Abstract
In this paper, an attempt is made to present the controllers used for a power flow controller, termed as Distributed Power Flow Controller (DPFC). This comes under the category of Flexible AC Transmission Systems (FACTS) devices. DPFC emerges from the unified power flow-controller (UPFC), a most powerful FACTS device which can be used for both shunt and series control. So DPFC inherits the same control capability of simultaneous adjustment of line impedance, transmission angle and the bus voltage magnitude, which are the dynamic control parameters. The DPFC control and the functions of the different components for shunt and series controllers of DPFC are presented. These components can be obtained from Simulink Library of MATLAB environment and simulation model is obtained in this paper to check the dynamic response of DPFC.
