Objectives
Understand the converter topologies used for high-voltage direct current power transmission.
Know how to size and model an AC/DC conversion station for high-voltage direct current power transmission.
Description
This course presents the conversion topologies used for high-voltage direct current power transmission: thyristor rectifiers, voltage inverters, and modular multilevel converters. A design office project on the dimensioning of an HVDC link illustrates the course content.
Application project for the “converters for HVDC networks” course.
Half-day theme: High-power semiconductors: presentation in the form of a half-day conference given by an industry representative (ABB) on semiconductor technologies suitable for high-power converters.
Pre-requisites
Three-phase thyristor rectifiers, voltage inverters
Rules for combining switching cells and static converters.
