Damping torque analysis of static VAR system controllers

Abstract
The use of a damping torque technique to examine the efficacy of various control signals, for reactive power modulation of a midpoint-located static VAr system (SVS) in enhancing the power transfer capability of long transmission lines is considered. A new auxiliary signal, the computed internal frequency (CIF), is proposed which synthesizes the internal voltage frequency of the remote generator from electrical measurements at the SVS bus. It is demonstrated that this signal is far superior to other conventional auxiliary control signals in that it allows full utilization of the network transmission capacity. The damping torque results are correlated with those obtained from eigenvalue analysis. >

Static reactive-power compensator controls for improved system stability

TL;DR: In this article, a simplified analysis of the effect of a static reactive-power compensator on the stability of a two-machine system is presented, which shows that the SVC's damping effectiveness is greatly affected by a self-feedback term, whereby a change in SVC suceptance changes the measurement signal which is used to control SVC.
