Overload Capability Calculation Methods of HVDC Converter Valve
As one of the most important devices in the HVDC transmission system
the converter valve directly determines the reliability of the whole system. When the HVDC system has to operate in overload condition
the maximum current of the converter valve is defined as its overload capability to ensure the secure and reliable operation of the HVDC system. In this paper
the main factors affecting the overload capability of the converter valve are summarized
and a method for calculating overload capability of converter valve is proposed according to the thyristor junction temperature and the cooling capability of the valve cooling system. Moreover
the overload capability of the converter valve in the Anshun-Zhaoqing HVDC transmission project of the China Southern Power Grid is calculated with the roposed method.
