Abstract :
A numerical HVDC power network control system operating in real-time has been developed for a simulator to be used for operator training. The control system, implemented with digital signal processors (DSPs), consists of typical HVDC control functions such as the synchronizing unit, the regulation unit, the protection unit, the firing unit, the tap changer and the reactive power regulation unit. Results from the steady-state and the transient performance validation tests carried out on the IREQ power system simulator are provided
