A review on damping of torsional interactions using VSC based FACTS and subsynchronous damping controller

摘要

Improvement in the power transfer capability and the system stability of long transmission lines by series compensation is a cost-effective solution. However, the Subsynchronous Resonance (SSR) due to series compensation leads to severe risk of Torsional Interactions (TI). This paper presents, a review on damping of torsional interactions using Voltage Source Converter (VSC) based FACTS with various Subsynchronous Damping Controllers (SSDC) proposed in the literature. This review can help researchers to make a comparative study of the impact of FACTS devices and various subsynchronous damping controllers on damping of subsynchronous oscillations.
