    Author : Baris Ciftci; Hans-Peter Nee; Lennart Harnefors; Staffan Norrga; James Gross; Lars Kildehöj Rasmussen; Remus Teodorescu; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; 5G mobile communication; autonomous control; converter control; distributed control; electromagnetic interference; emerging technology; fault ride-through; modular multilevel converter MMC ; prototype; wireless control; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : The modular multilevel converter (MMC) has extensively been used in high-voltage, high-power applications such as high-voltage dc transmission systems and flexible alternating current transmission systems. The control of MMC submodules is conventionally realized using wired communication systems. READ MORE

  5. 3. Modulation, efficiency and lifetime of two-level and multilevel converters for a hydropower application

    Author : Chengjun Tang; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Pumped-storage hydropower; pulse width modulation; losses; modular multilevel converter; efficiency; variable speed; converter; lifetime; space vector modulation; thermal modelling; neutral point clamped converter;

    Abstract : Along with the integration of the renewable energy in the electrical grid, the pumped-storage hydropower has gained more and more attention due to its fast response and energy storage ability. To have a higher overall efficiency and more flexibility of the system, variable speed is preferred in the operation of the pumped-storage hydropower applications. READ MORE

  6. 4. Main Circuits, Submodules, and Auxiliary Power Concepts for Converters in HVDC Grids

    Author : Stefanie Heinig; Hans-Peter Nee; Staffan Norrga; Kalle Ilves; Rainer Marquardt; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Ac–dc power conversion; energy storage; fault tolerance; HVDC converters; HVDC grid; isolated power supply; modular multilevel converter MMC ; power system faults; silicon carbide; submodules; voltage source converter VSC ; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : In order to enable the massive introduction of renewable energies the need for high-voltage direct current (HVDC) grids is anticipated. Large, globally interconnected HVDC networks will likely be the most cost-efficient means to balance electricity demand and available generation. READ MORE

  7. 5. A new Auxiliary Converter Topology with SiC Components for Railway Applications

    Author : LUYU WANG; Industriell elektroteknik och automation; []
    Keywords : Auxiliary converter; Multilevel converter; ; Silicon Carbide transistors;

    Abstract : Smaller size and lower weight are always the targets of the power electronic product development. This work introduces two new topologies of auxiliary converters which have the feature of fewer components and fewer number of energy conversion stages comparing with the conventional auxiliary converter used in railway applications.
