DC-link project applied to Variable Speed Drives in Subsea Power Systems
Abstract
This paper presents a project method of the direct current link in order to decouple the rectification and inversion stages present in power electronics converters in a subsea power system, showing the calculation memories of the capacitors to be used in Variable Speed Drives that drive subsea loads. In order to observe the influence of harmonics on the subsea power system and on the voltage of the direct current link, the entire system was modeled with the PSCAD/EMTDC electromagnetic transient software.
