In order to study the dynamic characteristics of wind farms, it is obviously impractical to take detailed wind farm model as research object. In this paper, on the principle of keeping the external characteristics of the wind farm unchanged, an aggregation study of the wind farm taking into account the submarine cable capacitance effect is given. In addition, the aggregation method of the internal parameters of the wind turbine generators (WTGs) and the collector system are given. Finally, a detailed wind farm model with 34 squirrel-cage induction generator (SCIG) WTGs and the corresponding aggregated model are established on PSCAD simulation software. The dynamic characteristics of the two models at the point of common coupling (PCC) under grid fault condition are simulated and compared. The results show that the proposed dynamic aggregation method can present the dynamic characteristics of wind farm with high accuracy, and can be popularized for other types of wind farm.","PeriodicalId":298807,"journal":{"name":"2020 4th International Conference on HVDC (HVDC)","volume":"54 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129415924","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}

By analyzing the fault characteristics of the converter control signal during the fault, drawn the conclusion that when the DC system occurs fault, from the converter dynamic regulation stage to the fault steady-state, the deviation of rectifier constant current control signal and the deviation of inverter constant current control signal will meet the positive polarity and the deviation of inverter constant extinction angle control signal will meet the negative polarity, but these polarity characteristics are not satisfied when the AC system occurs fault, therefore, the protection criterion is constructed. The simulation results show that the proposed backup protection principle has strong anti-transition-resistance ability and high reliability. Compared with the traditional differential protection, the proposed principle can reliably identify the internal fault from the converter dynamic regulation stage to the fault steady stage, which improves the reliability of the traditional HVDC line backup protection.","PeriodicalId":298807,"journal":{"name":"2020 4th International Conference on HVDC (HVDC)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129854532","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}

As the key components of SST, the conventional isolated bidirectional DC/DC converter (IBDC) is hard to guarantee high efficiency and high power density at the same time, due to the limitations of switching characteristics of semiconductor devices and high insulation requirements of medium frequency transformer (MFT). In this paper, a new IBDC topology is proposed, which is characterized by utilizing low-voltage IGBTs with excellent switching characteristics to build high voltage configuration. This helps to reduce the number of the MFTs. Meanwhile, the zero-current switching (ZCS) conditions for all the IGBTs can be guaranteed. This significantly reduce switching losses.

To analyze the influence of different PD controller gains on its output power for the typical droop and inertia control strategies, this paper takes the conventional application scenarios of PV damping electromechanical oscillation as the research example. Studies show that when the PD controller gain is amplified to the limit condition, the PV generation system will operate in the rapid power compensation (RPC) mode: based on the speed deviation polarity, the active power modulation limit (Pmppt or 0) will be used as the basis for alternate output to damp the system imbalanced power. The comparison of speed indicators shows that the RPC mode is significantly stronger than the conventional droop and inertia control for grid electromechanical oscillation damping. In view of this, this paper proposes a novel grid electromechanical oscillation damping strategy based on RPC mode, and sets the switching thresholds and corresponding active current commands for 4 operating conditions to quickly and effectively suppress the generator rotor speed oscillation phenomenon. The simulation results show that the proposed control strategy in this paper does not require a complicated control parameter tuning process, and can significantly suppress the system electromechanical oscillation, which is beneficial to ensure the power system stable operation.","PeriodicalId":298807,"journal":{"name":"2020 4th International Conference on HVDC (HVDC)","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116140068","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}

In this paper, we compare the CM harmonic suppression ability of two discontinuous pulse width modulation (DPWM) realization methods, the negative carrier flipped (NCF) method and the negative carrier shifted (NCS) method. Since the NCF method has a smaller CM voltage compared with NCS method in the zero-clamped region, we conclude that the CM harmonics with NCF method should be much smaller than those with NCS.
