In this paper two power elements for power controller in transmission line are presented: Variable Frequency Transformer (VFT) and Rotary Power Flow Controller (RPFC). In addition, here a new Optimal Power Flow (OPF) with these elements is presented. In this paper, it has been made use of the Impedance and Admittance nonsymmetrical matrix and the matrix of loss or coefficient B are calculated in a new method. It has also been indicated that the system is not optimized if optimal power flow is not considered in locating and power of flow controller in line. The proposed method was applied to a 26-bus and 6-generator system and the results were satisfactory. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper presents a study about of a fuzzy Controlled STATCOM, which can be applied for mitigation of the voltage flicker in a distribution system. The voltage flicker is produced by a large variable load absorbing continuously changing currents such as an arc furnace. The DSTATCOM includes a voltage-sourced PWM inverter and its control system. The control strategy of the DSTATCOM plays an important role in maintaining the voltage flicker. Here, the DSTATCOM controller is designed with two types of controllers, linear proportional-integral (PI) and nonlinear fuzzy logic. The simulation of the DSTATCOM with 3MVar reactive power on a 25 KV distribution network is carried out in MATLAB/SIMULINK software. At the end of the paper, fuzzy controllers were evaluated by comparing its performance with the PI controllers. It is observed that the fuzzy controllers are very superior in mitigating the voltage flicker. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
