When a blocking fault occurs in an HVDC transmission system based on line commutated converters (LCC), the sending-end system is prone to transient overvoltage (TOV) risks. This is especially severe in systems with large-scale renewable energy integration, where excessive TOV can lead to widespread disconnection of renewable energy units, seriously threatening the safe and stable operation of the power system. Therefore, predicting the TOV magnitude in renewable energy stations (RES) under DC blocking (DCB) scenarios is of great importance for maintaining system stability and facilitating emergency control decisions. This paper first derives an analytical expression for the TOV magnitude at critical nodes in the system caused by DCB faults. Subsequently, an analytical formula is developed to characterize the relationship between the multiple renewable energy stations short circuit ratio (MRSCR) and the transient voltage rise (TVR) at the point of common coupling (PCC) of RES. Based on this, a physics-informed neural network-based transient overvoltage magnitude prediction (PINN-TOMP) method for RES under DCB scenarios is proposed. The method introduces a regularization term for MRSCR into the loss function to ensure that the PINN model adheres to the physical laws and constraints governing the power system, thereby enhancing the prediction accuracy. Finally, the proposed method was tested on a real regional power system in China, and the results validated its effectiveness.</p>","PeriodicalId":13261,"journal":{"name":"Iet Generation Transmission & Distribution","volume":"19 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1049/gtd2.70030","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143513456","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Firstly, the VSG-based outer loop control layer is established to mitigate the transient instability during pre-synchronization process, which consists of an active frequency control loop with a phase angle regulator and a reactive voltage control loop with an amplitude regulator. Secondly, an SMC-based inner loop control layer is designed to replace the traditional voltage and current dual loop control for robustness improvement, where the uncertain disturbance can be estimated and fed back to the controlled system for disturbance suppression. Moreover, both of the eigenvalue method based small signal stability and the Lyapunov functional based large signal stability are analysed for different control layers, and the comparative simulations are conducted between the proposed strategy and traditional pre-synchronization control as well as voltage current dual loop control, in scenarios of grid-connected voltage fluctuation and islanded load power variation.

This paper investigates the frequency dynamical behaviour of new-generation power systems composed solely of grid-following (GFL) and/or grid-forming (GFM) VSCs, without an infinitely strong bus or SG. It is found that for a system composed solely of GFL-VSC, as it lacks a frequency equilibrium point after a certain disturbance, the whole system exhibits an unusual phenomenon of frequency drifting. On the other hand, for a hybrid system composed of both GFM-VSC and GFL-VSC, as it has a frequency equilibrium point, the system can settle down to a new frequency steady-state, and the GFM-VSC and GFL-VSC show completely different behaviours in the transient process. The GFM-VSC plays a key role in the frequency dynamics, similar to the SG. Based on the inertia-centre frequency dynamics, it is observed that the GFM-VSC determines the equivalent damping of the system, and both GFM-VSC and GFL-VSC contribute to the equivalent inertia.

First, this paper presents the multi-transport hyperrectangle, which resolves the curse of dimensionality issue associated with Wasserstein ambiguity sets.
