Flexible AC Transmission Systems (FACTS): Newton Power-Flow Modeling of Voltage-Sourced Converter-Based Controllers introduces different voltage-sourced converter (VSC)-based FACTS controllers and VSC-based high-voltage direct current (VSC-HVDC) systems and their working principles explaining how FACTS controllers exchange real and reactive power with systems. Subsequently the book: Describes the Newton–Raphson method and its application for solving the power-flow problem Presents the Newton power-flow modeling of the static synchronous series compensator (SSSC) unified power-flow controller (UPFC) interline power-flow controller (IPFC) generalized unified power-flow controller (GUPFC) and static synchronous compensator (STATCOM) accommodating the practical device constraint limits (because of the unique modeling strategy the existing Newton power-flow codes can be reused) Develops a unified Newton power-flow model of AC systems incorporating multiterminal VSC-HVDC systems with pulse-width modulation (PWM) control schemes directly yielding the VSC modulation indices from the power-flow solution Provides numerous case studies for validation of Newton power-flow models elaborating on the occurrences and checking of unrealistic power-flow solutions in isolated cases Includes detailed derivations of all the difficult formulae as well as solved problems on typical VSC-based FACTS controllers Flexible AC Transmission Systems (FACTS): Newton Power-Flow Modeling of Voltage-Sourced Converter-Based Controllers assumes at least an undergraduate-level understanding of engineering mathematics network analysis electrical machines electrical power systems and power electronics. Thus the book provides a valuable reference for practitioners as well as senior-undergraduate and graduate students in electrical engineering and electrical power systems. |Flexible AC Transmission Systems (FACTS) Newton Power-Flow Modeling of Voltage-Sourced Converter-Based Controllers | Electrical Engineering
