Abstract

Different contingencies in DC grid such as converter outages lead to a current imbalance and consequently give rise to DC link voltage variations. Due to voltage variations in DC link, in particular, DC link voltage exceeding link capacity may lead damage to the link. This paper proposes DC link voltage control technique in two-phase rotating co-ordinate system. The control system is based on a fast inner current control loop controlling the AC current and the outer control loop controlling the DC link voltage. Measured DC link voltage is compared with reference DC voltage and passed through proportional integral (PI) controller which gives reference direct axis current. Real time digital simulation has been performed to validate the proposed controller.
