Design, Control and Application of Modular Multilevel Converters for HVDC Transmission Systems is
a comprehensive guide to semiconductor technologies applicable for MMC
design, component sizing control, modulation, and application of the MMC
technology for HVDC transmission.
Separated into three distinct
parts, the first offers an overview of MMC technology, including
information on converter component sizing, Control and Communication,
Protection and Fault Management, and Generic Modelling and Simulation.
The second covers the applications of MMC in offshore WPP, including
planning, technical and economic requirements and optimization options,
fault management, dynamic and transient stability. Finally, the third
chapter explores the applications of MMC in HVDC transmission and Multi
Terminal configurations, including Supergrids.
Key features:
- Unique
coverage of the offshore application and optimization of MMC-HVDC
schemes for the export of offshore wind energy to the mainland.
- Comprehensive explanation of MMC application in HVDC and MTDC transmission technology.
- Detailed
description of MMC components, control and modulation, different
modeling approaches, converter dynamics under steady-state and fault
contingencies including application and housing of MMC in HVDC schemes
for onshore and offshore.
- Analysis of DC fault detection and
protection technologies, system studies required for the integration of
HVDC terminals to offshore wind power plants, and commissioning
procedures for onshore and offshore HVDC terminals.
- A set of self-explanatory simulation models for HVDC test cases is available to download from the companion website.
This
book provides essential reading for graduate students and researchers,
as well as field engineers and professionals who require an in-depth
understanding of MMC technology.
