A REVIEW ON UNIFIED POWER FLOW CONTROLLER (UPFC) TO IMPROVE POWER TRANSFER CAPABILITY OF INTERCONNECTED POWER SYSTEM

Abstract

Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC) is the most potent facts device. UPFC is able to control the true and reactive energy together with voltage magnitude and phase perspective. After we talk concerning the interconnected community, the foremost situation is highest use of the switch potential of interconnected line. Inside the line limits stipulations, UPFC is equipped to maximise the power transfer capacity between the 2 interconnected vigour techniques. This paper proposes use of phasor mannequin of UPFC to maximize the power transfer ability of interconnected power programs. UPFC is established on the interconnecting line. The modeling is completed in Matlab/Simulink utilizing scan method along with 20 bus system incorporating UPFC. The simulation results certainly show that the mannequin using UPFC has highest worth of vigour switched as compared to the model with out UPFC.
