Abstract

Abstract:

The hybrid multi-terminal HVDC transmission system combines the advantages of conventional HVDC and flexible HVDC transmission technology, which can realize the functions of high-capacity power transmission, fault ride-through and suppression of commutation failure while reducing the economic cost. However, the hybrid multi-terminal system topology is relatively complex, and the fully controlled power electronic equipment has a low ability of enduring over current. Therefore, a kind of line protection strategy based on transient current correlation coefficient for hybrid multi-terminal HVDC transmission is proposed. Current in the three ports of T-type tandem busbar is measured to calculate correlation coefficient, which can accurately identify the fault range. The simulation results show that the proposed protection scheme does not require communication, and the protection can be triggered within 1 ms. Meanwhile, it can withstand the interference of 300 Ω transition resistance and 20 dB white noise. Therefore, the proposed method can better meet the protection requirements of the hybrid multi-terminal HVDC transmission system.

Key words: hybrid multi-terminal HVDC transmission, fault characteristics, correlation, line protection
