Short-Circuit Current Calculation Method for Power System with Renewable Energy Source and HVDC System

The short-circuit currents characteristics of renewable energy source (RES) and high voltage direct current (HVDC) system are different from the short-circuit currents characteristics of traditional synchronous generator (SG). According to the fault-ride-through (FRT) requirements of different types of RES, the steady-state short-circuit currents calculation models of doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) and inverter-interface renewable energy source (IIRES) such as photovoltaic (PV) and direct-drive permanent magnetic synchronous generator (D-PMSG) are built in this paper. Based on the converter switching function model and the HVDC control system, the calculation model of HVDC system steady-state short-circuit currents is built. Combined with RES and HVDC system short-circuit currents calculation models, a short-circuit currents calculation method for power system with multiple types RES and HVDC under ac power system fault is proposed. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed method of short-circuit currents calculation is verified by simulation cases.
