  • Publication number: 20210165034
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a bypass thyristor valve group inspection method and control apparatus for inspecting sub-modules in a bypass thyristor valve group, and in particular, including: dividing the bypass thyristor valve group into N sub-modules, where N is greater than or equal to 2, N is a natural number, and each sub-module is formed by connecting one or more thyristors in series; under the condition that the bypass thyristor valve group bears a normal forward voltage, sequentially triggering, by the bypass thyristor valve group control apparatus, the sub-modules according to a certain time period; detecting whether the sub-modules are capable of operating normally or not; and if not, sending an alarm signal.

  • Patent number: 10148091
    Abstract: A high voltage direct current power transmission series valve group control device, is used for regulating a series circuit having two or more valve groups provided with controllable power semiconductors respectively. Each valve group is provided with a current regulation unit and a voltage regulation unit. The current regulation unit controls a direct current current flowing through a valve group corresponding thereto, and the voltage regulation unit controls a voltage across two ends of a valve group corresponding thereto. One valve group is selected from the series valve group as a master control valve group, while the others are taken as slave control valve groups. The master control valve group selects a trigger angle output by the current regulation unit to control same, and the slave control valve group selects a trigger angle obtained after the trigger angle transmitted from the master control valve group and an output value of the voltage regulation unit pass through a subtractor to control same.

  • Patent number: 10014686
    Abstract: Provided are a commutation control method and a commutation control apparatus. The method includes: detecting whether transient disturbance in a DC transmission system satisfies a disturbance criterion condition; when the transient disturbance satisfies the disturbance criterion condition, determining a maximum trigger delay angle used in a commutation operation performed by a current converter on an inverter side of the DC transmission system, the determined maximum trigger delay angle being smaller than a maximum trigger delay angle used before the transient disturbance; and controlling the current converter on the inverter side of the DC transmission system to perform the commutation operation based on the determined maximum trigger delay angle.
