Abstract
This paper presents Simulation of Power Losses Improvement with Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC) on Transmission Line System of Southern and western Sulawesi (Sulselbar) Using Neplan Software. In the operation of electric power system, the power flow on the transmission line is a function of the parameter line (ie; impedance line, the sender and receiver voltage and the phase angle). UPFC as a family of flexible ac transmission system device (Facts Device), can control the real and reactive power flow simultaneously or separately via the control transmission line parameter. By placing UPFC between bus of Bone (18) and bus of Sinjai (19) at Sulselbar system, and set the power flowing to the UPFC by (15 MW, 5 MVAR). Simulation results show that total of power losses in the system has decreased, the production of reactive power at the plant declined, power factor has increased and voltage of bus has increased also. So that UPFC can be a solution of system development without having to reschedule of generation and change of line topologi

Introduction
Development of electric power system can not be separated from the plant addition and new transmission line expansion. But for the area/city that rapidly growing is a complex problem and complicated. To increase the capacity of power generation side, the wisest solution is to increase the loadability of transmission line by minimizing the power losses through a control parameter of
transmission line (impedance line, the sender and receiver voltage, phase angle).
Unified power flow controller (UPFC) as a power electronics-based controllers, can acts as a shunt compensator, phase converters and series compensators simultaneously or separately on the transmission line[3], the way of UPFC operation can be changed from one state to another without having to did generation reschedule or change line topologi[2]. Loadability enhancement in transmission line by minimizing the power losses using UPFC will increase the Available transfer capability (ATC) transmission line.

Literature Review
The basic structure of UPFC
The basic structure of the UPFC, consists of 2 pieces sourced Voltage Converters (VSC), which are connected with a common DC link through a DC Capacitor Storage. Each Converter is connected to the system through a coupling transformer. Converter 1 is connected in parallel with the transmission line through a shunt transformer (Boosting Transformer) and Static Synchronous known as Compensator (STATCOM), while the second converter connected in series with the transmission line through a series transformer (Exciting Transformer) and is known as a Static Synchronous Series Compensator (SSSC) [3]. More details see figure 1 below.

Function of UPFC
In Figure 1, shows that the two converters are operated from a common dc link through the dc storage capacitor. Converter 2 (serial converter) works by injecting Vpq voltage magnitude and phase angle are controllable, while converter 1 (shunt converter) supplying active power from the transmission line required by the converter 2 via the common dc link, this situation led to serial converter to exchange power active and reactive power with the transmission line.
Each converter can generate or absorb reactive power on each of its ac terminal. For that converter 1 in addition serves to maintain a constant dc voltage to control voltage phase through exchange of active power, as well as control the ac voltage at the transformer

Operation without compensation
In Figure 3a, is shown a simple system with two machines are connected by a transmission line reactance XL, where Vs is the sender voltage and VR is receiver. While the picture 3b shows the voltage phasor

Phasor voltage
Phasor voltage in Figure 3b, shows that the current is lagging to voltage is 900 and phase angle between VS and VR (if VR as a voltage reference) is . The power transfer equation, formulated as follows:
terminal shunt through reactive power exchange with the line, while the series converter with voltage injection can control active and reactive power transmission line.

Operation with shunt converter
(1)
In figure 2. Showing eqivalen circuit of UPFC, with series voltage source of series injection VSE and shunt voltage source VSH, and each has a series and shunt reactance XSE, XSH, and XL is reactance of the transmission line
In Figure 4. Indicated that, by changing the VSH and the phase angle between voltage VSH and VS maintained at zero value, the reactive power flow direction can be changed (VSH functions generate or consume reactive
power). This operation is identical to the installation of shunt capacitors on the transmission line, generating or absorbing reactive power by changing its shunt reactive impedance. This situation shows that the function of the shunt compensator duplicatedby shunt voltage source VSH.
Figure 4. Eqivalen circuit of shunt part of UPFC
If the phase angle of shunt voltage VSH is leading to VS, and magnitude VSH > VS, VSH generates the active and reactive power, whereas if the phase angle VS leading to VSH, and magnitude VS > VSH, VSH consumes the active and reactive power. This situation shows that by controlling the amplitude and phase angle of shunt voltage source VSH, the flow direction of active and reactive power can be controlled, so that the shunt voltage source Vsh can serve as a burden on the system or generator power.

Operation with series converter
series part gives the main function of the UPFC by controlling the three parameters (voltage, impedance and phase angle), which affects the power flow in the transmission line simultaneously and independently. Its represented by a variable AC voltage source in series with the VSE that can be controlled
and phase angle measured from reference
voltage VR, connected to the sending end by reactance XSE as illustrated in Fig. 5

3. Research Metodology
This research is a qualitative study with the object of research is power system suselbar. The research strategy resolved by simulations using NEPLAN software and then simulation results is analyzed according to the research objectives.
NEPLAN Software is a Swiss-made software program that is widely used for the purposes of planning and information systems on the network of electrical, gas and water. This software provides all the menus and calculation modules, making it very easy to operate by the user.

From Figure 14 and Table 3. It appears that, by regulating the flow of power flowing through the UPFC, where (-10 MW, 30 MVAR) for UPFC put on between buses 6- 13, (15 MW, 5 MVAR) put on between buses
18-19 and (7 MW, 5 MVAR) put on between
buses 20-21, the results that the voltage on the bus increases, Ploss and Qloss decrease, its certainly improving power factor system, network loadability and available transfer capability for the better.

Conclusion
-
Unified power flow controller (UPFC) is a modern control equipment to control the real and reactive power flow on transmission lines either simultaneously or separately, in addition to its operation can be changed from one state to another without having to reschedule of generation and change of line topoloi. its shows that UPFC can be a solution for increasing the generation capacity of a power system without having to add power.
