AC Fault Ride-Through Strategy of a Transformerless Soft Normally Open Point
APPLIED SCIENCES-BASEL(2022)
Abstract
This paper focuses on the soft normally open point (SNOP) which has no transformers and connects to the 10 kV distribution network through the arc suppression coil grounding mode. A mathematical model containing positive-, negative-, and zero-sequence components under AC fault is established by the circuit analysis and the sequence component decomposition. Then the voltage fluctuation mechanism at the DC side and the non-fault AC side caused by the zero-sequence voltage on the fault side is analyzed under the case without transformers. Taking the single-phase grounding fault as an example, the fluctuation formula of the DC voltage and AC voltage is deduced in detail. Based on the theoretical analysis, the zero-sequence control strategy and the sub-module improvement strategy of the modular multilevel converter (MMC) are proposed. A back-to-back SNOP simulation model is established in PSCAD/EMTDC. The simulation results verify the accuracy of the theoretical analysis, as well as the validity of zero-sequence control and MMC topology improvement strategies.
