Abstract :
The unified Newton solution used to derive converter/system interactions in the harmonic domain is extended in the paper to systems with multiple AC/DC converters in different locations. The extended solution is used to investigate potential interactions between the HVDC link and aluminium smelters in the New Zealand system. The inaccuracies of conventional direct harmonic solutions are highlighted by comparison with the results obtained with the proposed general iterative solution
