Abstract:- Flexible AC Transmission System (FACTS) technology comes into effect to overcome the power system existing problem and allows the industries to better utilize the existing transmission and generation reserves with relatively low investment to enhance the power system performance. Moreover, the current trend of deregulated electricity market also favours the FACTS controllers in many ways. FACTS controllers are group of power electronics controllers expected to modernize the power transmission and distribution system, enhance power system performance, improve quality of supply and also provide an optimal utilization of the existing resources. Thyristor Controlled Series Compensator (TCSC) is widely recognized as an effective and economical means to enhance power system stability. Change in value of reactance of the TCSC also affects the stability of the system. In this paper Load flow study has been carried out without compensation and with compensation that is with TCSC alone and then with TCSC & fixed capacitor at different loading of system to obtain the initial conditions of the system. After the initial operating conditions were computed, the detailed linearised state space models has been designed for a single machine infinite bus (SMIB) environment.
INTRODUCTION
In present context of power scenario, series and static shunt compensation in power transmission system is attracting more and more attentions on account of several reasons. In the coming days conductor and line installations costs are expected to increase and the right of way problem is bound to be proved a bottleneck in construction of transmission lines. Squeezing more active power out of existing lines by means of series compensation can be than a more immediate and compelling alternative. Series compensation uses passive capacitor banks as the main component to provide reactive power and to recapture synchronism immediately at fault clearing. Adding control means to the fixed capacitor permits a variation of the inserted capacitor reactance, physically or virtually, so that the degree of compensation can be controlled. The compensation provide fast dynamic reactive power support, increase loading capability of line, allowing line to carry more active power and reduce reactive power flows. For the optimization of transmission corridors the power transfer has become great importance. Therefore, the FACTS technology is an attractive and best option for increasing system operation flexibility.
One important FACTS component is the TCSC which allows rapid and continuous changes of the transmission line impedance Z and is increasingly applied by the utilities
in modern power system with long transmission line and is widely recognized as an effective and economical means to solve the power system problem. The TCSC operation has been focused on two aspects: (1) dynamics of TCSC, called device study and (2) contribution of the TCSC to power system operation and control, called system study. To avoid the linkage these two studies are usually undertaken separately. The effective reactance XTCSC () of TCSC operates in three region, inductive region, capacitive region and resonance region. Detailed characteristics of TCSC, in which parameters such as capacitance, inductance, firing angle, input current and parameters of Metal Oxidized Varistor (MOV) are involved.

Methods:
The first step of controller design is load flow study and it is very important and powerful tool for power system analysis in planning stages and to calculate the initial condition of system. The models are required to be as simple and should retain all significant steady state dynamic characteristics. The new and comprehensive idea in which the state variable is the TCSC's firing angle, which is combined with the nodal voltage magnitudes and angles of the entire network in a single frame-of-reference for a unified iterative solution through the Newton- Raphson method[1]. And a suitable linear continuous TCSC model in state space is derived [2]. In this paper a complete closed loop model is verified in the time and frequency domain. Modeling of Single Machine Infinite Bus (SMIB) & Multi Machine Infinite Bus (MMIB) along with initial condition calculation have been discussed [3, 4, 5].

Operating Principle of SMIB
The system is chosen to analysis the system performance
e.g. load flow calculation, oscillation generation in generator, electrical power output at different companion of line reactance by means of fixed capacitor & TCSC. A single machine connected to an infinite bus through line reactance is widely used for performance of alternator & power transfer at different system parameters For the
calculation of power angle delta, rotor speed & corresponding electrical power output model based on Phillips & Hefron is used. It has also being used for designing & tuning the power system stabilizers. Although

TCSC provides variable-series compensation is simply to increase the fundamental-frequency voltage across a fixed capacitor in a series compensated line through appropriate variation of firing angle . This enhanced voltage changes the effective value of the series capacitive-reactance. The equivalent impedance is,

A single machine connected to an infinite bus in series with TCSC & fixed series capacitor is chosen to analysis the system performance with TCSC & fixed capacitor e.g. load flow calculation, oscillation generation in generator, electrical power output at different companion of line reactance by means of TCSC. Fixed series capacitor reduces the value of capacitor in TCSC or reduces the overall size of TCSC resulted in the saving of cost.

CONCLUSION
After the initial operating conditions were computed, the detailed linearised state space models of a single machine infinite bus (SMIB) system incorporating a TCSC alone and then with TCSC & fixed capacitor has been developed to design the TCSC damping controller in a single machine infinite bus (SMIB) environment.
Eigen value analysis has been carried out to ensure the stability of the system.
For this purpose, a five cycle, self-clearing fault has been considered at the generator terminal and the performance of the controller was found to be satisfactory for damping the low frequency oscillations.
