English Abstract

Voltage unbalance is one of the most important power quality issues which occurs in electrical power systems and causes severe problems for them.

In this work, a general mathematical model for electrical power systems including its long transmission line is developed using the generalized circuit parameters method.

Then, a hybrid PSO-ANN algorithm is proposed to overcome the voltage unbalance power quality problem by controlling the firing angles of TCR compensator in order to control the amount of reactive power at the load side.

PSO algorithm is responsible for determining the optimal set of TCR firing angles required to retrieve the balanced conditions in offline mode for different load changes, employing the developed mathematical model of the long transmission line.

Then, these datasets are taken as training samples for the ANN in order to be used in online mode.

Aqaba Qatranah South-Amman (AQSA) electrical power system is considered as a real case study and simulated in MATLAB environment in order to validate the proposed algorithm.

The simulation results are compared with other ANN algorithms available in literature.

A laboratory prototype is built for AQSA electrical power system with its long transmission line in order to test the proposed hybrid PSOANN algorithm for real unbalanced conditions acquired from the laboratory prototype by means of a real-time monitoring system.

The simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed PSO-ANN algorithm to mitigate the voltage unbalance problem and retrieve the balanced conditions accurately and within short time.
