Abstract :
This paper presents design and control of a small-scale high voltage direct current transmission (HVDC) lab prototype, which is intended to study the characteristics of the HVDC system and develop strategies to coordinate the operation of offshore wind systems with the network. At first, the configuration of the whole HVDC system is explained. The structure, the scaling approach, the DC cable model and central control user-interface are presented. Then the control strategies and selection of main circuit parameters are discussed. Finally, the validity of the design is verified by simulation and experimental results.
