Interactions analysis between VSC converters and an onshore AC network

This thesis starts by addressing two modelling techniques for power systems in qd0-domain. The first technique is the state-space representation, which describes the behaviour of a physical system by means of its state variables in the time domain. The second modelling technique is the admittance ma...

The two main studied interactions between the VSC converter and the power network are related to the strength of the equivalent network and the disconnection of a power transmission line. The strength of an AC grid is normally defined by the short circuit ratio (SCR), which has negative effects on the stability of the control system of the converter. Also, the loss of a power line imposes newconstraints on the system and changes drastically the topology of the network. The simulations are performed inMATLAB-SIMULINK. Two models are created to capture the dynamics of the system. The first is a non-linear model created in SIMULINK (VSC converter and the AC grid) and the second is a linear model (VSC converter and the AC grid) based on the state space representation. The linear model is validated to assure that matches the nonlinear model whenever a small perturbation in the system occurs. Results are expressed in time-domain and in the frequency s-domain. Finally, the obtained results shows the impact of low SCRs on the stability of the system. The lower the SCR, the more prone the system is to become unstable. On the other hand, the loss of a power line limits the power transfer capabilities between the converter and the network.
