Analysis and Control of Modular Multi-Terminal DC Power Flow Controller with Fault Current Limiting Function
2021
In order to overcome the problems of power flow control and fault current limiting in multiterminal HVDC (MTDC) Grids, this paper proposes a Modular Multi-terminal DC Power Flow Controller (MM-DCPFC) with fault current limiting function. The topology structure, operation principle and equivalent circuit of MM-DCPFC are introduced, and such a structure has the advantages of modularity and scalability. The power balance mechanism is studied and a hierarchical power balance control strategy is proposed. The results show that MM-DCPC can achieve internal power exchange, which avoid the use of external power supply. The fault characteristics of MM-DCPFC are analyzed, fault current limiting and self-protection methods are proposed, and the factors affecting the current limiting capability are studied. The simulation models are established in PLECS, and the simulation results verify the effectiveness of MM-DCPFC in power flow control, fault current limiting, and scalability. In addition, a prototype is developed to validate the function and control method of MM-DCPFC.
