Wei Li (M’06) received the B.Eng. degree from Zhejiang University, Hangzhou, in 1996, the M.Eng. degree from the National University of Singapore, Singapore, in 2003, and the Ph.D. degree from McGill University, Montréal, QC, Canada, in 2010.Since 2007, he has been a Power System Simulation Specialist with Opal-RT Technologies, Montréal. His fields of interest are in power electronics, renewable energy, and distributed generation. His current research focuses mainly on real-time simulation and controls of modular multilevel converter high-voltage direct-current systems and flexible alternating-current transmission system devices.
Abstract
This paper analyzes the possible range of the DC currents developed by a pole-to-pole DC fault in a MMC-based HVDC system using half-bridge submodules, when the actual control and protection (C&P) scheme for the system... [ view full abstract ]
