Experimental EMI study of a 3-phase 100kW 1200V Dual Active Bridge Converter using SiC MOSFETs
In this prototype, achieving full operation was prevented by false triggering of semiconductors due to large common-mode current through gate drivers.
Figures-of-Merit and current metric for the comparison of IGCTs and IGBTs in Modular Multilevel Converters
Simulation results of a MMC model and figures of merit are shown to provide consistent result, proving that the proposed figures of merit are a very simple and fast way to select the best semiconductor switch.
Unidirectional thyristor-based DC-DC converter for HVDC connection of offshore wind farms
This paper introduces a unidirectional MVDC-HVDC converter for ‘all DC’ connected offshore wind farms.
[ONLINE EVENT] Offshore HVDC Grid Technology

Measurement and behaviour of partial discharge for SF6 substitute gases in HVDC GIS/GIL
Partial discharge measurement is considered as one of the most powerful monitoring and diagnostic tools for the detection and recognition of defects for high voltage equipment.
Assessment of protection strategy options for future DC grids
This paper proposes a set of measurable Key Performance Indicators (KPI) that demonstrates how effective a protection strategy is achieving key objectives.
Dynamic control of embedded HVDC to contribute to transient stability enhancement
This paper aims to investigate the impact of the overlaid HVDC systems on stability of the surrounding AC grid.
