r-----------r---r-----I I 1 Fig. I Diagram of the Thyristor Controlled Series Capacitor illustrating the equivalent impedances of its sub-elements.Abstract: This paper discusses the theory of operation of the thyristor controlled series capacitor (TCSC), and describes the design of a prototype, laboratory-scale TCSC to meet a specific range of capacitive reactance values suited to a research laboratory application. Simulated and measured results of the designed TCSC are presented to verify the soundness of the approach.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
