  1. 1. System Aspects and Modulation Strategies of an HVDC-based Converter System for Wind Farms

    Author : Stephan Meier; Hans-Peter Nee; Boon-Teck Ooi; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Isolated AC DC Converter; Mutual Commutation; Soft Switching; Voltage Source Converter; Cycloconverter; Modulation Strategies; Medium-Frequency Transformer; HVDC Transmission; Wind Power; Wind Farms; Electric power engineering; Elkraftteknik; Electrical engineering; Elektroteknik;

    Abstract :   In this thesis, a new HVDC-based converter system for wind farms is investigated. It is based on a mutually commutated soft-switching converter system and provides a unique integrated solution for the wind turbine generator drive systems, the wind turbine interconnection, and the power conversion for HVDC transmission.

  2. 2. On soft-switching isolated AC/DC converters without auxiliary circuit

    Author : Staffan Norrga; Stefan Östlund; Rik De Doncker; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Electrical power technology; voltage source converter; cycloconverter; isolated converter; medium frequency transformer; soft switching; modulation; commutation; wind power; electric traction; Elkraftteknik; Electric power engineering; Elkraftteknik;

    Abstract : The thesis is concerned with a class of power electronic converter systems that permit bidirectional AC/DC conversion with galvanic separation of the AC and DC sides by a transformer operating at elevated frequency. The systems consist of a capacitively snubbered voltage source converter and a cycloconverter, separated by the mentioned transformer. READ MORE

  3. 3. On Design of a Compact Primary Switched Conversion System for Electric Railway Propulsion
