The recent trend of an increasing share of renewable energy sources in modern power systems, aswell as the integration of power electronics equipment, is shaping the requirements for stable gridinfrastructure. These requirements mainly come from the stabil ...
The emergence of wide-band-gap (WBG) power transistors with low conduction losses and high-speed switching speeds has paved the way for more-than-ever efficient power electronics systems and huge energy saving potentials. Likewise, power density- the ratio ...
The safe and reliable operation of modern power system imposes the need to describe and estimate the system stability through impedance-admittance measurement and identification. The integration and operation of medium voltage equipment in existing infrast ...
Condition health monitoring strategies applied to different power electronics applications are gaining popularity as early component degradation detection can trigger preventive maintenance actions before a significant fault occurs. In highly modular conve ...
Hybrid modular multilevel converter control and design for pumped hydro storage plants is presented, addressing application-specific shortcoming of conventional back-to-back half-bridge modular multilevel converter: high common-mode-voltage machine stress. ...
The paper aims at minimizing DC voltage oscillations in offshore multiterminal high-voltage direct current (HVDC) grids based on modular multilevel converters (MMCs). The DC voltage stability is a crucial factor in multiterminal HVDC networks since it is a ...
DC power supply systems utilising voltage source converters offer several advantages compared with their counterparts in marine low-voltage DC power distribution networks. In case of a two-level voltage source converter fed by a synchronous generator which ...
Series connected IGCTs find application in hard-switched commercial power converters at the MW power levels. Expanding the application of these devices to medium voltage dc-dc resonant converters is of great interest due to the IGCTs low conduction losses. ...
The dc transformers based on an LLC converter operated in open loop near resonant frequency have several crucial advantages compared to other topologies. These advantages are the stiff voltage ratio with a natural power flow, the dc grid isolation via medi ...
Power distribution systems are experiencing a largescale integration of Converter-Interfaced Distributed Energy Resources (CIDERs). This complicates the analysis and mitigation of harmonics, whose creation and propagation are facilitated by the interaction ...
