Wais PY - 2021 VL - 25 IS - 5 SP - 26 EP - 38 JO - Journal of Engineering and Sustainable Development (JEASD) مجلة الهندسة والتنمية المستدامة SN - 25200917 25200925 AB - This research aims to improve the steady-state performance of high-voltage power transmission lines, which is a significant challenge for the power system grid's safe and reliable operation. The research adopted Flexible Alternating Current Transmission System for electronic devices. The flexible alternating current transmission system technology will be used in this specific work as Thyristor-Controlled Series Compensators. Thyristor-controlled series compensator devices increase transmission systems' capacity and enhance the voltage profile by regulating transmission line reactance. Gravitational Search Algorithm is a meta-heuristic approach applied to find the optimum size and optimal location of thyristor-controlled series compensators in power systems. The gravitational search algorithm is used to solve the multi-objective and integrated optimum power flow problem in reactive energy management during normal and contingency operations. The results showed reduced voltage deviation, reduced active/reactive power losses, and increased transmission line reserves above thermal limits, in addition to reducing the installed cost and number of thyristor series compensators devices. The simulation part was created with MATLAB programming language and validated with MATPOWER software. Applied to IEEE 30 bus system and 400kV super high voltage grid system.
