N2  -  Controlled reactors as one of the flexible AC transmission systems play an important role in the availability and reliability of power systems.However, in the conventional reliability assessment of power systems, reactive power is considered only as a constraint for the network, and so far no precise model for assessing the reliability of reactors has been provided. In this paper, a new reliability model based on Markov process is proposed for a magnetically controlled reactor (MCR). In the modeling process, first the MCR structure is divided into two distinct parts, and then the extracted Markov models are combined based on frequency/duration technique.Since temperature changes play a significant role in changing the failure rate of electrical equipment, the effect of temperature changes in accordance with the MIL-217F standard has been considered in the proposed model and its impact on the probability of MCR operating modes has been evaluated. The simulation results have shown that in normal temperature conditions, the control system and at high temperatures, reactor windings can have the greatest impact on the availability of MCR. Comparison of reliability indices at different temperatures has shown that under different temperature conditions, different components will affect the availability of MCR. Therefore, in this condition, the measures needed to improve the reliability of the reactor can be different. This fact highlights the importance of considering the effect of operating temperature on reliability assessment as well as planning for preventive maintenance to improve the performance of reactive power sources.
