Phase Shifting Transformer (PST)

Information

The following documentation is adapted from [Milano2010], chapter 11.2.3:

Phase Shifting Transformers (PhSTs) are able to vary the phase shifting angle φ to control the active power flow. These devices are used in meshed networks for reducing the congestion on some transmission lines and/or properly redis- tributing active power flows in transmission lines. A fairly complete review of PhST technologies can be found in [Verboomen2005].

[...]

The measured pmes of the real power flow pk is compared with the desired power flow pref and a PI controller is used for varying the phase angle φ.

[...]

The phase angle φ is subjected to an windup limiter. [...] It is relevant to note that connecting two areas of a network only by means of PhSTs can lead to unsolvable cases, as PhSTs impose the total real power transfer between the two areas.
