Abstract This paper presents a new method to mitigate Active,Reactive Power loss and Overloading in a deregulated Powersystem.The Increased power demand has forced the power system to operate very closer to its stability limits.So Transmission Overloading,Voltage instability and power loss problems are arise in the power system. These are very serious problems which cause damage to the power system.Overloading is a tough task in Deregulated power system.The above mentioned problems are reduced by incorporating Series Facts device in optimal location by Sensitivity analysis.The Simulation results were successfully tested on modified IEEE 14 bus system using Power world simulator 11.0.

1 INTRODUCTION

In the recent year with the deregulation of the electricity market the traditional concepts and practice of the power sys- tem are changed.In this process the existing transmission lines are over loaded and lead to unstable system.Overloading may also due to transfer of cheap power from generator bus to load bus,this lead to the inroduction of flexible ac transmission sys- tem(FACTS) such as Thyristor controlled series compensa- tion(TCSC).This device control the power flow in the network And reduce the flow heavily loaded line there by resulting in an increase load ability low system losses improved stability of the network and reduced active, reactive power loss.

Because of the Economic considerations, Instalation of facts Controllers in all the buses or lines is impossible and Unnecessary.There are Several methods for finding the op- timal location of FACTS devices in a power system.In [1],sencitivity approach is used to find the optimal location for placement of TCSC[6].The reduction of total system reactive Power loss method is one used to find optimal loation for placement of series FACTS device. Power flow index is used to find optimal location of FACTS device mitigation of over- loading.The method firstly put all the busses in the orderby voltage reactive power sensitivity then choose the optimal

   The issue of transmission overloading is more pronounced in location and appropriate capability of Thyristor controlled series capacitor (TCSC).

   deregulated and competitive markets and needs a special treatment.In this environment, independent system opera- tor(ISO) has to relieve the overloading,so that the system is maintained in secure state. To mitigate overloading ISO can use mainly two types of techniques which are as follows:

   1. Cost free means : using sreies FACTS devices

   2. Re-dispatching the generation amounts

Among the above two methods cost free means do have advantage such as not touching economical matters, So GENCO and DISCO will not involved. FACTS devic- es,especially series FACTS devices like TCSC are considered one such technology that reduced the transmission overload- ing,powerloss (active,reactive) and allows better utilization of existing grid infrastructure,along with many benfits.

1. Thyristor Controlled Series Capacitor

   The basic Thyristor Controlled Series Capacitor scheme, proposed in 1986 by Vithayathil is shown in figure 1. It con- sists of the series compensating capacitor shunted by a Thy- ristor-controlled Reactor. In a practical TCSC implementation, Several such basic compensators may be connected in series to obtain the desired voltage rating and operating characteristics.

   The power loss sensitivity index with respect to this control variable can be formulated as

   1. Criteria for Optimal placement for TCSC

      The FACTS device should be placed on the most sensitivity bus or line. For the TCSC the location is the line with most positive sesetivity index. The TCSC should be placed on the line having most positive loss sensitivity index.

2. DEVICE PLACEMENT USING LOSS SENSITIVITY INDEX METHOD

The objective of the device placement may be reduction in the real power loss of a particular line,reduction in the total sys- tem real power loss,reduction in the total reactive power loss and reduction in the overloading of the system.Loss sensitivity index is method based on the sensitivity of total system active and reactive power loss with respect to control variable of the FACT device.

Test results are optained by considering practical IEEE 14 bus system.OPF soluction is obtained on the system to deter- mine the optimum genatation schedule than satisfied the ob- jective of minimizing the losses from the desire transations and controling of voltage magnitude. Here the sensitive index for TCSC has been calculated for the placement of FACTS de- vice. The FACTS device placement method known as sensi- tivity index has been tested on IEEE 14- bus system.

Figure.3 Shows the single line diagram of IEEE 14-bus system

The sensitivity of 14-bus system with out TCSC is given in the table below.

Table 1: sensitivity Index

Lines	From Bus	To Bus	Sensitivity in- dex

18	10	11	-0.06203
19	12	13	0.000309
20	13	14	-0.0000028

From the above table 1, the lines 1-5 have the most positive sensitivity factors. So there is the best location for placement of TCSC to reduce over loading in the network.

By placing TCSC in the line 1-5, the overloading can be miti- gated[1].These location offer best results in terms of increase in active power generation with mitigation of active and reac- tive powerloss and improvement of voltage profile.

It is observed that from table2 the lines 1-2 over loaded compared to other lines.from table2 highest lodable line

is 1-2. Due the Increased loading these lines are overloaded. So by using TCSC, overloading is going to be reduced

and Reactive power loss without TCSC. The results obtained on 14-bus system indicate that in order to maintain the voltage magnitude at main at 1.1p.u.

5.1 Simulation results on IEEE 5-bus system with TCSC

From the table 1 , the maximum Loadable lines is 1-5. From table 2 , the lines 1-2 have the most positive sensitivity factors. From the above anolysis these are the best location for place- ment of TCSC . By placing the TCSC in the line 1-5, the over- loading in the system is mitigated which is shown in fig 6

Fig 6 Shows the modified IEEE 5- bus system With TCSC (Overloading mitigation by TCSC)

It is observed that after placing TCSC the over loading in the line is reduced. The objective is to mitigate power loss

,overloading and impoving voltage profile.TCSC is modeled as an adjustable series reactance which is a function of TCSC.By incorporating TCSC not only reduce the powerloss also improves the voltage profile.It is observed that optimal power flow solution changes little compared with the base optimal power flow shown in table:6 when TCSC is used.

The Table4 shows Loadability of each line when TCSC is placed in the line 1-3 .

6 Conclusions:

Mitigation of overloading, power loss is an important issue in deregulated power system. FACTS devices such as TCSC by controlling the power flow in the network can help to reduce flows in overloaded lines. Because of the considerable costs of FACTS devices, It is important to obtain optimal location for placement of these devices. The results presented in this paper show that sensitivity index along with TCSC. The effect of TCSC on line outage in order to mitigate overloading has also been studied. It can be observed from the setting the installed TCSC.
