Abstract :
In this paper the model of UPFC is represented by a bilinear equation. Then with the second method of Lyapunov, the input of converter is derived such that the derivative of energy function is negative. The design of controller is carried out with two methods. In the first method, the controller is linearized at operating point. In the second method, the nonlinear method is used in the series converter and the PI controller is used in the shunt converter. Reduction of first swing peak after fault clearing is the main advantage of designed controller with respect of PI controller.
