Abstract
- Power electronics converters have been widely deployed in modern power systems in different voltage levels. The complex operation characteristics of power converters, which combine different control modes and various current saturation states, are also significantly changing the power systems' behavior in fault conditions. The objective of this paper is to develop a steady-state short-circuit calculation solver for power systems with power electronics without the need of detailed dynamic models. In particular, the steady-state operation equations related to the converter control are included in the system formulation. An extended Newton–Raphson (NR) solver is proposed to compute the short-circuit equilibrium point that considers converters' operation limits. Also, an iterative algorithm is presented in order to efficiently identify the current saturation states of power converters under a specific short-circuit fault scenario. Case studies have been presented with several power systems with voltage source converters (VSCs). Dynamic simulations are included to validate the accuracy of the proposed methodology. • This paper presents an extended Newton–Raphson solver to cope with the new formulation considering power converters' operation. • An iterative algorithm that identifies the current saturation state of a converter in a specific fault scenario. • The proposed methodology has been implemented in several benchmark systems with VSCs. simulation results.
