment, the implementation of the SVC is realized.Electrical and Electronic Engineerin
