📄 摘要(原文)

Line-commutated converter high-voltage direct current (LCC-HVDC) has proven to be a reliable technology for bulk power transmission over long distances. However, the growing penetration of converter interfaced generation (CIG) is resulting in weaker AC grids, rendering the operation of LCC-HVDC systems vulnerable and posing a serious challenge to their stability. Grid-forming (GFM) controlled voltage source converter (VSC) have been shown to provide stabilizing impact in weak grid conditions. However, the impact of GFM controlled VSCs (GFM-VSC) on stability of LCC-HVDC in weak grid conditions has not been studied in depth in the literature. In this paper, a simplified model of LCC-HVDC is proposed and validated. Then a small-signal state-space model of a system consisting of aforementioned LCC-HVDC, a GFM-VSC and an infinite grid is developed to study the interactions between different components. The small-signal stability analysis shows the stabilizing effect of the GFM-VSC on the stability of the LCC-HVDC link in weak grid condition. Furthermore, the study on the sizing of the GFM power converter reveals that even a modest share of the capacity of the GFM power converter relative to the total nominal apparent power (sum of nominal power of LCC-HVDC and the nominal apparent power of GFM-VSC) is sufficient to ensure the stability of the system, in the test system analyzed in this study. This work just focuses in small-signal stability, but it is important to highlight that other stability phenomena should also be taken into account when selecting the final size of the GFM-VSC.
