Control system of the physical simulation for the HVDC transmission system

Abstract

The intention of this paper is to present the control system of the physical simulation for the Three Gorges HVDC transmission system. It covers all essential control functions which are involved in the continuously working power flow control and power modulation including converter firing and pole current control. This system include two convert stations, They design the fault arbitrator for the dual-controller system based on fault-tolerant technology and figure-safety-comparing technology. The arbitrator can endure long working time with high reliability. Controller A and B not only works independent, but also can controlled by the master controller from CAN bus. At the same time, because the master controller is a industrial PC, we can easy adjust and enhance the functions. This characteristic is especially fit the physical simulation system.
