A reasonable spacer structure helps to improve the surface electric field distribution. This paper considers the generation, migration, diffusion and recombination of free ions in GIL gas, and the nonlinear relationship between gas current density and electric field strength. A numerical model for the charge transport and accumulation in DC GIL is established. Based on this model, the surface charge accumulation and electric field distortion characteristics of cone-type spacer with different inclination angles and curvatures of the surface are investigated. The results show that the polarity of the accumulated charge on the two sides of the cone-type spacer is different from that on the inside and outside (concave and convex surface). The negative charge density in the concave surface is 1.6 times that of the positive charge density in the convex. The normal component of the electric field is the main reason for the formation of charge accumulation; The surface charge density of the cone-type spacer increases as its inclination angle increases. and there is a key position for the electric field along the both surfaces. The high-voltage side electric field decreases with the increase of the angle, and the electric field near the ground side increases with the increase of the angle; The smaller the curvature along the spacer, the higher the charge density. The research results can provide reference for structural optimization of cone-type spacer in DC GIL.","PeriodicalId":242596,"journal":{"name":"2021 Annual Meeting of CSEE Study Committee of HVDC and Power Electronics (HVDC 2021)","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131343351","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

With the improvement of power levels, the problem of twisted cables in the tower is becoming more and more serious in low-voltage parallel wind power system. Therefore, this paper proposes a novel wind power converter that can increase the outlet voltage of the generator-converter unit. The newtype converter adopts two-level converter cascade connection on the machine side and three-level converter on the grid side to form a medium and low voltage hybrid wind power converter. The medium and low voltage hybrid topology still use low voltage generators, but the increase in the voltage level of the grid-side converter reduces the number of cables required, effectively solving the problem of twisted cables. For the new type of wind power converter, this paper firstly carries out theoretical modeling, and then proposes the control strategy of the hybrid topology. Finally, the effectiveness of the control strategy is verified on the RTLAB simulation platform, which shows that the new type of converter has good performance in both steady state and transient state.","PeriodicalId":242596,"journal":{"name":"2021 Annual Meeting of CSEE Study Committee of HVDC and Power Electronics (HVDC 2021)","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115004783","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The master SVG usually has a large capacity and a low switching frequency. It adopts the indirect current control method to mainly compensate the reactive power of the grid. Due to the characteristics of the SVG converter itself, a certain degree of harmonics will also be generated during operation. This part of the harmonics and the harmonics of the grid itself are compensated by the slave SVG. In the harmonic extraction method, the harmonic extraction method based on instantaneous power theory is adopted. Because the harmonic content in the power grid is small, the capacity of the slave SVG is much smaller than that of the master SVG, so that each part can be fully utilized and has a strong economic efficiency. Finally, the effectiveness of the method proposed in this paper is verified by simulation.","PeriodicalId":242596,"journal":{"name":"2021 Annual Meeting of CSEE Study Committee of HVDC and Power Electronics (HVDC 2021)","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124413066","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The multiport CHB-SST serves as the interfacing device to interconnect different grids, which has the functions of bidirectional, power flow control, reactive power compensation, and voltage regulation. However, the power fluctuation of the power cells should be constrained by the large capacitors which in turn worsens the system power density. The second order current in the DC-link side of the CHB-SST will cause the fluctuation of the submodule (SM) capacitor voltage, affecting the capacitance value selection. Therefore, this paper proposes a method to suppress the SM capacitor voltage fluctuation of CHB-SST through fluctuating power control strategy. The control scheme passes the second order current component of the SM capacitor to the low-voltage side of the CHB-SST to reduce the voltage fluctuation of the SM capacitor, such that the capacitance can be optimized. The proposed method is verified via the MATLAB/Simulink model, proving that the fluctuation of the SM capacitor voltage can be effectively suppressed.","PeriodicalId":242596,"journal":{"name":"2021 Annual Meeting of CSEE Study Committee of HVDC and Power Electronics (HVDC 2021)","volume":"140 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122429715","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
