Stability and Sensitivity Analysis of Multi-Vendor, Multi-Terminal HVDC Systems

Abstract

The stability of multi-vendor, multi-terminal HVDC systems can be analyzed in frequency domain by black-box impedance models using the generalized Nyquist stability criterion. Based on the impedance stability analysis, a multi-level sensitivity analysis approach using frequency-domain sensitivity functions is proposed to identify the root cause of potential instability. Case studies on a four-terminal HVDC system are carried out for stability and sensitivity analysis based on the impedance measurement in PSCAD. The analysis results are finally validated by electromagnetic transient simulations.
