Fundamental Analysis of the Static VAr Compensator Performance Using Individual Channel Analysis and Design

Carlos Ernesto Ugalde Loo
In this paper the performance of a synchronous generator – SVC system is evaluated using Individual Channel Analysis and Design (ICAD), a control-oriented framework suitable for small-signal stability assessments. The SVC is already a mature piece of technology, which has become very popular for providing fast-acting reactive power support. The great benefits of ICAD in control system design tasks are elucidated. Fundamental analysis is carried out explaining the generator dynamic behavior as affected by the SVC. A multivariable control system design for the system is presented, with particular emphasis in the closed-loop performance and stability and structural robustness assessment. It is formally shown in the paper that although the addition of the SVC with no damping control loop does not improve the dynamic of the system, its inclusion is very effective in enhancing voltage stability. Moreover, ICAD analysis shows that with the use of the SVC the dynamical structure of the system is preserved and no considerable coupling or adverse dynamics are added to the plant.
