This paper presents the analyzed results of using a high-voltage directcurrent (HVDC) link based on voltage-source converter (VSC) to achieve damping improvement of four parallel-operated doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG)-based offshore wind farms (OWFs) fed to a large power grid. A frequency-domain scheme based on eigenvalue analysis is carried out and a time-domain method based on nonline...

As the complexity of power networks increases, the installation of devices such as High Voltage Direct Current links (HVDC) and Flexible AC Transmission Systems (FACTS), and the use of advanced control techniques, can be used to improve network stability. Model Predictive Control (MPC) is an example of such an advanced control technique. However, it is often impractical to implement this techni...

HVDC (high voltage direct current) transmission is an effective way to transport electrical power over long distances by using direct current. The insulation system of HVDC components has to be designed for both AC and DC field distributions. It consists of mineral oil and pressboard. The used insulation material behavior has not been completely understood under DC stress. In this paper, electr...

Phase locked loop and synchronization techniques are one of the most important issues for operating grid-interfaced converters in practical applications, which involve Distributed Power Generation Systems, Flexible AC Transmission Systems (FACTS), and High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) Transmission, and so on. This paper presents a comprehensive review of the recently developed phase locked loo...

Resonances can have negative impact on a Voltage Source Converter-High Voltage DC (VSC-HVDC) system. This paper develops dc impedance models for the rectifier and inverter stations for a VSC-HVDC system when they are viewed from a dc terminal. The impedance models take converter controllers into account. The derived impedance models are validated by comparing frequency responses of the analytic...

High-Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) systems are a feasible solution that allows the transmission of energy between several power networks. As consequence use HVDC systems, renewable sources can be integrated more easily into distribution grids and smart grids. Furthermore, contribute to improving quality (PQ) which they connected.

The Modular Multilevel Converter (MMC) topology is becoming an attractive solution for HVDC and FACTS systems. MMC structures are composed from several hundreds to thousands of half-bridge converters. Such large numbers of power switches and electrical nodes introduce important computational difficulties in electromagnetic transient (EMT) type programs. This becomes particularly more complex fo...

This paper proposes a fault-location method for voltage-source converter (VSC)-based high-voltage direct current (VSC-HVDC) systems. This method relies on the current frequency components generated by faults in the cable, and requires the arrival time of the frequency components at two terminals. The S transform is a time–frequency analysis tool that is superior to the wavelet transform in some...
