Application of brain emotional learning-based intelligent controller to power flow control with thyristor-controlled series capacitance

Thyristor-controlled series capacitance (TCSC), as a member of flexible AC transmission systems family, controls the interrelated parameters that govern the transmission systems. In this study, an intelligent controller, known as brain emotional learning-based intelligent controller is used to active power control of a transmission line equipped with TCSC and compared with conventional proportional–integral–derivative and fuzzy logic controllers. Simulation results of two different power systems under different conditions show the effectiveness of the proposed intelligent technique in power flow control.
