Abstract

An advanced and versatile member of flexible AC transmission systems (FACTS) controller is interline power flow controller (IPFC). In general, IPFC is used in multiple transmission lines of a power system network. This paper presents a power injection model of IPFC. The power injection model is incorporated in Newton-Raphson (NR) power flow solution method to study the effects of IPFC parameters in power flow studies. A program in MATLAB has been written in order to extend conventional NR algorithm based on this model. Numerical results are carried out on IEEE 14-bus system to demonstrate the performance of the IPFC model. It is shown that there is a possibility of regulating bus voltages, active power flow, reactive power flow and minimizing the power losses simultaneously with proper IPFC parameters.
