Abstract: To obtain optimum the power market the deregulation process is implemented for the entire electrical market and further classified as transmission and distribution units. Each firm focuses on delivering their best output which lead to congestion issues on transmission lines as there is in-adequate transmission capability to satisfy the load demand, transmission congestion occurs. Transmission cable congestion results from a lack of coordination between the utilities that handle generating, transmission, and distribution lead to generator failure, an abrupt increase in load demand, or the miscarriage of equipment, all of which can be fixed by FACTS devices. In this work, transmission line congestion is reduced using FACTS devices like UPFC and IPFC. The primary goal is to determine where FACTS devices should be placed. The main goal is to use the ANTLION optimization algorithm to locate the optimal position and size for FACTS devices. In an IEEE-14 bus system, UPFC and IPFC are individually connected and parameters are analyzed and formulated for better transmission among energy sectors.
Keywords: UPFC; IPFC; Congestion; IEEE-14 bus system; ANTLION optimization.
1. INTRODUCTION
Transmission line losses are due to the extreme loads, lack of co-ordination between generation, transmission and loads. There will be a loss of ability to retain power in the system as a result of an increase in distribution-side load and decreased power generation as discussed in paper [1]. Further the proposed work establishes the goal of the study and identifies the characteristics of the system with and without FACTS devices identified in [2, 3]. FACTS device play a major role to reduce power losses and improve the network's efficiency in order to minimize power loss [4]. Different techniques have been discussed [5] to reduce power losses and maintain power quality; the most efficient topology and compact system method is used. The transmission line connects FACTS devices like the UPFC and IPFC. A comparison of UPFC and IPFC analyzed [6, 7] and utilized to make up for the system's lagging output voltage by computing the difference between the reference voltage and output voltage. By using the FACTS device, the voltage difference is injected. An optimization technique called Antlion is used to determine the required size of the FACTS device as proposed in [8, 9]. To obtain better power fed load as objective for FACTS device the proposed work algorithm analyzed the system with a FACTS device and the system without a FACTS device, an IEEE-14 bus test system is used to develop the model and presented for work.
2. MATERIAL AND METHODS
One of the FACTS components, the unified power flow controller (UPFC), is connected in both a shunt and series form. Two back-to-back converters are included in the UPFC, converters 1 and 2, which are connected by a typical dc coupling provided by a dc storage capacitor. According to this theory, actual power can flow between the ac terminals of the two converters in any direction, and each converter can independently generate or absorb reactive power at its own ac output terminal. When a voltage sag or swell occurs in the transmission line, UPFC absorbs or generates reactive power to help maintain a constant output voltage. Converters 1 and 2 are coupled to the transmission line in series and shunt, respectively. ANTLION optimization algorithm is used to determine the optimal size and position of UPFC. The proposed block diagram of UPFC is shown below figure 1.
One of the FACTS devices, the Interline Power Flow Controller (IPFC), is used to regulate the power flow of several transmission lines. The device IPFC, which is derived from UPFC, contains n converters that regulate the power flow between the lines; the minimum number of converters that must be connected back to back is two. To manage the power flow, each converter must be connected in series with a distinct transmission line. In order to maintain control over the DC link voltage during this operation, active power must be coordinated. Each converter's reactive power is independent; the DC link voltage is achieved by similar way as UPFC. One series converter can produce an active power flow flowing into the link and can control voltage freely. The remaining n number of transmission lines transfer active power from one line to another to balance the power flow in the n parallel transmission lines if there are n number of converters and (n-1) converters can absorb or generate active power while one converter must control the DC link voltage. The ANTLION optimization algorithm is used to determine the optimal size and position of IPFC. The proposed block diagram of IPFC is shown below figure 2.
The majority of problems require precise values and strong tools for computing those values. Various methods are utilized for problem solving, and the ANTLION'S hunting skill aids in pinpointing the food. To search ants, ant lion makes use of the upcoming process

5. CONCLUSIONIn this work, congestion management was done by using FACTS device. The IEEE-14 Bus test system has been designed in MATLAB/Simulink and it is simulated with the system connected with FACTS device and without FACTS device. Simulation results show the FACTS device effectiveness by injecting the required voltage need by the system to maintain balance output voltage and it is found that the active and reactive power is also improved when FACTS device is introduced. The optimal allocation of FACTS device is done by using ALO algorithm. Moreover, UPFC and IPFC inject the required amount of voltage to maintain the system output voltage at constant. During the voltage injection, whereas IPFC injects only the required amount of voltage to the load but UPFC injects high voltage at the initial stage. To protect the system from damage, occur due to high voltage. The system needs to add protection circuit, which adds on additional cost on the system. This main of this work is to reduce cost and to increase the efficiency of the system. So, IPFC is comparatively better than UPFC to improve the efficiency of the system. REFERENCES
