Abstract :
A simulation study of a unified power flow controller (UPFC) aimed at examining its capability to operate as a general purpose device for power systems is presented. The simulation is made using the Electro Magnetic Transient Program (EMTP). To utilize the UPFC´s possibilities, the three controllable UPFC´s parameters have been adjusted during the digital simulation process performed by EMTP. Among different UPFC power circuit structures, the most practical from the viewpoint of efficiency and power device availability based on the concept of multi-pulse inverters is simulated and studied
