Constant reactive current control or AC voltage control may overcome some of the problems of weak AC systems. HVDC Light based on VSC Voltage Source Converters.
Constant Extinction Angle CEA control and Constant Current CC control techniques are implemented for the DC link control.
Constant extinction angle control hvdc. Extinction Angle Control Gamma Control The extinction angle control at inverter is provided in order to maintain stability margins. The extinction angle reference value is the minimum allowed value eg17 The extinction angle control becomes active when the minimum limit is reached. Constant Extinction Angle CEA control and Constant Current CC control techniques are implemented for the DC link control.
The power reversal can be achieved by changing the polarity of the DC voltage. The harmonic effects of the DC links are reduced by using AC and DC filters for a more stable transmission system. Fast Fourier Transform FFT analysis is used to calculate the Total Harmonic Distortion THD due to filtering effect.
In this study an extinction angle predictive EAP control strategy is proposed to mitigate commutation failure CF in high voltage direct current HVDC systems. The proposed strategy works effectively during both AC system faults and commutation voltage distortions. At first an index is put forward to evaluate the prospective commutation area drop and quantify the upcoming commutation stress considering the commutation mechanism.
Then the extinction angle. The Inverter is usually operated at constant extinction angle. This has the characteristic equation given by Vd v0cosδ-3wLcId.
This is shown in figure 1119 In a dc. Link it is common practice to operate the link at constant current rather than at constant voltage. There are two main inverter side control strategies in actual HVDC engineering under steady-state operation ie.
Constant extinction angle control and constant voltage control. At present few. In HVDC projects the predictive calculation-based extinction angle control PC-EAC generates the firing angle order by means of open loop.
Under the steady-state condition the result of its calculation is accurate. However when a fault occurs in AC system a serious calculation error will exist which increases the risk of commutation failure. CONSTANT EXTINCTION ANGLE CONTROL.
COMBINED RECTIFIER AND INVERTER CHARACTERISTICS. Power reversal can be done by changing the current settings of the converter and inverter which is shown in the dotted line above ALTERNATIVE CONTROL STRATEGIES FOR INVERTER. DC VOLTAGE CONTROL MODE.
Instead of regulating by fixing γ a closed loop may be. A Gavrilovi ć OBE in Electrical. It is important that inverters are provided with constant-extinction angle γ control to prevent commutation failures in normal steady-state operation as discussed in Section 3210.
For constant γ operation equation 328 becomes 329 U d U dio cos γ 05 I d I d 1 x c View chapter Purchase book. HVDC Light based on VSC Voltage Source Converters. HVDC Light has considerably higher dynamic performance compared to HVDC Classic but still HVDC Classic is dominating for low cost bulk transmissions.
The first HVDC transmission in the world was begun in. Internal voltages Vdorcosa and Vdoicos are used to control the voltages at any point on the line and the current flow power This can be accomplished by. Controlling firing angles of the rectifier and inverter for fast action Changing taps on the transformers on the AC side slow response Power reversal is obtained by reversal of polarity of direct voltages at both ends 19 North China.
MTech Technical Seminar Topic Electrical and Electronics Electronics and Communication Contact me for complete documents regarding this topic. The conventional constant extinction angle control may not be suitable for weak AC systems. Constant reactive current control or AC voltage control may overcome some of the problems of weak AC systems.
The power modulation techniques used to improve dynamic stability of power systems will have to be modified in the presence of weak AC systems. Six Pulse Converters The conversion from AC to DC and vice-versa is done in HVDC. Consequence of that the overlap angle must increase.
However the extinction angle is kept constant by the converter firing control system CFC. Thus when the current increases further we move along the line D-E which is the focus for the constant extinction angle g in the U d I d characteristics. The characteristics A-B-C-D-E is the basic form of the U dI.
The constant extinction angle control and constant DC voltage control are widely used for the inverter station of Line Commutated Converter based High Voltage Direct Current LCC-HVDC system in practical engineering. HVDC power transmission system is a typical time varying system with many nonlinear relationships among different variables it is difficult for the conventional PI controller to work effectively for large changes in the operation. In this paper the synergetic control theory is discussed and a nonlinear controller based on such theory is proposed for the HVDC power transmission system in which a constant DC current controller for the rectifier and a constant extinction angle controller.
Chadwick A new constant extinction angle control for acdcac static converters IEEE Trans. On Power Apparatus and Systems Vol. PAS-87 March 1968 pp.
The pole control produces control characteristics shown in Figure C5 by selecting the minimum value among the outputs of constant current CC constant voltage CV and constant extinction angle CEA controls as shown in Figure C4. Extinction angle control is needed to avoid commutation failures in inverter operation which occur if the commutation process does not complete a certain. If the inverter is operating in constant dc voltage control at the operating point H and if the dc current order Iorder is increased so that the operating point H moves towards and beyond point B the inverter mode of control will revert to constant extinction angle g control and operate on characteristic A-B.
Dc voltage Ud will be less than the desired value and so the converter transformer on-line tap changer at the inverter will boost its dc side voltage until dc.
