Damping and Incremental Energy in Thyristor Switching Circuits
نویسندگان
چکیده
Thyristor controlled reactors provide controllable inductances in utility power lines and are increasingly used for static var control and flexible AC transmission. The size of a perturbation from a nominal periodic steady state can be measured by its incremental energy. This paper shows that incremental energy of a small perturbation increases when a thyristor switches on and decreases when a thyristor switches off. This observation aids in understanding how perturbations are damped by thyristor switchings and highlights some problems with representing the small signal dynamics of thyristor controlled reactors with impedances.

متن کاملDamping and Resonance in a High Power Switching Circuit
Switching circuits with thyristor controlled reactors are used in high power systems for static VAR control and flexible AC transmission. These circuits can exhibit highly nonlinear behavior because the thyristor switch off time depends on the circuit state. This paper shows how to understand and predict damping and resonance in a basic thyristor controlled reactor circuit used for static VAR c...

VAR support should be supplied as close to the load as possible to minimize transmission losses. For voltage control and for improvement of total power factor in a distribution system the circuit- breaker switched capacitor banks can be used. The problems with this solution are the voltage steps caused by the large sizes of the capacitor banks as well as the transients caused on insertion. Thyr...
