Research on control strategy for AC side asymmetric fault of MMC-HVDC transmission system

When the Modular Multilevel Converter (MMC) fails on the AC side, the operating characteristics of MMC will be damaged. If the system wants to retain stable for a long time in the process of operation, it is obliged to design the control strategy in case of asymmetric fault. In this article, the con...

Description
Summary:When the Modular Multilevel Converter (MMC) fails on the AC side, the operating characteristics of MMC will be damaged. If the system wants to retain stable for a long time in the process of operation, it is obliged to design the control strategy in case of asymmetric fault. In this article, the control strategy based on feedback linearization principle is adopted to diminish the negative sequence current caused by breakdown, and a DC voltage controller is devised to suppress the fluctuation of the double frequency component under asymmetric fault conditions. The validity of the control strategy requires to be verified, the running results on PSCAD platform indicate this method is effective and feasible.
